Pathogenic TDP-43 Disrupts Axon Initial Segment Structure and Neuronal Excitability in a Human iPSC Model of ALS
2022-05-17
Abstract excerpt
Dysregulated neuronal excitability is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We sought to investigate how functional changes to the axon initial segment (AIS), the site of action potential generation, could impact neuronal excitability in a human iPSC model of ALS. We found that early (6-week) ALS-related TDP-43 G298S motor neurons showed an increase in the length of the AIS, relative to CRISPR-correc...
