I know this is not related to ALS but Alzheimers is a Neurological disease but...
it is related to proteins and amyloids.
But again... HOPEFULLY this might create some research concerning ALS.
Transcranial electromagnetic treatment breaks down clumps of toxic proteins
A head device that zaps the brain with electromagnetic waves appears to have
reversed the effects of Alzheimer's in a trial.
Eight patients with mild or moderate forms of the brain-destroying disorder took
part in experimental transcranial electromagnetic treatment (TEMT).
It involved them wearing a skullcap of magnets which sent electric pulses to break
down build-ups of proteins known to stop nerve cells working properly.
TEMT works by breaking up toxic clumps of proteins called amyloid-beta and tau,
the formation of which is thought to be the cause of Alzheimer's.
Seven of the patients showed a 'highly significant improvement' in tests of their
memory, language and function.
Some Neurologists have said there is a possibility of a relationship with the proteins
and amyloids of Alzheimers and ALS.
FTD is part of ALS.
Maybe one of the members who are more knowledgeable concerning proteins and
amyloids than I can comment.
