Disease-related changes in the cerebrospinal fluid metabolome in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis detected by GC/TOFMS. [PDF]
The changes in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) metabolome associated with the fatal neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are poorly understood and earlier smaller studies have shown conflicting results.

Cognition and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is classically described as a pure motor disease; however, there is growing evidence of a range of cognitive impairment. Cognitive abnormalities include deficiencies in frontal executive skills, varying from mild deficits to meeting criteria for diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Difficulties in diagnosing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in a HIV-Positive Patient
We described a case of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) with comorbid HIV infection. The diagnosis was confirmed by genetic tests. The difficulty of the differential diagnosis between amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and HIV-associated ALS syndrome is ...

Saccadic intrusions in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
The attempt to steadily fixate at a small visual object is continuously interrupted by a variety of fixational eye movements comprising, among others, a continuum of saccadic intrusions (SI) which ranges in size from microsaccades with amplitudes ≤0.25° to larger refixation saccades of up to about 2°.

Clinical Spectrum of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is primarily characterized by progressive loss of motor neurons, although there is marked phenotypic heterogeneity between cases. Typical, or "classical," ALS is associated with simultaneous upper motor neuron (UMN) and lower motor neuron (LMN) involvement at disease onset, whereas atypical forms, such as primary ...

Induced pluripotent stem cell line derived from a sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patient
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained from a 60-year-old female diagnosed with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (sALS).

Background: TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) aggregation in neuronal cells is recognized as a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Although the literature strongly supports the pathogenetic role of TDP-43 in ALS pathogenesis, the role of ...
