Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in SMN1 (encoding survival motor neuron protein (SMN)). Reduced expression of SMN leads to loss of α-motor neurons, severe muscle weakness and often early death. Standard-of-care recommendations for multidisciplinary supportive care of SMA were established in the past few

Spinal muscular atrophies (SMA) are characterized by degeneration of lower motor neurons associated with muscle paralysis and atrophy. Childhood SMA is a common recessive autosomal disorder and represents one of the most common genetic causes of death in childhood. The pathophysiology remains unknown, and no curative treatment is available so far.

Spinal muscular atrophies (SMA) are genetic disorders characterized by degeneration of lower motor neurons. The most frequent form is caused by mutations of the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1). The identification of this gene greatly improved diagnostic testing and family-planning options of SMA families.

Spinal muscular atrophies (SMA) result in progressive degeneration of the anterior horn cells. Most patients present in infancy and childhood but later presentations are known. The condition is inexorably progressive and reduces quality and span of life. Survival motor neuron gene abnormalities are most common, but other genetic abnormalities have been

Spinal muscular atrophies (SMAs) are hereditary degenerative disorders of lower motor neurons associated with progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Proximal 5q SMA is caused by decreased levels of the survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein and is the most common genetic cause of infant mortality.

The history of the spinal muscular atrophies (SMA) began in the 1890s with Guido Werdnig and Johann Hoffmann. Together, their papers present a rather complete picture of the clinical and pathologic aspects of infantile SMA: onset during the first year of life, occurrence in siblings with normal parents, progressive floppiness and weakness, hand tremor,

Proximal childhood spinal muscular atrophy is a common autosomal recessive disorder that results in degeneration of lower motor neurons of the spinal cord. The defective gene, survival of motor neuron, encodes a novel protein with a putative role in RNA metabolism.
