Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive loss of spinal motor neurons. While the aetiological mechanisms underlying the disease remain poorly understood, oxidative stress is a central component of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and contributes to motor neuron injury.

متن کاملRole for terminal complement activation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis disease progression.
Lobsiger et al. (1) recently demonstrated that superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) transgenic mice deficient in complement components C1q and C3 do not have extended survival, concluding that global complement activation does not affect overall disease in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Complement activation has long been implicated in the pathogenesis of ALS, with numerous clinical and animal s...
