TL;DR: Since Metschnikoff's discovery, hundreds of scientists studying dozens of species have reported thousands of studies on these cells, perhaps the most widely recognized of which are those of the eminent English scientists.
Abstract: (First of Two Parts) THE part played by phagocytes in defense against invading pathogens has been recognized since 1883. In that year, Metschnikoff, a Russian zoologist, reported that foreign particles injected into metazoans (in Metschnikoff's experiments, starfish larvae) were taken up by a population of "wandering mesodermal cells" that resided in interstitial tissues.1 He postulated a crucial role in host defense for these wandering cells, which he named "phagocytes." Since Metschnikoff's discovery, hundreds of scientists studying dozens of species have reported thousands of studies on these cells, perhaps the most widely recognized of which are those of the eminent English . . .

TL;DR: Neuronal cytoplasmic protein aggregation and defective RNA metabolism thus appear to be common pathogenic mechanisms involved in ALS and possibly in other neurodegenerative disorders.
Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal degenerative motor neuron disorder Ten percent of cases are inherited; most involve unidentified genes We report here 13 mutations in the fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS) gene on chromosome 16 that were specific for familial ALS The FUS/TLS protein binds to RNA, functions in diverse processes, and is normally located predominantly in the nucleus In contrast, the mutant forms of FUS/TLS accumulated in the cytoplasm of neurons, a pathology that is similar to that of the gene TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP43), whose mutations also cause ALS Neuronal cytoplasmic protein aggregation and defective RNA metabolism thus appear to be common pathogenic mechanisms involved in ALS and possibly in other neurodegenerative disorders
