          Large-Scale Generation of Muscle-Controlling Nerve Cells From ALS Patients

          A person's sex is one of the main drivers of altered gene expression in motor neurons, regardless of whether they were derived from patients diagnosed with ALS. Male ALS stem cells generated significantly more motor neurons than the control group, however, this was not seen in female samples.
