Highlights d Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens identify regulators of DPR protein production d The RNA helicase DDX3X suppresses RAN translation of C9ORF72 (GGGGCC)n repeats d Elevating DDX3X expression decreases DPR levels in C9ORF72-ALS patient cells d Elevating DDX3X rescues pathological features and improves survival of patient iPSNs
The homozygous c.151+1G>T mutation in SIGMAR1 caused a novel form of autosomal recessive dHMN in a Chinese consanguineous family. Endoplasmic reticulum stress may have a role in the pathogenesis of dHMN.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
