No, there is ABSOLUTELY no cure for DMD (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy) in my knowledge.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne's muscular dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rare genetic disorder that primarily affects males. Due to the severity of the condition, there are no famous individuals known to have had Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The missing molecule in Duchenne muscular dystrophy is dystrophin, which is a protein that helps maintain the structure and function of muscle cells. In individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, mutations in the DMD gene lead to a deficiency or absence of dystrophin protein.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy was first described by the French neurologist Guillaume Duchenne in 1861. He conducted extensive studies on the disease, leading to its eponymous designation.
yes
It is a recessive X linked form of muscular dystrophy
Muscular dystrophy is a group of genetic disorders characterized by muscle weakening and wasting, while Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a specific type of muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. DMD is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy, typically affecting boys and leading to progressive muscle weakness and loss of function.
