Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The expansion of GGC repeats (typically exceeding 60 repeats) in the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of the NOTCH2NLC gene (N2C) is linked to N2C-related repeat expansion disorders (NREDs), such as neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), essential tremor (ET), and Parkinson's disease (PD). These disorders share common clinical manifestations, including parkinsonism,...
