RNA-Binding Proteins in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Neurodegeneration by Scott E. Ugras, James Shorter

“…While the causes of this devastating disease are poorly understood, recent advances have implicated RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that contain predicted prion domains as a major culprit. Specifically, mutations in the RBPs TDP-43 and FUS can cause ALS. …”

The Contribution of α-Synuclein Spreading to Parkinson’s Disease Synaptopathy by Francesca Longhena, Gaia Faustini, Cristina Missale, Marina Pizzi, PierFranco Spano, Arianna Bellucci

“…Indeed, monomeric, oligomeric, and fibrillary α-synuclein can move from cell to cell and can trigger the aggregation of the endogenous protein in recipient neurons. This novel “prion-like” behavior could further contribute to synaptic failure in PD and other synucleinopathies. …”
