Exploring Ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay: Breakthrough in Gene Therapy

Wed, 07/03/2024 - 10:22
<p>Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS) is a rare hereditary disease that significantly impacts motor control, coordination, and stiffness, particularly in the legs. This condition, which first appears in children from two to five years old and progresses slowly, was initially identified in the Charlevoix-Saguenay region of Quebec in 2000. Though rare, affecting only one in 1,500 people in the region and with roughly 320 cases in Quebec, ARSACS is increasingly recognized globally as the second most common form of Ataxia.</p>
