Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the CuZn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) and TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) genes are linked to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ALS1 and ALS10, respectively. In addition, TDP-43 is a major component protein of the ubiquitinated aggregates observed in sporadic ALS (SALS) patients. However, it remains unclear whether these ALS groups partly have a shared pathogenesis. In the present study, we...
