Human-on-a-chip technology could provide a more valuable clinical-based model for ALS.
Study reports protein aggregates within cells are cleared out by the endocytosis process. The findings could help with the development of new treatments for ALS.
Researchers shed new light on neuroplasticity by sparking learning in tadpole brains. They discovered the key to neuroplasticity is how the brain generates new proteins. Findings could help deepen understanding of sensory processing in ASD.
Researchers have generated motor neurons from people with familial ALS who carry FUS mutations.
Researchers have developed a new tool that may help explain how proteins are able to assemble into different states.
RNA binding protein appear to play an important role in ALS, a new study reports.
New findings could help develop treatments to slow the progression of ALS.
Researchers have identified a cellular mechanism which may be targeted to treat ALS.
Researchers discover link between an inability for neurons to repair DNA and neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS.
While evidence suggests pathological proteins linked to the onset and progression of neurodegenerative disorders are capable of spreading from cell-to-cell within the brains of affected individuals, new research shows no evidence to support concerns that these abnormal disease proteins are “infectious” or transmitted from animals to humans or from one person to another.
