Journal ArticleDOI
A Controlled Trial of Riluzole in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
TL;DR: The antiglutamate agent riluzole appears to slow the progression of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and it may improve survival in patients with disease of bulbar onset, according to a prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 155 outpatients with Amyotrophicateral sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
TARDBP mutations in individuals with sporadic and familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

TL;DR: Findings further corroborate that TDP-43 is involved in ALS pathogenesis and reports eight missense mutations in nine individuals—six from individuals with sporadic ALS and three from those with familial ALS (FALS)—and a concurring increase of a smaller T DP-43 product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose-ranging study of riluzole in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
TL;DR: A double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre study to confirm that riluzole is well tolerated and lengthens survival of patients with ALS and suggests that the 100 mg dose of rILuzole has the best benefit-to-risk ratio.

TL;DR: It is shown that mutations within the profilin 1 (PFN1) gene can cause FALS, and cytoskeletal pathway alterations contribute to ALS pathogenesis.

TL;DR: Evidence of ALS being a complex genetic trait with a polygenic architecture is established and the SNP-based heritability is estimated at 8.5%, with a distinct and important role for low-frequency variants (frequency 1–10%).
