Abstract

Significance: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an incurable neurodegenerative disease that causes paralysis and death. TDP-43 is a protein that regulates gene expression. TDP-43 aggregation and depletion from cell nucleus are found in ALS. Therefore, TDP-43 may cause neurodegeneration by generating toxicity from its aggregation or by a loss of its function. Our experiments test the consequence of a partial loss of TDP-43 function in mice. The results demonstrate that a partial loss of TDP-43 function is sufficient to cause neurodegeneration and ALS symptoms. In addition, we have found evidence for TDP-43 dysfunction in human ALS. Therefore, we propose that TDP-43 dysfunction causes neurodegeneration in the human disease, and future therapy should aim to restore the normal function of TDP-43.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
