  1. 21. Misfolded superoxide dismutase-1 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    Författare :Per Zetterström; Stefan L Marklund; Lawrence J. Hayward; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALS; SOD1; protein misfolding; SOD1 conformation; disulfide-reduced; transgenic mice; cerebrospinal fluid; protein-protein interaction; antibodies; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi; Clinical Chemistry; klinisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disease in which the motor neurons die in a progressive manner, leading to paralysis and muscle wasting. ALS is always fatal, usually through respiratory failure when the disease reaches muscles needed for breathing. Most cases are sporadic, but approximately 5–10% are familial. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Superoxide dismutase 1 and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    Författare :P. Andreas Jonsson; Stefan L. Marklund; David R. Borchelt; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; aggregates; ALS; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; cerebrospinal fluid; disulfide-reduced; inclusions; misfolded; protective factor; SOD1; transgenic; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Clinical Chemistry; klinisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons in the spinal cord, brain stem and motor cortex, leading to paralysis, respiratory failure and death. In about 5% of ALS cases, the disease is associated with mutations in the CuZn-superoxide dismutase (hSOD1) gene. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Misfolded superoxide dismutase-1 in sporadic and familial Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

    Författare :Karin Forsberg; Thomas Brännström; Irina Alafuzoff; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALS; SOD-1 motor neuron; protein misfolding; intranuclear; antibodies; CNS; brain; patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative syndrome of unknown etiology that most commonly affects people in middle and high age. The hallmark of ALS is a progressive and simultaneous loss of upper and lower motor neurons in the central nervous system that leads to a progressive muscle atrophy, paralysis and death usually by respiratory failure.

  5. 24. Of mice and men : SOD1 associated human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and transgenic mouse models

    Författare :Karin Sixtensdotter Graffmo; Thomas Brännström; Stefan Marklund; Elisabeth Englund; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; aggregates; ALS; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; inclusions; misfolded; vacuolisation; SOD1; transgenic; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS, is a progressive fatal neurodegenerative disorder affecting motor neurones in motor cortex, brain stem and spinal cord. This inevitably leads to paralysis, respiratory failure and death. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Mutant superoxide dismutase-1-caused pathogenesis in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    Författare :Daniel Bergemalm; Stefan Marklund; Thomas Brännström; Peter Andersen; Caterina Bendotti; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALS; SOD1; mitochondria; proteome; transgenic mice; inclusion; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi; biokemi; Biochemistry; neurologi; Neurology; Clinical Chemistry; klinisk kemi; patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disease that affects people in their late mid-life, with fatal outcome usually within a few years. The progressive degeneration of neurons responsible for muscle movement (motor neurons) throughout the central nervous system (CNS) leads to muscle wasting and paralysis, and eventually affects respiratory function.
