Six SQSTM1 mutations in a Chinese amyotrophic lateral sclerosis cohort

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this study was to identify SQSTM1 gene mutations, estimate survival based on the progression rate of the revised amyotrophic lateral sclerosis functional rating scale (ALSFRS-R) score (ΔFS), and characterize the relationships between SQSTM1 mutations and clinical phenotypes in Chinese ALS patients. We sequenced the SQSTM1 gene in 35 familial ALS patients, 436 sporadic ALS patients, and 384 healthy...
