Selective modulation of NaV channel gating counteracts aberrant hyperexcitability and rescues motor function and survival in a model of spinal muscular atrophy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a motor neuron disease caused by SMN1 gene loss, leading to reduced survival motor neuron (SMN) protein and progressive motor neuron degeneration. Although SMN‐restoring therapies improve outcomes, residual disease burden and non‐curative efficacy underscore the need for complementary treatments ...
