Abstract excerpt

Granulin protein plays an important role in neurite outgrowth and neuronal survival. Recently, it was shown that mutations in granulin (GRN) gene cause tau-negative frontotemporal dementia supporting the idea that granulin is involved in neurodegeneration. Here we have investigated whether geneti...
