Abstract

ABSTRACT Progranulin haploinsufficiency causes frontotemporal dementia with tau‐negative, ubiq‐uitin‐positive neuronal inclusion pathology. In this study, we showed that progranulin‐deficient mice displayed increased depression‐ and disinhibition‐like behavior, as well as deficits in social recognition from a relatively young age. These mice did not have any deficit in locomotion or exploration. Eighteen‐month‐old progranulin‐deficient mice demonstrated impaired spatial learning and memory in the Morris water maze. In addition to behavioral deficits, progranulin‐deficient mice showed a progressive development of neuropathology from 12 mo of age, including enhanced activation of microglia and astro‐cytes and ubiquitination and cytoplasmic accumulation of phosphorylated TDP‐43. Thus, progranulin deficiency induced FTD‐like behavioral and neuro‐pathological deficits. These mice may serve as an important tool for deciphering underlying mechanisms in frontotemporal dementia.—Yin, F., Du‐mont, M., Banerjee, R., Ma, Y., Li, H., Lin, M. T., Beal, M.

  • Lipid droplet containing immune cells in the periphery are detrimental, including foamy macrophages in atherosclerosis or lipid droplet-rich eosinophils in experimental models of allergy.

    “This is in line with findings which have shown that lipid droplet containing immune cells in the periphery are detrimental, including foamy macrophages in atherosclerosis10 or lipid droplet-rich eosinophils in experimental models of allergy37.”

    The citation is attached to the example of lipid droplet-rich eosinophils in experimental allergy models. Our copy’s Discussion addresses inflammation and immune responses in progranulin-deficient mice, but searches for eosinophils, lipid droplets, and allergy found no passage addressing that example.

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.
