Abstract excerpt
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is primarily a motor neuron disorder. Intriguingly, early muscle denervation preceding motor neuron loss is observed in mouse models of ALS. Enhanced muscle vulnerability to denervation process has been suggested by accelerated muscle deterioration following peripheral nerve injury in an ALS mouse model. Here we provide evidence of biochemical changes in the hindlimb muscle of...
