Abstract excerpt
Protein homeostasis and lipid metabolism are essential processes frequently disrupted in neurodegenerative diseases. However, their mechanistic intersection in disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) remains unclear. Ubiquilin 2 (UBQLN2) is a protein quality control factor linked to ALS/FTD. Through multi-omic analyses of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived...
