Nusinersen Sodium
A sodium salt form of nusinersen, an antisense oligonucleotide that increases production of functional SMN protein by modifying splicing of the SMN2 gene, used to treat spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). It is administered by intrathecal injection to reach the spinal cord directly.
Cơ chế tác dụng
