Despite the great strides that have been made in research for Lou Gehrig’s Disease in the twentieth century, effective treatments are sorely lacking. This is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder that progresses rapidly to paralysis and death. What will we do to address treatment options? Waging a War against Motor Neuron Disease describes the development of a cell model and biochemical assays that may lead to the discovery of mechanisms of ALS. This original work provides groundbreaking evidence that proteomics analysis in spinal cord extracts of ALS mice may yield new protein targets and suggests that therapeutic approaches can be derived from developments in the laboratory. This book describes translational research that is leading to promising findings at the J Thomas May Center for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The May Center is focused on moving new treatments rapidly from the laboratory to the clinic.
