Role of p38 and STAT5 Kinase Pathways in the Regulation of Survival of Motor Neuron Gene Expression for Development of Novel Spinal Muscular Atrophy Therapeutics
Spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease which is characterized by the loss of α motor neurons from the anterior horn of the spinal cord, resulting in progressive muscle atrophy. The loss of functional Survival motor neuron (SMN) protein due to mutations or del...
