Abstract excerpt
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) recognizes a strong genetic background, with 30-50% of cases with a positive family history. Despite several efforts to identify monogenic causes of the disease, no clear-cut genetic risk factors for sporadic FTLD are yet known. Recently, increasing eviden...
