Knockout of reactive astrocyte activating factors slows disease progression in an ALS mouse model

Astrocyte activation may contribute to neurodegenerative disease. Here the authors show that the combined knockout of three factors known to promote astrogliosis, IL-1α, TNFα and C1qa, leads to improved survival in the SOD1 G93A mouse model of ALS.
