## Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a lateβonset progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons. About 2% of patients with the disease are associated with mutations in the gene encoding Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1). The purpose of this study is to assess the effec
## Abstract The kinesin superfamily motor protein Kif1B is expressed in two isoforms, Kif1BΞ± and Kif1BΞ², with distinct cargoβbinding domains. We examined the mRNA distribution of the two isoforms in adjacent sections of brain and spinal cord of adult mice using in situ hybridization analysis. Kif1B
## Abstract ## Background and Objective Familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of motor neurons and death. Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress play an important role in motor neuron loss in ALS. Light therapy (LT) h
