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...

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to identify a C9-ALS/FTD specific genomic profile in fibroblast lines that is distinct from sporadic ALS without C9orf72 expansion and non-neurologic control cells. The study will then evaluate the effect on this identified profile of ASO treatment targetin...

During cell stress, the transcription and translation of immediate early genes are prioritized, while most other mRNAs are stored away in stress granules or degraded in P-bodies. TIA-1 is an mRNA binding protein that needs to translocate from the nucleus to seed the formation of stress granules in t...

Aging is the predominant risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. One key phenotype as brain ages is the aberrant innate immune response characterized by proinflammation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying aging-associated proinflammation are poorly defined. Whether chronic inflammation...

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two neurodegenerative diseases linked, at the pathologic and genetic level, to the macrutubule associated protein tau. We identified and replicated a dose-dependent effect of the risk-associated H1 haplotype on methylation le...

Progranulin (GRN) mutations cause frontotemporal dementia (FTD), but GRN's function in the CNS remains largely unknown. To identify the pathways downstream of GRN, we used weighted genome co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to develop a systems-level view of transcriptional alterations in a human...

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to identify expression changes after ASO-dependent depletion of mouse C9orf72 in the spinal cord of wild-type C57Bl/6 female mice. Methods: Strand specific RNA-seq was performed using RNAs extracted from spinal cord of C57Bl/6 mice two weeks after intracere...
