Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Familial
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We tested the efficacy of CuATSM on 10 SOD1-fALS mutants and found that while protection was observed in cells expressing pathogenic wild-type-like mutants, cells expressing a truncation mutant or metal binding region mutants were not. 30462490 2019
