Longitudinal trajectory of selected examples of DMD serum protein biomarkers and their association with age. CK-M remained relatively stable over time in young GC-naïve DMD patients (p = 0.506) and in controls (p = 0.622) within the age range studied. Myosin-binding protein C declined over time in DMD (p = 0.0477) and remained unchanged over time in controls. Gelsolin neared significance in its association with age (p = 0.0598); it decreased over time in untreated DMD patients while slightly increasing with age in controls. Alanine aminotransferase-1 while elevated in DMD relative to control remained stable over time in both DMD (p = 0.607) and controls. Green lines are DMD patients (n = 12) and black lines are healthy controls (n = 5). The dashed line represent the regression line in each group. P values are adjusted for multiple testing.
