BACKGROUND Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an incurable neurodegenerative disease that dramatically affects patients' quality of life (QoL) and dignity of life (DoL). We aimed to study the impact of ALS on QoL and DoL and how these evolve throughout the duration of the disease. METHODS First, we performed an observational, descriptive study of 43 patients with ALS recruited from the AL...
OBJECTIVE To determine the extent of an inherited contribution to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mortality. METHODS Death certificates (DCs) from 1904 to 2009 were analyzed from patients with at least 3 generations recorded in the Utah Population Database, a genealogic and medical database of more than 2 million Utah residents. Among probands whose DCs listed ALS, the relative risk (RR) ...

IMPORTANCE Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease in which microglia play a significant and active role. Recently, a rare missense variant (p.R47H) in the microglial activating gene TREM2 was found to increase the risk of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer disease. Whether the p.R47H variant is a risk factor for ALS is not known. OBJECTIV...
BACKGROUND The homogeneous genotype and stereotyped phenotype of a unique familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (patients homozygous for aspartate-to-alanine mutations in codon 90 (homD90A) superoxide dismutase 1) provides an ideal model for studying genotype/phenotype interactions and pathological features compared with heterogeneous apparently sporadic ALS. The authors aimed to...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset disease characterized by the selective degeneration of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord progressively leading to paralysis and death. Current diagnosis of ALS is based on clinical assessment of related symptoms. The clinical manifestations observed in ALS appear relatively late in the disease course after degeneration of a signific...
PURPOSE The Kii Peninsula of Japan, together with Guam and West New Guines, has one of the highest incidences of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Kii ALS) in the world. There is a controversy whether the etiology is the same or not between sporadic ALS and Kii ALS. Skin studies from patients with sporadic ALS have shown unique pathological and biochemical abnormalities. However, there has been no...
The clinical approach to patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has been largely modified by the identification of novel genes, the detection of gene mutations in apparently sporadic patients, and the discovery of the strict genetic and clinical relation between ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). As a consequence, clinicians are increasingly facing the dilemma on how to handle ge...
We investigated the role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by studying the long-term consequences of ALS immunoglobulin (Ig) application on the levator auris muscle of the mouse. We applied Ig from seven ALS patients, four disease controls, and a pool of normal Ig (6 mg of Ig in 2 weeks) by subcutaneous injection; removed the muscles 4 to 12 weeks a...
During the transition from pregnancy to lactation, dairy cows experience a 70% reduction in plasma IGF-I. This reduction has been attributed to decreased hepatic IGF-I production. IGF-I circulates predominantly in multi-protein complexes consisting of one molecule each of IGF-I, IGF binding protein-3 and the acid labile subunit (ALS). Recent studies in the mouse have shown that absence of ALS r...
