The body's cells respond to stress—toxins, mutations, starvation or other assaults—by pausing normal functions to focus on ...

Scientists have developed a new method that can grow motor neurons from skin cells, which may serve as a platform for ALS ...

Researchers have developed a laboratory model that mimics the pathological aggregation of TDP-43, a key protein in ALS and ...

Researchers have revealed a new scientific clue that could unlock the key cellular pathway leading to devastating neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ...

Neuronal cells clogged with a mutant protein associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) die within hours after clumps first form, researchers report. 1 The finding directly links aggregation ...

Much of cell behavior is governed by the actions of biomolecular condensates: building block molecules that glom together and scatter apart as needed. Biomolecular condensates constantly shift their ...

Accumulation of a protein called TDP-43 is a key feature of ALS and frontotemporal dementia. In a study published in Neuron, ...

The body's cells respond to stress-toxins, mutations, starvation or other assaults-by pausing normal functions to focus on conserving energy, repairing damaged components and boosting defenses.

The wheelchair is going to be a huge thing for me,' said Mike Hoover, who is getting a wheelchair ramp installed at his home.
