Researchers perform thousands of mutations to understand amyotrophic lateral sclerosis — ScienceDaily

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating and incurable nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing loss of muscle control and normally death within a few years of diagnosis. In ALS, like in other neurodegenerative diseases, specific protein aggregates have long been recogniSed as the pathological hallmarks, but it is not clear whether they…

Researchers from CRG and IBEC in Barcelona use a technique called high-throughput mutagenesis to study Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), with unexpected results.

Results showed that aggregation of TDP-43 is not harmful but actually protects cells,…

Theory of Mind (hereinafter referred to as ToM) is the ability to explain and predict other people’s behavior by attributing independent mental states to them. It allows us to recognize that mental states such as beliefs, intentions, and desires play a key role in driving and monitoring human behavior. Impairment in ToM ability can be highly disabling. ToM had been extensively studied in neuropsychiatric conditions such as autism and certain manifestations of schizophrenia [1], but only recently researchers and clinicians have started to investigate ToM in neurodegenerative conditions, such as the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bv-FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or Lou Gehrig’s disease is a chronic inflammation of nervous tissue, leading to severe neurological deficits, such as weaknes in muscles, up to the respiratory and swallowing miuscles and ends in death within some years.

Now it seems that compounds belonging to the class of signaling lipids, such as Cannabinoids and endogenous lipids such as palmitoylethanolamide,…

CILLE N:Diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNYYljKOfdA Cille Norman received devastating news when diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS is a debilitating type of motor neuron disease that is characterized by progressive degeneration of nerve cells in the spinal cord and brain affecting more than 30,000 people in the United States.

O Canada! - gender has been kicked out of our anthem, and now God Himself could be next!

As I’ve mentioned in several previous postings, our national anthem isn’t just a song for the start of a hockey game or a morning ritual in an elementary school classroom.  It’s the symbolic glue that unites us from coast to coast with a common story and belief about our shared life together.  It unites strangers in a way nothing else can.  And there are forces at work today that want to change…
