A potential link between autoimmunity and neurodegeneration in immune-mediated neurological disease.

abstract：:The involvement of the immune system has been hypothesized in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this study a significantly higher level of TNF-alpha and its soluble receptors, TNF-R1 and TNF-R2, has been found in plasma of patients affected by the sporadic form of ALS compared to normal subje...
