This study uses human spinal cord organoids to model C9orf72 ALS, identifying early RNA splicing dysregulation and RBP network dysfunction as key features of the disease.

This study creates a mouse model with a heterozygous deletion of Sptlc1 exon 2 and finds no motor defects or ALS-like neuropathology, but homozygous mutants die prematurely.

This study shows that TMEM106B C-terminal fragments cause nucleocytoplasmic transport failure and TDP-43 mislocalization in aging brains, linking them to neurodegeneration.

This study identifies that antisense C4G2 repeat expanded RNAs, but not sense G4C2, activate the PKR/eIF2-dependent integrated stress response in C9orf72 FTD/ALS, leading to neuronal toxicity.

This study evaluates human-derived anti-poly-GA antibodies in cellular and animal models of C9ORF72 disease, showing mixed effects on poly-GA levels and disease progression.

This study shows that KIF5A ΔExon27 mutant causes neuronal toxicity through gain of function by forming aggregates and increasing motor activity.
