Establishment of a humanized SCA2 mouse model carrying a CAA disruption preventing CAG repeat expansion in pathogenic genes

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we established a mouse model in which CAG repeats do not undergo microsatellite instability (MSI) across generations. A humanized ATXN2 cDNA with four CAA interruptions within 73 CAG expansions was inserted into the Rosa26 locus of C57BL/6J mice. At the same time, a 23 CAG control mouse model was also generated.

Considerations for Treatment in Clinical Care of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Patients

open access: yesChildren
Spinal Muscular Atrophy is a neurodegenerative disease which can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, and in some cases death. There are many factors that contribute to the severity of symptoms and those factors can be used to determine the best course of
