Muscular dystrophy results from a deficiency in dystrophin protein, causing calcium influx into muscle cells and enzymatic breakdown of muscle fibers.
Muscular dystrophy is caused by a lack of dystrophin protein, leading to calcium leakage into muscle cells and subsequent dissolution of muscle fibers by enzymes.
