Analysis of aminoaciduria of Duchenne type muscular dystrophy patients and of their mothers was performed.
Relation between the aminoaciduria and activity of serum creatin phosphokinase was also studied.
1) Excretion of arginine was much in dystrophic children and glycine was less than controls.
2) Urinary arginine and histidine-lysine fraction level of mothers, who were possible and probable carriers, was higher than controls and glycine was lower.
3) Mothers especially having higher serum creative phosphokinase seemed to have the above mentioned tendency of aminoaciduria.
