Endogenous Retroviruses and TDP-43 Proteinopathy Form a Sustaining Feedback to Drive the Intercellular Spread of Neurodegeneration
2022-07-21
Abstract excerpt
Neurodegenerative disorders are thought to initiate focally and then spread over time through neural circuits. A mechanism that has been proposed to explain this is the inter-cellular movement of misfolded “prion-like” proteins that then recruit normally folded proteins in recipient cells to also adopt pathological conformations. Such a mechanism has been proposed, for example, to explain the propagation of abnorm...
