Metabolic Changes in an Animal Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Evaluated by [18F]-FDG Positron Emission Tomography

Abstract: Background: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive loss of motor function and eventual death. Genetic background account for 10% of all ALS cases and several genes are associated with the onset and progression of disease in humans. Studies in humans have observed differences in glucose uptake in the brain using [ 18 F]-fluorodeoxyglucose ([ 18 F]-FDG), however, no studies in animal models of ALS have been performed on the matter. The goal of this stud… Show more
