Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a severe neurodegenerative muscular disease caused by the homozygous loss of survival of motor neuron 1 (SMN1) genes. SMA patients exhibit marked skeletal muscle (SKM) loss, eventually leading to death.

Restoration of SMN in Schwann cells reverses myelination defects and improves neuromuscular function in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease caused by low levels of SMN protein, primarily affecting lower motor neurons. Recent evidence from SMA and related conditions suggests that glial cells can influence disease severity.

Therapeutic approaches for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive muscle wasting and loss of muscle function due to severe motor neuron dysfunction, secondary to mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene.
