摘要: Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a clinically, pathologically and genetically highly complex disorder. In the last few years enormous progress has been made in dissecting genetic etiology of FTLD. Mutations have identified progranulin gene (PGRN), charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) valosin-containing (VCP). these genes all lead to FTLD pathology characterized by ubiquitin-immunoreactive neuronal cytoplasmic intranuclear lentiform inclusions (FTLD-U). The similar suggests that may be connected trough common disease pathway leading neurodegeneration formation pathognomic inclusions. This review focuses on molecular processes underlying FTLD-U pathology.
