A groundbreaking drug candidate found to protect nerve cells damaged by motor neuron disease (MND), could offer new hope to ...

Using stem cells from patients with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), Cedars-Sinai has created a lifelike model of the mysterious and fatal disease that could help identify a cause of the illness ...

Developing motor neurons from stem cells taken directly from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients offers new hope for better understanding and treatment of the fatal neurodegenerative disorder ...

Researchers have mapped out the proteins implicated in the early stages of motor neurone disease (MND). They have developed a longitudinal map of the proteins involved in MND across the trajectory of ...

QRL-101, an oral small molecule being developed by QurAlis, was safe and reduced nerve-cell overactivity in ALS patients in ...

Research at The University of Queensland could eventually help develop viable treatments - and ultimately a cure - for motor neuron disease (MND). Dr Adam Walker and co-authors Dr Rebecca San Gil, Dr ...

Pictured are nuclei of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons stained for contrast. The nucleus on the left has been treated with DMSO (control) and appears mostly blue. The ...
