Antisense oligonucleotides extend survival and reverse decrement in muscle response in ALS models. 2018 (Links to an external site)
Mutations in superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) are responsible for 20% of familial ALS. Given the gain of toxic function in this dominantly inherited disease, lowering SOD1 mRNA and protein is predicted to provide therapeutic benefit. We have developed next-generation SOD1 ASOs that more potently reduce SOD1 mRNA and protein and extend survival in SOD1G93A mice. […]
