AAV9-mediated SMN gene therapy rescues cardiac desmin but not lamin A/C and elastin dysregulation in Smn2B/- spinal muscular atrophy mice Human Molecular Genetics (2023)
Journal Article
Brown, S., Šoltić, D., Synowsky, S. A., Shirran, S. L., Chilcott, E., Shorrock, H. K., …Fuller, H. (2023). AAV9-mediated SMN gene therapy rescues cardiac desmin but not lamin A/C and elastin dysregulation in Smn2B/- spinal muscular atrophy mice Human Molecular Genetics. Human Molecular Genetics, Article ddad121. https://doi.org/10.1093/hmg/ddad121

Structural, functional and molecular cardiac defects have been reported in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) patients and mouse models. Previous quantitative proteomics analyses demonstrated widespread molecular defects in the severe Taiwanese SMA mouse...

Enhanced expression of the human Survival motor neuron 1 gene from a codon-optimised cDNA transgene in vitro and in vivo (2023)
Journal Article
Nafchi, N. A. M., Chilcott, E. M., Brown, S., Fuller, H. R., Bowerman, M., & Yáñez-Muñoz, R. J. (2023). Enhanced expression of the human Survival motor neuron 1 gene from a codon-optimised cDNA transgene in vitro and in vivo. Gene Therapy, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41434-023-00406-0

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease particularly characterised by degeneration of ventral motor neurons. Survival motor neuron (SMN) 1 gene mutations cause SMA, and gene addition strategies to replace the faulty SMN1 copy are a t...

A Meta-summary and Bioinformatic Analysis Identified Interleukin 6 as a Master Regulator of COVID-19 Severity Biomarkers (2022)
Journal Article
Ghanem, M., Owen, S., Mohamed, A., & Fuller, H. (2022). A Meta-summary and Bioinformatic Analysis Identified Interleukin 6 as a Master Regulator of COVID-19 Severity Biomarkers. Cytokine, 159, Article 156011. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cyto.2022.156011

With the rising demand for improved COVID-19 disease monitoring and prognostic markers, studies have aimed to identify biomarkers using a range of screening methods. However, the selection of biomarkers for validation from large datasets may result i...

The proteome signatures of fibroblasts from patients with severe, intermediate and mild spinal muscular atrophy show limited overlap (2022)
Journal Article
Owen, S., Kline, R., Synowsky, S., Shirran, S., Sillence, K., Claus, P., …Holt, I. (2022). The proteome signatures of fibroblasts from patients with severe, intermediate and mild spinal muscular atrophy show limited overlap. Cells, https://doi.org/10.3390/cells11172624

Most research to characterise the molecular consequences of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have focused on SMA I. Here, proteomic profiling of skin fibroblasts from severe (SMA I), intermediate (SMA II), and mild (SMA III) patients, alongside age-matc...
