Inhibiting glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) improves muscle function, metabolism, and bone health in many other diseases. Here, Marcella et al. found that inhibiting glycogen synthase kinase 3, alone or combined with exercise, improves muscle health and function in mouse models of Duchenne muscular dystrophy without negatively affecting insulin sensitivity or bone health.
