Approximately 5-10% of cases of ALS are familial ALS. More than 25 different genes could be linked to the causation of familial ALS. However, the remaining majority 90-95% of ALS cases are Sporadic ALS. There is no known cause for Sporadic ALS.

Cause

Approximately 5-10% of Familial ALS cases could be linked to different genes and their pathological pathways. More than 25 different genes mutations are attributed to Familial ALS. The most common ones include:
