Evidence for disrupted copper availability in human spinal cord supports CuII(atsm) as a treatment option for sporadic cases of ALS
Abstract The copper compound CuII(atsm) has progressed to phase 2/3 testing for treatment of the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). CuII(atsm) is neuroprotective in mutant SOD1 mouse models of ALS where its activity is ascribed in part to improving availability of essenti...
