Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Disease Bioinformatics

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also referred to as Lou Gehrig's Disease is a neurological disease that affects nerve cells in the spinal cord and brain. In Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the motor neurons die and the ability of the brain to control muscle movement is lost. This leads to muscle weakness and eventually death. The leading cause of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a hereditary mutation on chromosome 21. There is no known cure for Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; however, the drug Riluzole has been proven to delay the onset of tracheostomy and increase survival by approximately 3-5 months.

NB100-565
Knockout Validated: FUS Antibody [NB100-565] - Western blot shows lysates of HEK293 human embryonic kidney parental cell line and FUS knockout (KO) HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1:1000 of Rabbit Anti-Human FUS Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # NB100-565) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog #HAF008). Specific band was detected for FUS at approximately 75 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HEK293 celll line, but is not detectable in the knockout HEK293 cell line. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions.Western Blot: FUS Antibody [NB100-565] - FUS activates GSK-3beta in transfected cells and transgenic mice A. Cells were transfected with either control vector (CTRL), HA-FUS, HA-FUSR521C or HA FUSR518K and the samples probed on immunoblots for GSK-3beta phosphorylated on serine 9 (GSK-3beta-S9), total GSK-3beta, FUS (using FUS antibody) and tubulin as a loading control. Phosphorylation of GSK-3beta serine 9 is the principal mechanism for regulating its activity; serine 9 phosphorylation inhibits GSK-3beta activity. Bar chart shows relative levels of GSK-3beta serine 9 phosphorylation following quantification of signals from immunoblots and normalization to total GSK-3beta signals. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test. N = 4, error bars are s.e.m.; *P < 0.05.
