Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Homozygous mutations of granulin precursor ( GRN ) lead to neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 1 , a severe neurodevelopmental disease, in humans and neuroinflammation in mice 2 . Haploinsufficiency of GRN almost invariably causes frontotemporal dementia (FTD) 3,4 . The GRN locus produces progranulin (PGRN), a lysosomal precursor protein that is cleaved to granulin peptides 5,6 . Despite intens...
