[Spinal muscular atrophy: SMN protein deficiency]M Jedrzejowska
Neurol Neurochir Pol 35:289-97. 2001..The SMN protein level was shown to be 100-fold reduced in spinal cord of SMA 1 patients...
Incidence of spinal muscular atrophy in Poland--more frequent than predicted?Maria Jedrzejowska
Neuromuscular Unit, Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland
Neuroepidemiology 34:152-7. 2010..It allows for reliable epidemiological studies which are of importance to demography and genetic counseling...
Phenotype modifiers of spinal muscular atrophy: the number of SMN2 gene copies, deletion in the NAIP gene and probably gender influence the course of the diseaseMaria Jedrzejowska
Neuromuscular Unit, Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warszawa, Poland
Acta Biochim Pol 56:103-8. 2009..In three patients, we observed genotypes atypical for the chronic forms of SMA: two patients with SMA3a and 3b had a deletion of the NAIP gene, and a third patient with SMA2 had one copy of the SMN2 gene...
Unaffected patients with a homozygous absence of the SMN1 geneMaria Jedrzejowska
Neuromuscular Unit, Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland
Eur J Hum Genet 16:930-4. 2008..Our findings as well as those of other authors show that an increased number of SMN2 copies in healthy carriers of the biallelic SMN1 deletion is an important SMA phenotype modifier, but probably not the only one...
Homozygous deletion in the SMN1 gene in asymptomatic individual - genetic counselling issues in SMA-risk familiesMaria Jedrzejowska
Zespół Nerwowo Mieśniowy, Instytut Medycyny Doświadczalnej i Klinicznej im M Mossakowskiego, Warszawa
Med Wieku Rozwoj 15:126-31. 2011..It also meets inclusion criteria as regards optional invasive prenatal diagnostic testing in families with a high (.25%) risk of the condition being present in the off spring...
[Pseudodominant inheritance of spinal muscular atrophy--father and son suffering from SMA]Maria Jedrzejowska
Zespół Badawczo Leczniczy Chorób Nerwowo Mieśniowych, Instytut Medycyny Doświadczanej i Klinicznej PAN, ul Pawinskiego 5, 02 106 Warszawa
Neurol Neurochir Pol 40:446-9. 2006..In both father and son, genetic analysis showed biallelic deletion of exons 7 and 8 in the SMN1 gene. The boy's mother is a carrier of the deletion at the SMA locus. Quantitative analysis revealed one copy of the SMN1 gene...
Application of a rapid non-invasive technique in the molecular diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)Maria Jedrzejowska
Neuromuscular Unit, Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Science, Warsaw
Neurol Neurochir Pol 39:89-94. 2005..The aim of our study was to estimate the frequency of the common biallelic exon 7 SMN1 deletion in our Polish SMA cohort and implement a test for assessing a molecular defect at the SMN1 locus versus defects in the other genes...
[Identification of T274I mutation in the SMN1 gene in a patient with spinal muscular atrophy]Maria Jedrzejowska
Zespol Badawczo Leczniczy Chorob Nerwowo Miesniowych, Instytut Medycyny Doswiadczalnej i Klinicznej, Banacha 1a, 02 097 Warszawa, Poland
Med Wieku Rozwoj 6:319-27. 2002..All patients fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for SMA, as defined by the International SMA Consortium, without deletion of exon SMN1 gene, should be analysed using direct sequencing...
[Prenatal diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) -- indications, restrictions, interpretation of results]Maria Jedrzejowska
, Polska Akademia Nauk, , 02-106 Warszawa, Poland
Med Wieku Rozwoj 8:651-61. 2004..The negative result should he then interpreted individually. Until the carrier test will not he introduced to routine procedures. prenatal diagnosis can be also offered to families at relatively low risk of SMA...
A patient with both Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT 1A) and mild spinal muscular atrophy (SMA 3)Maria Jedrzejowska
Neuromuscular Unit, Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Polish Academy of Sciences, ul Pawinskiego 5, 02 106 Warsaw, Poland
Neuromuscul Disord 18:339-41. 2008..Her electrophysiological testing showed chronic neurogenic changes in proximal muscles that are typical for SMA, but also slowed conduction velocity in motor and sensory fibers that is typical for demyelinating neuropathy...
Nonsense-mediated messenger RNA decay of survival motor neuron 1 causes spinal muscular atrophyLars Brichta
Institute of Human Genetics, and Center for Molecular Medicine Cologne, University of Cologne, Kerpener Str 34, 50931, Cologne, Germany
Hum Genet 123:141-53. 2008..This study provides first evidence that NMD of SMN1 transcripts is responsible for the molecular basis of disease in a subset of SMA patients...
