    A one-time intravenous infusion of the high dose of gene therapy extended the survival of patients with spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (SMA1) in a Phase 1 clinical trial, according to a study published Nov. 1, 2017 in the New England Journal of Medicine. This animation describes how the process works.

    Am so proud with such a treatment and I hope my son whose also diagnosed with SMA1 could be treated with spinraza , he's 3 years now and we are suffering from the impact of the disease emotionally and financially and living in a developing country with such a disease is a struggle. Am always praying for him and for a chance of proper treatment. Please help us.

      Angela Philip you go to your childs neurologist and ask for treatment options for SMA and they will tell you spinraza or zolgensma (depending on where you are and what treatments are available there) they will submit a request to your insurance and then your insurance will either approve it or deny it. You can repeal a number of times if they say no. I hope you have success in getting this gene therapy good luck

One thing I noticed is he is moving more since his first treatment which is a blessing.. hoping to get him approved for zolgensma soon . I'll be praying for you and your family and hope the best for yall.

      Unfortunately everything new is expensive :( Governments should support it because the company spent a hell lot of money for their research, production is also very expensive as it’s not possible to mass-produce this virus effectively so drug’s self cost is very high. Without being funded, the company will eventually went bankrupt and will not be able to fund further researches. I hope that eventually it will be possible to decrease the cost to help more children.

    since it says it does not integrate with the native gene. how does it regulates to limit the synthesize of the gene without being in the chromosome? how does it works epigenetically?

    • @-m7k0z7-9
      @-m7k0z7-9 5 лет назад

      I think, If you can make the proper gene for the synthesis of that specific protein for an essential cell (in the lab). It doesn't have to be in the chromosomes, since they already lack the wanted gene for that protein.

    • @SaucyNetworkEntertainment
      @SaucyNetworkEntertainment 5 лет назад

      I am guessing its a plasmid because a double stranded piece of DNA that isnt circular is more prone to being eaten at the ends. Either that or it has some form of capping going on to protect the ends. A plasmid (circular bit of double stranded DNA) is being copied just like the entire genome is being copied during cell division. If it isnt copied, there are certain factors that mitigate the transcription and translation of that piece of DNA to make the protein needed for function. There are many more t herapies in the making. CRISPR/Cas9 is currently being thought of as a future editing technique where they basically cut out the defective gene, and together with the molecular scissors they also include the correct version of the gene that the cell can put in place of it.

    • @ConnorRooney1
      @ConnorRooney1 3 года назад

      Well, that's the thing with gene therapy. Researchers use preclinical models to assess feasibility, efficacy, safety and transgene expression. During dose escalation phases, researchers measure transgene expression to get an idea of what dosage is required for long-term expression. There are also multiple vectors in which they use to optimise gene expression too. Viral vector selection and optimisation is key to transgene expression.
