The expression of vimentin was significantly increased in ALS cases in the ventral horns (Figure 2A–D; ALS P = 0.0009; SDD P = 0.0251; MDD P = 0.0042) and lateral columns (Figure 2E–H; ALS P = 0.0003; SDD P = 0.0144; MDD P = 0.0177) compared to controls. Here, VIM is linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
