RAN and frontotemporal dementia: Pathological disruption of Nucleocytoplasmic Transport (NCT), such as the mis-localization of nuclear pore complex proteins (Nups), nuclear transport receptors, Ran-GTPase, and RanGAP1, are seen in both animal models and in familial and sporadic forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontal temporal dementia and frontal temporal lobar degeneration (FTD\FTLD), and Alzheimer’s and Alzheimer’s Related Dementias (AD/ADRD).
