Molecular And Epidemiological Characterization Of SMN Genes In Cuban Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (AME) is a neuromuscular disease of autosomal recessive inheritance with variable expressivity, characterized by degeneration and loss of the anterior horn neurons of the spinal cord and brainstem, resulting in progressive symmetric muscle weakness. The main cause of this dis...
