Methylation levels of SLC23A2 and NCOR2 genes correlate with spinal muscular atrophy severity.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a monogenic neurodegenerative disorder subdivided into four different types. Whole genome methylation analysis revealed 40 CpG sites associated with genes that are significantly differentially methylated between SMA patients and healthy individuals of the same age. T...
