Nusinersen in SMA 2 and 3 [PDF]
Nusinersen is an antisense oligonucleotide which promotes the expression of full-length SMN protein by modifying the splicing of SMN2 pre-messenger RNA. Nusinersen was approved by FDA in 2016 to be used in all forms of SMA, based on a clinical trial in SMA 1.1 Two years later, a clinical trial in later-onset SMA was published.2 Ability to walk ...

With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.

New insights into applications of base editor in hereditary disorders
Abstract Hereditary disorders are a group of diseases caused by genetic mutations or chromosomal variations. Although the incidence of each genetic disorder is relatively low, patients affected by the disease generally experience a range of severe symptoms, including blindness, disability, and even premature death. In addition, the available treatments

Fatigue in adults with spinal muscular atrophy under treatment with nusinersen [PDF]
Abstract5q-Associated spinal muscular atrophy is a hereditary neuromuscular disease leading to progressive muscle weakness in which fatigue occurs and affects quality of life. Treatment with the antisense oligonucleotide nusinersen has been shown to improve motor function. Fatigue can be measured within the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS).

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The biological changes in motor neurons and motor axons that correlate with the clinical benefits of nusinersen, an antisense oligonucleotide, in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate changes in axonal excitability and motor unit number estimation (MUNE) parameters following a
