Multiple FTD patient-specific iPSC lines were generated for the first time, Human neurons of progranulin haploinsufficiency have been established. PGRN S116X neurons are more sensitive to kinase inhibitors-induced cell stress, which can be rescued by ectopic progranulin expression, revealing progran...

Regulation of embryonic liver growth remains largely elusive. Progranulin has been discussed in pathological liver growth; however, the functional role of Pgrn in embryonic liver growth has never been addressed. Knockdown of GrnA, the orthologue of mammalian pgrn in zebrafish, displayed a deficien...

Description: Progranulin deficiency is associated with neurodegeneration in humans and in mice. We performed a deep proteomic screen of the pre-frontal cortex in aged (13-15 months) female progranulin-deficient mice (GRN-/-) and mice with a neuron-specific inducible overexpression of progranulin (SL...

Microglia repair injury and maintain homeostasis in the brain, but whether aberrant microglial activation can contribute to neurodegeneration remains unclear. Here, we use transcriptome profiling to demonstrate that deficiency in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) gene progranulin (Grn) leads to an age-d...

Progranulin promotes dendritic growth of hippocampal neurons by acting on astrocytes
Progranulin insufficiency and TDP-43 overexpression interact to worsen FTD-related phenotypes in mice.
Effect of mouse and human progranulin haploinsufficiency on mouse cortical transcriptome at 18 months of age.
Progranulin is a secreted pro-protein that is trafficked to lysosomes and exerts protective effects in the brain. Progranulin (GRN) mutations, most of which cause progranulin haploinsufficiency, are a major genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Restoring progranulin to people with GRN muta...

Antisense oligonucleotides targeting the miR-29b binding site in the GRN mRNA increase progranulin translation
Cross-linking and immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing was used to identify binding sites within 6,304 genes as the brain RNA targets for TDP-43, an RNA binding protein which when mutated causes Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Use of massively parallel sequencing and spli...
