Cell‐to‐cell transmission of C9orf72 poly‐(Gly‐Ala) triggers key features of ALS/FTD
16 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
The C9orf72 repeat expansion causes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia, but the poor correlation between C9orf72‐specific pathology and TDP‐43 pathology linked to neurodegeneration hinders targeted therapeutic development. Here, we addressed the role of the aggregating dipeptide repeat proteins resulting from unconventional translation of the repeat in all reading frames. Poly‐GA promoted...
