ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated viral (AAV) vectors for gene therapy are becoming integral to modern medicine, providing therapeutic options for diseases once deemed incurable. Currently, viral vector purification is a critical bottleneck in the gene therapy industry, impacting product efficacy and safety as well as accessibility and cost to patients ...

Abstract Votoplam is a novel, orally bioavailable, small molecule HTT gene splicing modifier that is being developed for the treatment of Huntington's disease. This was a single dose, open‐label, two‐period, crossover food effect study that evaluated the effect of high‐ and low‐fat meals on 20 mg votoplam in healthy participants. There was a washout of

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Distinct domains of the spinal muscular atrophy protein SMN are required for targeting to Cajal bodies in mammalian cells. [PDF]
Mutations of the survival motor neuron gene SMN1 cause the inherited disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The ubiquitous SMN protein facilitates the biogenesis of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs).
