Peripheral metabolic dysfunction drives sleep disruption in TDP-43 proteinopathy

Anyara Rodriguez, Jenny Luong, Samuel J. Belfer…·Matthew S. Kayser

This study shows that peripheral metabolic dysfunction, not just neuronal loss, causes sleep disruption in TDP-43 proteinopathy by identifying SIK3 as a key regulator.
