Of the 261 Chinese FTD patients, 61 (23.4%) carried potential causative variants in FTD-related genes, including MAPT (n = 17), TBK1 (n = 7), OPTN (n = 6), GRN (n = 6), ANXA11 (n = 4), CHMP2B (n = 3), C9orf72 GGGGCC repeats (n = 2), CYLD (n = 2), PRNP (n = 2), SQSTM1 (n = 2), TARDBP (n = 2), VCP (n = 1), CCNF (n = 1), CHCHD10 (n = 1), SIGMAR1 (n = 1), CHCHD2 (n = 1), FUS (n = 1), TMEM106B (n = 1), and UBQLN2 (n = 1). Here, VCP is linked to frontotemporal dementia.
