Very happy to see our collaborative project led by @Rebecca_SanGlia with @adamkeithwalker out today in @NatureComms, tracking proteomic changes in the cortex throughout disease in TDP-43 mice with comparison to human #ALS #FTD doi.org/10.1038/s41467…
Rebecca San Gil@Rebecca_SanGlia

TDP-43-mediated neurodegeneration is complex. We show that prior to disease onset in a mouse model of ALS/FTD, cortex neurons elicit a transient increase in protective chaperones that combat TDP-43 aggregation. Read it @NatureComms: rdcu.be/dy1PM

The @dehorterlab is excited to share a new study demonstrating a causal link between #immune activation, #alphasynuclein and #Parkinson onset. This work establishes the first immune-induced model to investigate the prodromal phase of idiopathic #Parkinson. @QldBrainInst @JCSMR

Today would have been Justin's 50th birthday, but as many of you know, Justin passed away last year after a long battle with MND This weekend the Yerbury lab are taking part in the walk to defeat MND to raise vital funds to support those living with MND ⬇️ walktodefeatmnd.org.au/fundraisers/Na…

SAVE THE DATE! We will be holding the 3rd Australian and New Zealand MND Research Symposium in Melbourne on Tuesday 27th and Wednesday 28th of August. An MND Connect session will also run on the Wednesday. Further information to come as we progress with the event.

This is sad news on the outcomes of the pivotal phase 3 trial of AMX0035, which did not meet any of the primary or secondary outcome measures for people living with ALS/MND. Next steps unclear, but there are many more treatments in testing which will hopefully be more positive.
Amylyx@AmylyxPharma

Today, we shared the topline results from our Phase 3 PHOENIX trial. Read more in our press release: bit.ly/3TbILMC On behalf of the entire Amylyx team, we are grateful to the ALS community and for the dedication of trial participants, investigators, and study site teams. With data collected from 664 participants in PHOENIX, we are certain there will be important learnings that will help inform future ALS research.

"We found several proteins that were driving disease forward and making it worse... we also found proteins that are increased early in disease and are protective." @QldBrainInst researcher @Rebecca_SanGlia explains how her protein map could offer therapeutic pathways for #MND.

Want to deliver gene therapies broadly, but activate them only in diseased neurons? TDP-REG "hacks" TDP cryptic mis-splicing to drive expression only WHEN and WHERE needed! Less toxicity, wider therapeutic window, new options for sporadic ALS therapies. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
