Altered intracellular localization of SOD1 in leukocytes from patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Several lines of evidence support the hypothesis of a toxic role played by wild type SOD1 (WT-SOD1) in the pathogenesis of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS). In this study we investigated both distribution and expression profile of WT-SOD1 in

Misfolded SOD1 associated with motor neuron mitochondria alters mitochondrial shape and distribution prior to clinical onset. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Mutations in superoxide dismutase (SOD1) are causative for inherited amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. A proportion of SOD1 mutant protein is misfolded onto the cytoplasmic face of mitochondria in one or more spinal cord cell types.

m6A Methylation‐Induced Autophagy Impairment by TFEB Regulation in SOD1‐G93A ALS Cell Model
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We investigate the role of m6A RNA methylation in regulating transcription factor EB (TFEB) and its contribution to mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS cell models were used to analyse mitophagy markers and TFEB expression under METTL3 and TFEB modulation, using RT‐qPCR, Western blot ...

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Tofersen is the first effective and approved therapy for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)‐associated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS [SOD1‐ALS]). Following treatment with tofersen, neurofilament levels in patients' cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum seem to respond earlier than clinical parameters.
