Fantastic collaboration with the Basso & Pennuto labs! Targeting AR co-activators Lsd1/Prmt6 to treat #SBMA #KennedyDisease nature.com/articles/s4146…

Kennedy's disease, caused by a CAG expansion, is considered rare (1:33K males). We found a 1:3K mutation frequency in >110K X chromosomes, predicting a 1:6.8K prevalence. Why this discrepancy? Reduced penetrance or misdiagnosis? check our paper Brain doi.org/10.1093/brain/…

🧠 Neuroscience has joined the conversation! Today A. Prof Carlo Rinaldi Carlo Rinaldi hosts the first Neuro-theme talk in the IDRM Seminar Series with speaker Prof Jernej Ule, King's College London To join us via Teams, visit OxTalks: talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/series/i…
