Exploring transcriptomic and genomic latent variable correction approaches in differential expression analysis.

This paper evaluates combining expression-based surrogate variables and genotype-based principal components in differential expression analysis, finding the combined approach improves replicability and biological recall in ALS datasets.

Cell environment shapes TDP-43 function: implications in neuronal and muscle disease

The paper compares TDP-43's transcriptional and splicing effects in muscle and neuronal cells, showing tissue-specific roles in disease.

Postmortem Cortex Samples Identify Distinct Molecular Subtypes of ALS: Retrotransposon Activation, Oxidative Stress, and Activated Glia

The paper uses unsupervised machine learning to identify three molecular subtypes in ALS cortex samples, associated with oxidative stress, retrotransposon activation, and glial activation.

The molecular pathogenesis of superoxide dismutase 1-linked ALS is promoted by low oxygen tension

This study shows that low oxygen tension promotes SOD1 misfolding and aggregation in ALS-related cells, linking oxygen levels to disease pathogenesis.
