Chronic proximal spinal muscular atrophy of childhood and adolescence: sex influence. [PDF]

Journal of Medical Genetics, 1984
Segregation analysis was performed on 354 cases of chronic proximal spinal muscular atrophy of childhood and adolescence (CPSMA) in the total series and in a number of subgroups formed according to the age at onset and sex. The analysis provided evidence of sex influence in the series studied, particularly in a subgroup of the milder form of the ...

Self-oligomerization regulates stability of survival motor neuron protein isoforms by sequestering an SCF^Slmb degron [PDF]

, 2017
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by homozygous mutations in human SMN1. Expression of a duplicate gene (SMN2) primarily results in skipping of exon 7 and production of an unstable protein isoform, SMNΔ7.

Chronic generalized spinal muscular atrophy of infancy and childhood: Arrested Werdnig-Hoffmann disease [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1973
Recent studies have shown that the acute fatal form of infantile spinal muscular atrophy (acute Werdnig-Hoffmann disease or spinal muscular atrophy Type I) is a distinct genetic and clinical entity. This has prompted clinical re-examination of the disease known as `arrested Werdnig-Hoffmann disease' which hitherto was thought to be a spectrum variant ...

UBA1/GARS-dependent pathways drive sensory-motor connectivity defects in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]

, 2018
Deafferentation of motor neurons as a result of defective sensory-motor connectivity is a critical early event in the pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, but the underlying molecular pathways remain unknown.

Confirmation of Clinical Diagnosis in Requests for Prenatal Prediction of SMA Type I [PDF]

, 1993
The recent discovery of a major SMA-locus in the chromosomal region 5q makes it possible to carry out prenatal DNA studies in families in which a child with SMA type I has been born.

Electrophysiological Changes in Pediatric Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Results From an Observational Study. [PDF]

Muscle Nerve
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Previous studies of children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have focused on the ulnar and median nerves, while lower‐limb and proximal motor nerves remain insufficiently characterized. This study aimed to evaluate compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes in upper‐ and lower‐limb motor nerves in children with SMA

Spinal muscular atrophy: Factors that modulate motor neurone vulnerability. [PDF]

, 2017
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a leading genetic cause of infant death, is a neurodegenerative disease characterised by the selective loss of particular groups of motor neurones in the anterior horn of the spinal cord with concomitant muscle weakness. To

Onasemnogene Abeparvovec in Type I Spinal Muscular Atrophy: 24‐Month Follow‐Up From the Italian Registry

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Onasemnogene abeparvovec (OA) is an AAV9‐based gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy type I (SMA I). Real‐world outcomes show increased response variability compared to clinical trials, and follow‐up data beyond 12–18 months are limited.

Subtle mutations in the SMN1 gene in Chinese patients with SMA: p.Arg288Met mutation causing SMN1 transcript exclusion of exon7 [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common neuromuscular disorder resulting in death during childhood. Around 81 ~ 95% of SMA cases are a result of homozygous deletions of survival motor neuron gene 1 (SMN1) gene or gene conversions ...
