Meta-Analysis of ALS Post-Mortem Cerebral Cortex Transcriptome Studies Identifies Robust Shifts in Gene Expression Despite Significant Between-Study Heterogeneity

Background: ALS is characterized by motor neuron failure with potential neurocognitive comorbidity. Cortical neurons, and their support cells, exhibit pathologic features, some of which have been identified in post-mortem transcriptome studies of the cortex from ALS patients and...
