Plastin 3 Promotes Motor Neuron Axonal Growth and Extends Survival in a Mouse Model of Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a devastating childhood motor neuron disease. SMA is caused by mutations in the survival motor neuron gene (SMN1), leading to reduced levels of SMN protein in the CNS. The actin-binding protein plastin 3 (PLS3) has been reported as a modifier for SMA, making it a pot...
