Researchers implicate a variant in the UBQLN4 gene as a possible cause of ALS. The variant disrupts cellular processes that drive motor neuron development.
Researchers have identified a compound that can stabilize a protein implicated in ALS and SMN.
New studies find a drug designed to combat the gene that causes SCA2 could also be beneficial in the fight against ALS.
fNIRS technology is allowing ALS patients who are 'locked in' to communicate, a new study reports.
New advances in brain computer interface technology allows three people with movement impairments to control a cursor by imagining their hand movements.
Researchers have developed a BCI that can decipher and communicate the thoughts of those with locked in syndrome.
Researchers report transgenic mice engineered to carry genes associated with ALS showed improved neuromuscualr function and lived longer after being exposed to butyrate.
A new study reports astrocytes may be a driving force behind a number of neurodegenerative diseases.
Researchers have developed a new tool that may help explain how proteins are able to assemble into different states.
Activating Nrf2 helps with the removal of LRRK2 and alpha synuclein, researchers report.
New research could help scientist better understand the role of astrocytes in neurodegenerative diseases.
Researchers have identified a naturally occurring molecule that has the potential for preserving sites of communication between nerves and muscles in ALS.
