Physiological, behavioral and subjective sadness reactivity in frontotemporal dementia subtypes. [PDF]
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a neurodegenerative disease broadly characterized by socioemotional impairments, includes three clinical subtypes: behavioral variant FTD (bvFTD), semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) and non-fluent variant ...

Epilepsy in dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Summary of key clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of DRPLA‐related epilepsy from a systematic review and meta‐analysis of 1,191 patients. DRPLA patients with epilepsy showed earlier disease onset, longer CAG repeat expansion, and a tendency toward paternal inheritance. EEG findings frequently included photoparoxysmal responses.

TDP-43 is associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitinated inclusions (FTD-TDP). Here, the authors identify the transcriptional elongation factor Ell as a strong modifier of TDP-43-mediated ...

E3 ligase Praja1 mediates ubiquitination and degradation of microtubule‐associated protein tau
E3 ligase Praja1, but not its paralogue Praja2, recognizes and ubiquitinates tau protein for proteasomal degradation. This newly identified function of Praja1‐mediated tau degradation suggests its role in protein quality control, which may provide insights into the pathogenesis of tauopathies.

Bidirectional nucleolar dysfunction in C9orf72 frontotemporal lobar degeneration
An intronic GGGGCC expansion in C9orf72 is the most common known cause of both frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The repeat expansion leads to the generation of sense and antisense repeat RNA aggregates and

FET proteins TAF15 and EWS are selective markers that distinguish FTLD with FUS pathology from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with FUS mutations [PDF]
Accumulation of the DNA/RNA binding protein fused in sarcoma as cytoplasmic inclusions in neurons and glial cells is the pathological hallmark of all patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with mutations in FUS as well as in several subtypes of ...

Novel diagnostic cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers for pathologic subtypes of frontotemporal dementia identified by proteomics [PDF]
Introduction: Reliable cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers enabling identification of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and its pathologic subtypes are lacking.

Co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43 after extracellular vesicle delivery to cells
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from donor cells transfected with EGFP–2N4R‐tau or mCherry‐wtTDP‐43 were taken up by recipient cells, leading to cytosolic co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43. Molecular modeling revealed that tau and TDP‐43 directly interact through hydrogen bonding, suggesting a mechanistic link underlying their co‐pathology ...
