TARDBP mutations in individuals with sporadic and familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

TL;DR: Findings further corroborate that TDP-43 is involved in ALS pathogenesis and reports eight missense mutations in nine individuals—six from individuals with sporadic ALS and three from those with familial ALS (FALS)—and a concurring increase of a smaller T DP-43 product.
Journal ArticleDOI

ALS: a disease of motor neurons and their nonneuronal neighbors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mutant superoxide dismutase (SOD1) was found to induce non-cell-autonomous motor neuron killing by an unknown gain of toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gain and loss of function of ALS-related mutations of TARDBP (TDP-43) cause motor deficits in vivo.

TL;DR: Together these approaches showed that TARDBP mutations cause motor neuron defects and toxicity, suggesting that both a toxic gain of function as well as a novel loss of function may be involved in the molecular mechanism by which mutant TDP-43 contributes to disease pathogenesis.

BNIP3 Heterodimerizes with Bcl-2/Bcl-XL and Induces Cell Death Independent of a Bcl-2 Homology 3 (BH3) Domain at Both Mitochondrial and Nonmitochondrial Sites

TL;DR: It is proposed that BNIP3 represents a subfamily of Bcl-2-related proteins that functions without a typical BH3 domain to regulate apoptosis from both mitochondrial and nonmitochondrial sites by selective B cl-2/Bcl-XL interactions.
