Modulation of retroviral capsid assembly halts ARC-mediated TDP-43 intercellular spreading
2026-07-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Intercellular propagation of pathological TDP-43 drives the progression of ALS and FTD, yet the mechanisms enabling transmission remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that Activity-regulated cytoskeleton associated protein (ARC/Arg3.1) is pathologically subverted to act as a retroviral-like capsid vehicle for TDP-43 spreading. In a Drosophila model, we reveal that massive Arc1 upregulation drives...
