Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that leads to motoneurons degeneration. To date, there is no effective treatment against this disease, so several compounds have been tested aimed to improve the course of ALS, acting on its pathogenic mechanisms. In the last years, a great interest has been dedicated to studying the effects of curcumin, a natural compound that acts modulating mitochondrial functions and oxidative stress.

Abstract

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease that leads to motoneurons degeneration. To date, there is no effective treatment against this disease, so several compounds have been tested aimed to improve the course of ALS, acting on its pathogenic mechanisms. In the last years, a great interest has been dedicated to studying the effects of curcumin, a natural compound that acts modulating mitochondrial functions and oxidative stress.
