Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a condition that affects the nerves in an area of the spinal cord called the anterior horn. These nerve cells become damaged, breaking the link between the brain and the muscles. As a result, the muscles can't be used and become wasted or atrophied.
The JTSMA is proud to be a Founder Member of The International Alliance for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (IASMA) and the International SMA Patient Registry |
