Abstract excerpt
A familial form of the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is caused by dominant mutations in the cytosolic Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1). There has been evidence for secretion of SOD1, by an unknown mechanism. In this work stable mouse motor neuron-like NSC-34 cells overexpressing human SOD1 wild-type hSOD1(wt) (NSC-34/hSOD1(wt)) and mutant hSOD1(G93A) (NSC-34/hSOD1(G93A)) have...
