Cognitive Decline Typical of Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration in Transgenic Mice Expressing the 25-kDa C-Terminal Fragment of TDP-43
8 Nov 2011
Abstract excerpt
Transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is the pathological signature protein in several neurodegenerative disorders, including the majority of frontotemporal lobar degeneration cases (FTLD-TDP), motor neuron disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Pathological TDP-43 is mislocalized from its nuclear location to the cytoplasm, where it accumulates and is proteolytically cleaved to form C-terminal...
