Oxaloacetate treatment preserves motor function in SOD1G93A mice and normalizes select neuroinflammation-related parameters in the spinal cord

Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains a devastating motor neuron disease with limited treatment options. Oxaloacetate treatment has a neuroprotective effect in rodent models of seizure and neurodegeneration. Therefore, we treated the ALS model superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) G93A mice w...
