The 43-kD transactive response (TAR)-DNA-binding protein (TARDBP) mutations have been demonstrated to be causative of sporadic and familial forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. More recently, these mutations have been reported in cases of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of TARDBP genetic variations in a large sample of consecutive patients with FTLD. A...
