CUI: C0002736
Disease: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
0.500 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE These results demonstrate that peripherin overexpression can cause defective transport of type IV NF proteins, a phenomenon that may account for the progressive formation of ALS-like spheroids in axons. 16787413 2006

Disease: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
0.500 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Morphologically, this is evident as Bunina bodies, ubiquitin-immunoreactive fibrils or aggregates, neurofilamentous aggregates, mutant copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) aggregates in familial ALS variants harboring mutations in SOD1, peripherin-immunoreactive aggregates within spinal motor neurons and as neuroaxonal spheroids, and in an increasingly greater population of patients with ALS with cognitive impairment, both intra- and extraneuronal tau aggregates. 16106213 2005
