Abstract Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) results from a deficiency of the survival motor neuron (SMN) protein. Zolgensma, an adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based SMN1 gene-replacement therapy, is approved for SMA, though its long-term efficacy and safety remain uncertain. This study compares a Zolgensma-like benchmark vector with a 2nd-generation vector featuring a codon-optimized SMN1 transgene under the control of an endogenous SMN1 promoter.
Abstract FOXG1 syndrome is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by microcephaly, profound intellectual disability with communication deficits including lack of speech, impaired social interaction, increased anxiety, hyperkinetic/dyskinetic movements, seizures and abnormal sleep patterns. Mutations in a single allele of the FOXG1 gene cause disease, likely due to loss-of-function.
