Major Symptoms of GM1 Gangliosidosis

Gangliosidosis, GM1, is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons and various motor neuron-related symptoms. The major symptoms include progressive muscle weakness and wasting, difficulty with movement and coordination, and progressive loss of fine motor skills. The disease can also cause changes in the brain, including the loss of motor neurons and their nerve-cellular structure. Additionally, it may result in changes in the brain's protein structure, leading to changes in the brain's electrical activity.
