Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a neurodegenerative disorder poised for successful therapeutic translation

Richard J. Mead et al.

Summary: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disease with degeneration of motor neurons. Despite the challenges, ALS has seen progress in the development of disease-modifying therapies. Significant advancements have been made in ALS research and novel therapeutic approaches are being applied to address unmet medical needs. This review discusses how advanced knowledge and new approaches can lead to effective translation of therapies for ALS and potentially impact drug discovery for neurodegenerative disorders.

Tofersen: First Approval

Hannah A. Blair

Summary: Tofersen (Qalsody(TM)) is an antisense oligonucleotide developed by Biogen to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). It was approved in the USA on April 25, 2023, for the treatment of ALS in adults with a mutation in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene. This article summarizes the developmental milestones of tofersen leading to its first approval for ALS.

Pathogenicity classification of SOD1 variants of uncertain significance by in vitro aggregation propensity

Lu-Xi Chen et al.

Summary: Deposition of insoluble SOD1 aggregates in motor neurons is the hallmark of SOD1-associated ALS. Aggregation propensity in cell lines can be a reliable indicator for the pathogenicity classification of SOD1 variants.

Trial of Antisense Oligonucleotide Tofersen for SOD1 ALS

Timothy M. Miller et al.

Summary: This study examined the use of tofersen in patients with SOD1 ALS and found that it can reduce protein concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, but does not improve clinical outcomes and is associated with adverse events. Further investigation is needed to evaluate the effects of early initiation of tofersen.

SOD1, more than just an antioxidant

Elis Cristina Araujo Eleutherio et al.

Summary: During cellular respiration, radicals like superoxide can cause cell damage, but cells use the enzyme Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase (SOD1) to convert superoxide into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. In addition to its primary function, SOD1 also plays other roles, such as activating gene transcription or functioning as an RNA binding protein.
