Spinal Muscular Atrophy autophagy profile is tissue-dependent: differential regulation between muscle and motoneurons

Abstract Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular genetic disease caused by reduced survival motor neuron (SMN) protein. SMN is ubiquitous and deficient levels cause spinal cord motoneurons (MNs) degeneration and muscle atrophy. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which SMN reduction in muscle co...
