Behavioral, Hormonal, Inflammatory, and Metabolic Effects Associated with FGF21-Pathway Activation in an ALS Mouse Model
In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), motor neuron degeneration occurs simultaneously with systemic metabolic dysfunction and neuro-inflammation. The fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) plays an important ro...

Open AccessThe specific metabolome profiling of patients infected by SARS-COV-2 supports the key role of tryptophan-nicotinamide pathway and cytosine metabolism
The biological mechanisms involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection are only partially understood. Thus we explored the plasma metabolome of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 to search for diagnostic and/or prognostic ...

Causative Genes in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Protein Degradation Pathways: a Link to Neurodegeneration
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disease caused by the degeneration of motor neurons (MNs) leading to progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Several molecular pathways have been implicated, such as g...

Open AccessLipidomics Reveals Cerebrospinal-Fluid Signatures of ALS
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the commonest adult-onset motor neuron disorder, is characterized by a survival span of only 2–5 years after onset. Relevant biomarkers or specific metabolic signatures wou...

A decrease in blood cholesterol after gastrostomy could impact survival in ALS
Although the global benefits of gastrostomy have been proven in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the impact on biological parameters has not been explored yet. The aim of this preliminary work was to evalu...

Advances in Cellular Models to Explore the Pathophysiology of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the most common adult-onset motor neuron disorder, is fatal for most patients less than 3 years from when the first symptoms appear. The aetiologies for sporadic and most f...

Xq27 FRAXA Locus is a Strong Candidate for Dyslexia: Evidence from a Genome-Wide Scan in French Families
Dyslexia is a frequent neurodevelopmental learning disorder. To date, nine susceptibility loci have been identified, one of them being DYX9, located in Xq27. We performed the first French SNP linkage study fol...
