Abstract excerpt
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Recently, genetic variants in GLT8D1 and ARPP21 were associated with ALS in a cohort of European descent. A synergistic relationship was proposed between ALS associated variants in GLT8D1 and ARPP21. We aimed to determine the prevalence of genetic variation in GLT8D1 and ARPP21 in an...
