In the present study, we investigated whether omega-3 would be effective against dystrophic cardiomyopathy at later stages (13 and 17 mo) of the disease. ⋯ The present study suggests that omega-3 may be useful in ameliorating dystrophic cardiomyopathy and diaphragm dystrophy in mdx mice at later stages of the disease, further supporting the use of omega-3 in DMD clinical trials.
