Differential corticospinal tract degeneration in homozygous ‘D90A’ SOD-1 ALS and sporadic ALS
BACKGROUND The homogeneous genotype and stereotyped phenotype of a unique familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (patients homozygous for aspartate-to-alanine mutations in codon 90 (homD90A) superoxide dismutase 1) provides an ideal model for studying genotype/phenotype interactions and pathological features compared with heterogeneous apparently sporadic ALS. The authors aimed to...
متن کاملA novel SOD1 splice site mutation associated with familial ALS revealed by SOD activity analysis.
More than 145 mutations have been found in the gene CuZn-Superoxide dismutase (SOD1) in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The vast majority are easily detected nucleotide mutations in the coding region. In a patient from a Swiss ALS family with half-normal erythrocyte SOD1 activity, exon flanking sequence analysis revealed a novel thymine to guanine mutation 7 bp upstream of ex...
متن کاملDifferential expression of EC-SOD, Mn-SOD and CuZn-SOD in rat lung exposed to crystalline silica.
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are antioxidant enzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide into hydrogen peroxide. There are 3 kinds of isozymes: extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD), manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) and copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (CuZn-SOD). To examine the expression of SOD isozymes in lungs injured by crystalline silica, we...

متن کاملfamilial als and kennedy’s disease
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (als) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder of the motor neurons in the spinal cord, brainstem, and motor cortex. ten percent of als cases are familial with both autosomal dominant and recessive modes of inheritance. mutations in the copper/zinc superoxidedismutase-1 (sod-1) gene, the first gene linked with als, result in sod-1 gene accounting for ~ 20% of fa...
