Loss of CREST leads to neuroinflammatory responses and ALS-like motor defects in mice
2018-03-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a late onset neurodegenerative disease with fast progression. Mutations of the CREST gene (also known as SS18L1 ) are identified in sporadic ALS patients. Whether CREST mutations may lead to ALS remained largely unclear. In this study, we showed that the ALS-related CREST-Q388X mutation exhibited loss-of-function effects. Importantly, we found that micro...
