C9orf72 Gene Role Analyzed in Spinal Muscular Atrophy
A recent study entitled “Analysis of the C9orf72 gene in spinal muscular atrophy patients” published in the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Degenerations journal shows no association between a ALS hexanucleotide repeat in the C9orf72 gene with SMA phenotype. Two of the most common motor neuron diseases…
