متن کاملEighteen Years with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Type 1
INTRODUCTION SMA-1, also known as Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, is the most common neuromuscular disease of hypotonic newborns. Its incidence is over 1 per 8000 births and is a common cause of sudden infant death syndrome. It is characterized by the degeneration of the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord and of the motor nuclei in the lower brainstem (1). About 99% of patients have deletions in ...
متن کاملO-27: Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis in Prevention of Genetic Diseases -Diagnostic of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)
Background: Preimplantation genetic diagnosis - PGD is currently an established procedure allowing genetic research of oocyte or embryo before implantation to the uterus. Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disorder, being the second most common lethal autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians, after cystic fibrosis. There are three clinically different types of which type I (W...
متن کاملSMA-MAP: A Plasma Protein Panel for Spinal Muscular Atrophy
OBJECTIVES Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) presents challenges in (i) monitoring disease activity and predicting progression, (ii) designing trials that allow rapid assessment of candidate therapies, and (iii) understanding molecular causes and consequences of the disease. Validated biomarkers of SMA motor and non-motor function would offer utility in addressing these challenges. Our objectives w...
متن کاملSpinal Muscular Atrophy: A Short Review Article
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder which affect nervous system and is characterized with progressive distal motor neuron weakness. The survival motor neuron (SMN) protein level reduces in patients with SMA. Two different genes code survival motor neuron protein in human genome. Skeletal and intercostal muscles denervation lead to weakness, hypotony, hyporeflexia, respiratory fa...
