Publications

Project MinE* is a patient-driven groundbreaking genetic ALS research. The project is a worldwide collaboration between ALS centres and foundations.

All Project MinE data used in the listed publications were made accessible and available through funding by the Dutch ALS Foundation and co-funding by the PPP Allowance made available by Health~Holland, Top Sector Life Sciences & Health, to stimulate public-private partnerships.

Common and rare variant association analyses in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis identify 15 risk loci with distinct genetic architectures and neuron-specific biology

Association of NIPA1 repeat expansions with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in a large international cohort

Tazelaar GHP, et al., Neurobiology of Aging, 2018

NIPA1 (nonimprinted in Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome 1) mutations are known to cause hereditary spastic paraplegia type 6, a neurodegenerative disease that phenotypically overlaps to some extent […]

CHCHD10 variants in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Where is the evidence?

Project MinE ALS Sequencing Consortium, Annals of Neurology, 2018
