TL;DR: The chromosome 9p21 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia (ALS-FTD) locus contains one of the last major unidentified autosomal-dominant genes underlying these common neurodegenerative diseases, and a large hexanucleotide repeat expansion in the first intron of C9ORF72 is shown.

TL;DR: Interestingly, mutations predominantly in the N-terminal motor domain of KIF5A are causative for two neurodegenerative diseases: hereditary spastic paraplegia and Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2.

TL;DR: The data suggest the presence of a founder mutation for chromosome 9p21-linked ALS in the Finnish population, and the overlap with the risk haplotype recently reported for frontotemporal dementia provides further evidence of a shared genetic cause for these two neurodegenerative diseases.

Amyloid precursor protein ( APP ) A673T mutation in the elderly Finnish population

TL;DR: The low amount of parenchymal β-amyloid pathology at the age of 104 supports the concept that the A673T variant protects the brain against β-amide pathology and AD.

Cerebrospinal Fluid TDP-43 in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Patients with and without the C9ORF72 Hexanucleotide Expansion.

TL;DR: CSF TDP-43 does not seem to distinguish the C9ORF72 expansion carriers from noncarriers, however, higher CSF TPD-43 levels were detected in ALS than in FTLD, which might be an indicator of a more rapid progression of T DP-43 pathology in ALS.
