Topics include: Genotype-phenotype correlations of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Association between novel TARDBP mutations and Chinese patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; From animal models to human disease: a genetic approach for personalized medicine in ALS; Screening of the transcriptional regulatory regions of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Genotype-phenotype relationship in hereditary amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Genetic counseling for FTD/ALS caused by the C9ORF72 hexanucleotide expansion; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Human CCS gene: genomic organization and exclusion as a candidate for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); Stem cell therapy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Genome-wide association reveals three SNPs associated with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis through a two-locus analysis; Astroglia acquires a toxic neuroinflammatory role in response to the cerebrospinal fluid from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients; Gene ontology analysis of pairwise genetic associations in two genome-wide studies of sporadic ALS; The interplay between metabolic homeostasis and neurodegeneration: insights into the neurometabolic nature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; FUS/TLS deficiency causes behavioral and pathological abnormalities distinct from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Tdp-43 cryptic exons are highly variable between cell types; A data-driven approach links microglia to pathology and prognosis in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Low autophagy capacity implicated in motor system vulnerability to mutant superoxide dismutase; Neural stem cells: ready for therapeutic applications?; TDP-43 protein variants as biomarkers in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Heterogeneity of cerebral TDP-43 pathology in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Evidence for clinico-pathologic subtypes; Complement activation at the motor end-plates in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Pathogenesis of FUS-associated ALS and FTD: insights from rodent models; Directly converted patient-specific induced neurons mirror the neuropathology of FUS with disrupted nuclear localization in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; SIRT1 overexpression ameliorates a mouse model of SOD1-linked amyotrophic lateral sclerosis via HSF1/HSP70i chaperone system; Weighted gene co-expression network analysis of the peripheral blood from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patients; Identification of plasma microRNAs as a biomarker of sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
