Characterizing spatial tuning functions of neurons in the auditory cortex of young and aged monkeys: a new perspective on old data.

abstract：:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a multisystemic neurodegenerative disorder. Given that peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) serve as a "window to the central nervous system" we aimed to answer whether endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in ALS-PBMCs is related to disease aggressiveness. We studied ER stress...
