Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is the most common motor neuron disease of the adulthood. Genetic analyses performed on cases with sporadic ALS (sALS) and familial ALS (fALS) have revealed mutations most commonly in the genes C9orf72, SOD1, TARDBP, FUS ...

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease affecting both upper and lower motoneurons. The transactive response DNA binding protein (TARDBP) gene, encoding for TDP-43, is one of the most commonly mutated gene associated with familial cases of

Screening for TARDBP mutations in Japanese familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
TAR-DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43), encoded by the TARDBP gene on chromosome 1p36.22, has been identified as the major pathological protein in abnormal inclusions in neurons and glial cells in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS), SOD1-negative familial ALS (FALS) and frontotemporal lobar dementia (FTLD).

Characterization of the upstream and intron promoters of the gene encoding TAR DNA-binding protein
TAR DNA-binding protein (TDP-43, encoded by TARDBP) is a multifunctional protein that regulates transcription and RNA metabolism by binding DNA or RNA. TDP-43 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) because abnormal

Mutations in the 43 kDa transactive-response (TAR)-DNA-binding protein (TARDBP) are associated with 2–5% of familial Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) cases. TAR DNA-Binding Protein 43 (TDP-43) is an RNA/DNA-binding protein involved in several cellular

Gene-specific mitochondria dysfunctions in human TARDBP and C9ORF72 fibroblasts [PDF]
Dysregulation of RNA metabolism represents an important pathogenetic mechanism in both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) due to the involvement of the DNA/RNA-binding proteins TDP-43 and FUS and, more recently, of C9ORF72.

The Genetics of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Current Insights [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that results in loss of the upper and lower motor neurons from motor cortex, brainstem and spinal cord.

Mutations in TARDBP, encoding Tar DNA binding protein-43 (TDP43), cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Attempts to model TDP43 dysfunction in mice have used knockouts or transgenic overexpressors, which have ...

Pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or motor neuron disease is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder. The primary involvement is of motor neurons in the brain, spinal cord and peripherally. There is secondary weakness of muscles

Rare mutations in SQSTM1 modify susceptibility to frontotemporal lobar degeneration [PDF]
Mutations in the gene coding for Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) have been genetically associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Paget disease of bone. In the present study, we analyzed the SQSTM1 coding sequence for mutations in an extended cohort
