Abstract

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to neuronal death in the brain and spinal cord. Over the last decades, evidence has emerged regarding the functional diversity of astrocytes, microglia, and T cells in the central nervous system (CNS), and the role of neuroinflammation in ALS. In this review, we summarize current knowledge regarding neuroinflammation in ALS, both at the level of specific molecular pathways and potential cellular pathways as well as outline questions about the immune mechanisms involved in ALS pathogenesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
