dc.description.abstract | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by selective motor neuron death, and currently no effective treatment is available for ALS. In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of pyruvate, which acts as an anti-oxidant and as an energy source. We treated G93A SOD1 transgenic mice with pyruvate (from 70 days of age, i.p., at 1000 mg/kg/week), and found that it prolonged average lifespan by 12.3 days (10.5%), slowed disease progression, and improved motor performance, but did not delay disease onset. Pyruvate treatment was also associated with reduced nitrotyrosine immunoreactivity, gliosis, and increased Bcl-2 expression in the spinal cords of G93A SOD1 transgenic mice. These results suggest that pyruvate treatment may be a potential therapeutic strategy in ALS. | en |
