Scientists at the University of Sydney have uncovered a malfunctioning version of the SOD1 protein that clumps inside brain ...

Groundbreaking research by Sydney University found a new brain protein involved in Parkinson’s disease and a way to modify it ...

Groundbreaking research by the University of Sydney has identified a new brain protein involved in the development of ...

In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned adults with SOD1 ALS in a 2:1 ratio to receive eight doses of tofersen (100 mg) or placebo over a period of 24 weeks. The primary end point was the ...

Could similar changes in SOD1 underlie both familial and sporadic ALS? Here, Bosco et al. find that wild-type SOD1 from sporadic ALS tissues shows conformational changes similar to those seen in ...

The decision on the SOD1 ALS program does not impact Voyager’s other gene therapy programs; the Company continues to expect IND filings in 2025 from Neurocrine Biosciences for the program in ...

SOD1-G85 seems to act as a sort of “acceptor” for SOD1-propagated misfolding in a way that the wild-type protein does not. Cashman speculated that in an aging person, wild-type SOD1 might become more ...

The disease, which is caused by mutations in the SOD1 gene, accounts for approximately 10% to 20% of genetic ALS cases and 1% to 2% of sporadic ALS cases, according to the ALS Association. 7.
