Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by mutations/deletions within the SMN1 gene and characterized by loss of lower motor neurons and skeletal muscle atrophy. SMA is clinically heterogeneous, with disease ranging from severe to mild. Here, we identify a critical threshold of Smn that dictates onset of SMA in the intermediate Smn 2B/− mouse model. With about 15% normal level of Smn...
Cardiac involvement in Duchenne muscular dystrophy is asymptomatic until function is severely affected. Little is known about its evolution, and few animal models are available to study potential treatments. We therefore examined cardiac function and pathology in mdx/utrn −/− dystrophin/utrophin-deficient mice. Decreased left ventricular fractional shortening and ejection fraction, as well...
