Axonal Dysfunction Precedes Motor Neuronal Death in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Wide-spread fasciculations are a characteristic feature in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), suggesting motor axonal hyperexcitability. Previous excitability studies have shown increased nodal persistent sodium conductances and decreased potassium currents in motor axons of ALS patients, both of...
