Plasma Neurofilament Heavy Chain Levels Correlate to Markers of Late Stage Disease Progression and Treatment Response in SOD1(G93A) Mice that Model ALS [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder characterised by progressive degeneration of motor neurons leading to death, typically within 3–5 years of symptom onset. The diagnosis of ALS is largely reliant

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

The Lancet, 2011
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an idiopathic, fatal neurodegenerative disease of the human motor system. In this Seminar, we summarise current concepts about the origin of the disease, what predisposes patients to develop the disorder, and discuss why all cases of ALS are not the same.

Adult onset Sandhoff disease: a rare mimicker of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

, 2020
Sandhoff disease is an under-recognized disease that may present as a lower motor neuron disorder in adulthood. We report the case of siblings presenting in their late 40s with a motor neuron disease phenotype and were misdiagnosed as amyotrophic lateral

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and cerebellum

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating, heterogeneous neurodegenerative neuromuscular disease that leads to a fatal outcome within 2–5 years, and yet, a precise nature of the association between its major phenotypes and the cerebellar role in ALS pathology remains unknown.
