Gut bacteria may be playing a role in motor neurone disease, according to early studies in animals and people. Experiments show some species of bacteria - and the chemicals they make - change the ...

Together, Dr. Pappas explained, these findings suggest torsinA controls where NPCs are ultimately placed during a critical period early in neuron development—a step that appears key to healthy ...
