Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating motor neuron degenerative disease whose etiology and pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Most cases of ALS ( approximately 90%) are sporadic (SALS), occurring in the absence of genetic associations. Approximately 20% of familial ALS (FALS) cases are due to known mutations in the copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene. Molecular evid...
Parkinson's disease (PD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) share several clinical and neuropathologic features, and studies suggest that several gene mutations and polymorphisms are involved in both conditions. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is implicated in the pathogenesis of PD and ALS, and the C(-1562)T polymorphism in the MMP-9 gene leads to higher promoter activity. We therefore...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease with a complicated and poorly understood pathogenesis. Recently, alterations in the blood-Central Nervous System barrier (B-CNS-B) have been recognized as a key factor possibly aggravating motor neuron damage. The majority of findings on ALS microvascular pathology have been determined in mutant superoxide dismutase (SOD1...
IMPORTANCE Abnormalities of axonal excitability characterized by upregulation of persistent sodium (Na+) conductances and reduced potassium (K+) currents have been reported in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS) phenotypes and linked to the development of clinical features such as fasciculations and neurodegeneration. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether abnormalities of axonal ion chan...
Sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS) is a motor neuron degenerative disease of unknown etiology. Current thinking on SALS is that multiple genetic and environmental factors contribute to disease liability. Since neuronal acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are part of the glutamatergic pathway, we searched for sequence variants in CHRNA3, CHRNA4 and CHRNB4 genes, encoding neuronal nicotin...
OBJECTIVES To quantify the overall contribution of mutations in the currently known amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) genes in a large cohort of sporadic patients and to make genotype-phenotype correlations. METHODS Screening for SOD1, TARDBP, FUS, ANG, ATXN2, OPTN, and C9ORF72 was carried out in 480 consecutive patients with sporadic ALS (SALS) and in 48 familial ALS (FALS) index patients ...
The advent of next-generation sequencing technology is expected to accelerate the identification of novel genes, and this technology will likely supersede Sanger sequencing. Thus, genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are performed more routinely in an effort to identify disease-susceptibility genes for sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Previously, a Japanese team conducted a larg...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a loss of voluntary movement over time, leading to paralysis and death. While 10% of ALS cases are inherited or familial (FALS), the majority of cases (90%) are sporadic (SALS) with unknown etiology. Approximately 20% of FALS cases are genetically linked to a mutation in the anti-oxidizing enzyme, superoxide dis...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a rapidly progressing fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by the presence of protein inclusions within affected motor neurons. Endoplasmic reticulum stress leading to apoptosis was recently recognized to be an important process in the pathogenesis of sporadic human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis as well as in transgenic models of mutant superoxide dismu...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized phenotypically by progressive weakness and neuropathologically by loss of motor neurons. Phenotypically, there is marked heterogeneity. Typical ALS has mixed upper motor neuron (UMN) and lower motor neuron (LMN) involvement. Primary lateral sclerosis has predominant UMN involvement. Progressive muscular atrophy has predominant LMN involvement...
