Using a tiny dose of the leukemia drug nilotinib, researchers halt the accumulation of toxic proteins linked to Parkinson's diseases in the brains of mice.
A new study provides insights into networks of interneurons that carry out essential motor and sensory duties.
Researchers use techniques which illuminates subtle changes in proteins and uncover new insights into the underlying causes of ALS.
Researchers report a collapse of the mitochondria-associated membrane is a common halmark in two genetic forms of ALS.
Researchers have identified a compound that can stabilize a protein implicated in ALS and SMN.
Study implicates abnormalities in SOD1 with Parkinson's disease and ALS.
Researchers have developed a brain machine interface which can control a lower limb exoskeleton.
Treatment with copper-ATSM helped mouse models retain behavioral performance and prevented extensive motor neuron degeneration and microglial activation associated with ALS.
Research using C. elegans finds maple syrup may protect neurons and prevent the development of ALS.
Researchers have created a new musical instrument that can be controlled by thought alone. The instrument, dubbed the Encephalophone, may help as a rehabilitation tool for those with motor disabilities, the Frontiers in Human Neuroscience study reports.
Using CRISPR, researchers have identified a new set of genes that may be implicated in both ALS and frontotemporal dementia.
A new mouse model has been developed that captures the pathology of sporadic neurodegenerative diseases.
