Innovating spinal muscular atrophy models in the therapeutic era

Ilaria Signoria,
W. Ludo van der Pol,
Ewout J. N. Groen

Abstract: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a severe, monogenetic, neuromuscular disease. A thorough understanding of its genetic cause and the availability of robust models has led to the development and approval of three gene-targeting therapies. This is a unique and exciting development for the field of neuromuscular diseases, many of which remain untreatable. The development of therapies for SMA not only opens the door to future therapeutic possibilities for other genetic neuromuscular diseases, but also informs us a… Show more

“…However, AAV9 expression in mouse models is not always directly translatable to humans. This 2nd generation vector will therefore also need further testing in more models of SMA (Signoria et al, 2023 ), including non-human primates, and eventually in clinical trials.…”
