DNA damage accumulates and responses are engaged in human ALS brain and spinal motor neurons and DNA repair is activatable in iPSC-derived motor neurons with SOD1 mutations

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
DNA damage is implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, relationships between DNA damage accumulation, DNA damage response (DDR), and upper and lower motor neuron vulnerability in human ALS are unclear; furthermore ...

Aberrant axon initial segment plasticity and intrinsic excitability of ALS hiPSC motor neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Dysregulated neuronal excitability is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We sought to investigate how functional changes to the axon initial segment (AIS), the site of action potential generation, could impact neuronal ...

Calcitonin gene-related peptide expression levels predict motor neuron vulnerability in the superoxide dismutase 1-G93A mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) some motor neurons degenerate while others survive. The molecular mechanisms underlying this selective vulnerability and resistance, respectively, are poorly understood.

Selective vulnerability of spinal and cortical motor neuron subpopulations in delta7 SMA mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Loss of the survival motor neuron gene (SMN1) is responsible for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), the most common inherited cause of infant mortality. Even though the SMA phenotype is traditionally considered as related to spinal motor neuron loss, it ...

EPSPs in rat neocortical neurons in vitro. I. Electrophysiological evidence for two distinct EPSPs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
1. To investigate excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs), intracellular recordings were performed in layer II/III neurons of the rat medial frontal cortex.

Correlation with basic differentiation processes of neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The development of the spinal cord involves the proliferation of neurons, their migration to well-defined areas, fiber outgrowth and synapse formation. The present study was designed to correlate the spatiotemporal pattern of expression of synaptophysin,

Motor Neurone Disease [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 1962
THE story of motor neurone disease goes back more than a hundred years, to the latter half of the igth century, and the days of the great clinical neurologists of France. Of the many famous names linked to this story three are pre-eminent: Charcot-physician and neuropathologist, and great teacher, who became even more renowned for his studies of ...

Co-occurrence of TDP-43 mislocalization with reduced activity of an RNA editing enzyme, ADAR2, in aged mouse motor neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
TDP-43 pathology in spinal motor neurons is a neuropathological hallmark of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and has recently been shown to be closely associated with the downregulation of an RNA editing enzyme called adenosine deaminase ...

Nitric oxide synthase and the contribution of nitric oxide to vertebrate motor control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
I have explored the role of nitric oxide (NO) and the distribution of its synthetic enzyme in neurons, nNOS, in vertebrate motor control. The CNS of Xenopus laevis tadpoles was used primarily in this investigation as a developmental model of neural ...
