Resumo:	Since amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) was discovered and described in 1869 as a neurodegenerative disease in which motorneuron death is induced, a wide range of biomarkers have been selected to identify therapeutic targets. ALS shares altered molecular pathways with other neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s diseases. However,the molecular targets that directly influence its aggressive nature remain unknown. What is the first link in the neurodegenerativechain of ALS that makes this disease so peculiar? In this review, we will discuss the progression of the disease from the viewpointof the potential biomarkers described to date in human and animal model samples. Finally, we will consider potential therapeuticstrategies for ALS treatment and future, innovative perspectives.
