EBioMedicine . 2023 Mar; 90:104521. PMID: 36917918
Background: The emergence of potentially effective new therapies for genetic forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) necessitates the identification of biomarkers to facilitate early treatment, prior to the onset of...

Brain . 2023 Mar; 146(9):3770-3782. PMID: 36883643
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a fatal and incurable neurodegenerative disease that mainly affects the neurons of the motor system. Despite the increasing understanding of its genetic components, their biological meanings...

Xia K, Witzel S, Witzel C, Klose V, Fan D, Ludolph A, et al.
Eur J Neurol . 2022 Sep; 30(1):87-95. PMID: 36169607
Background And Purpose: Growing evidence shows that ALS patients feature a disturbed energy metabolism. However, these features have rarely been investigated in the presymptomatic stage. Methods: A total of 60...

Witzel S, Mayer K, Oeckl P
Curr Opin Neurol . 2022 Aug; 35(5):699-704. PMID: 35942674
Purpose Of Review: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an incurable, devastating neurodegenerative disease. Still, the diagnosis is mainly based on clinical symptoms, and the treatment options are strongly limited. However,...

Neurobiol Aging . 2022 Aug; 119:117-126. PMID: 35933239
Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) show substantial differences in disease progression and survival. However, the genetic contribution to the extremes of this spectrum remains poorly characterized. We unbiasedly selected...
