Another angiogenic gene linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Trends in molecular medicine - 1 Aug 2006

Lambrechts Diether, Lafuste Peggy, Carmeliet Peter, Conway Edward M

Abstract excerpt

A new study by Greenway and colleagues links mutations in the angiogenin gene to patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)--a progressive and fatal motoneuron disease. This is an unexpected finding because angiogenin was originally identified as a molecule involved in the formation of blood vessels (angiogenesis). Angiogenin bears striking similarity to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is...
