Nusinersen sodium
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Nusinersen sodium is an antisense oligonucleotide active molecule. Nusinersen sodium modifies the pre-messenger RNA splicing of the SMN2 gene, thereby promoting the production of full-length SMN protein. Nusinersen sodium improves spinal muscular atrophy.
