Analyses revealed altered secretions of inflammatory chemokines and cytokines as those found in ALS patients, such as IP-10, TNFα (Sjögren et al., 2004), TGFβ, CCL-2 (also called MCP-1) (Galimberti et al., 2015), RANTES (Galimberti et al., 2008), and IL-8 (Galimberti et al., 2006). This evidence concerns the gene TNF and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
