There are a small number of PALS who have found success with the Wet Cell Battery and you can get more information from the foundation. One of these PALS had a dramatic recovery and I think he has a web site. His name is David Atkinson. I don't have better news. I found the apoptosis paper to be particularly interesting.
Cell suicide can eliminate cells that are no longer needed or that have become damaged or stressed.
Presumably, testosterone deprivation tells prostate cells that they are no longer needed, causing them to commit suicide. We do not understand a great deal about what makes one cell look and respond like a prostate cell and another look and respond like a motorneuron. This is hardly a far-reaching scenario. Furthermore, it would be prudent to look to Par-4 and its regulation as candidate players in the broader ALS population, as some researchers are doing. The prostate apoptosis response-4 protein participates in motor neuron degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
