Atrophin-1 Antisense Oligonucleotide Provides Robust Protection from Pathology in a Fully Humanized DRPLA Model
2025-03-18
Abstract excerpt
Dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease arising from a CAG repeat expansion in the atrophin-1 (ATN1) gene. Because DRPLA, like many repeat expansion disorders (REDs), arises predominantly from toxic gain-of-function mechanisms, we hypothesized that ATN1 knockdown would have therapeutic potential. To test this, we established the first fully-humanized mouse model of a RED,...
