TLDR
A system of nosology was introduced that grouped the FTLD subtypes into broad categories, based on the molecular defect that is most characteristic, according to current evidence, and provided a concise and consistent terminology that has now been widely adopted in the literature.

The ubiquitin proteasome system in neurodegenerative diseases: culprit, accomplice or victim?

TL;DR: Critical reviewing the involvement of the UPS in specific neurodegenerative diseases is focused on and it is discussed if UPS impairment is a cause, a consequence or both of the disease.

Circulating brain-enriched microRNAs as novel biomarkers for detection and differentiation of neurodegenerative diseases

TL;DR: The assessment of circulating brain-enriched microRNAs as potential biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis suggests the possibility of developing microRNA-based diagnostics for detection and differentiation of NDs.

Activity-dependent FUS dysregulation disrupts synaptic homeostasis

TL;DR: Novel transgenic mouse models expressing low levels of wild-type and mutant human FUS, both of which recapitulate aspects of the human diseases are generated, and a profound difference in the underlying mechanisms by which missense mutation and wild- type overexpression cause disease is found.

A new subtype of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with FUS pathology.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that FUS is the pathological protein in a significant subgroup of sporadic FTD and reinforce the concept that FTd and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are closely related conditions.

Abundant FUS-immunoreactive pathology in neuronal intermediate filament inclusion disease.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that FUS may play an important role in the pathogenesis of NIFID, and double-label immunofluorescence confirmed that many cells had only FUS- positive inclusions and that all cells with IF-positive inclusions also contained pathological FUS.
