Abstract: The present invention relates to a use of a cell adhesion molecule-related/down-regulated by oncogene (Cdo) protein or a gene encoding the same for preventing or treating neuromuscular diseases caused by damage to motor neurons, particularly muscle stem cells and neuromuscular junctions, due to aging, oxidative stress, and the like; and a method for screening for candidates for activating the expression of Cdo. When Cdo is deleted in motor neurons or neuromuscular junctions, aggravation of damage to degenerative motor neurons due to aging, and DNA damage caused by oxidative stress and inflammation are caused, which may cause neuromuscular diseases. Thus, the diseases can be treated through overexpression and activity of the Cdo protein and the gene encoding the same.
