Highlights
- •This study investigates the expression of miRNA-206 in a sporadic model of ALS.
- •3.7 fold increase in miR-206 seen in gastrocnemius muscle of ALS-CSF injected rats.
- •Contrarily, ALS-CSF caused 2.05 fold down-regulation of miR-206 in biceps brachii.
- •De-regulation of miR-206 modulates the muscle responses in a differential manner.
- •Mir-206 could be explored for its potential role in disease diagnosis and prognosis.
