Mashup Score: 2
Collapse all Expand all Background Motor neuron disease (MND), also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that may cause dysphagia, as well as limb weakness, dysarthria, emotional lability, and respiratory failure. Since normal salivary production is 0.5 L to 1.5 L daily, loss of salivary clearance due to dysphagia leads to salivary…

Mashup Score: 3De novo mutations in SOD1 are a cause of ALS - PubMed - 2 year(s) ago
De novo mutations are a cause of sporadic ALS and may also be underpinning smaller families with few affected ALS cases. It was not possible to ascertain if the origin of the de novo mutations was parental germline, zygotic or postzygotic during embryonal development. All ALS patients should be offe …

Mashup Score: 1Role of genetics in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a large cohort study in Chinese mainland population - 3 year(s) ago
Background A large number of new causative and risk genes for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) have been identified mostly in patients of European ancestry. In contrast, we know relatively little regarding the genetics of ALS in other ethnic populations. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the genetics of ALS in an unprecedented large cohort of Chinese mainland population…

Mashup Score: 1Integrative genetic analysis of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis spinal cord implicates glial activation and suggests new risk genes - 3 year(s) ago
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressively fatal neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. We used 380 post-mortem tissue RNA-seq transcriptomes from 154 ALS cases and 49 control individuals from cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spinal cord segments to investigate the gene expression response to ALS. We observed an increase in microglia and…
