A small-molecule inhibitor of SOD1-Derlin-1 interaction ameliorates pathology in an ALS mouse model
4 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder. Despite its severity, there are no effective treatments because of the complexity of its pathogenesis. As one of the underlying mechanisms of Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene mutation-induced ALS, SOD1 mutants (SOD1mut) commonly interact with an endoplasmic reticulum-resident membrane protein Derlin-1, triggering...
