Restoration of early postnatal synaptic dysregulation rescues polyglutamine-mediated motor neuron degeneration in mice
2024-06-12
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the androgen receptor (AR). Here, we show that polyglutamine-expanded AR accumulates in the nucleus of motor neurons and induces aberrant up-regulation of glutamatergic synaptic genes, mediated by a master transcriptional repressor, Rest, during earl...
