Abstract excerpt
Motor neuron degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) caused by mutations in superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) is partly non-cell autonomous, involving cellular dysfunction of astrocytes. Whether non-cell autonomous effects occur in other forms of ALS, such as TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43)-related disease, remains unclear. Here, we characterised the impact of mutant TDP-43 expression on primary...
