Next, Ma et al. and Brown et al. analyzed by bulk RNA sequencing a large set of brain samples from FTD or ALS patients with TDP-43 pathology (thus named as FTD-TDP and ALS-TDP) and without TDP-43 pathology, including FTD-FUS, FTD-TAU, and ALS-SOD1 (named based on the presence of FUS, TAU, or SOD1 pathology). This evidence concerns the gene TARDBP and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
