Article Abstract
Objective: This study analyzes the research hotspots and future directions of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Methods: Relevant literature was searched using the Web of Science database and analyzed using econometric tools such as CiteSpace and VOSviewer.
Results: A total of 145 articles were included in this study, involving 317 research institutions in 31 countries and regions. Acta Neuropathologica is a prominent journal in terms of issuance and influence, and countries such as the United States and Japan, as well as institutions such as the University of Pennsylvania, occupy an important position in the research. The keywords cover various aspects such as disease characteristics and gene mutations; highly-cited literature focuses on TDP-43 protein and C9orf72 gene mutations. Research hotspots include TDP-43 protein disease-driven pathomechanisms, RNA-related studies, clinical manifestations of the disease and genetic studies, etc. In recent years, research focus has shifted to RNA, C9orf72 gene and so on.
Conclusion: To our knowledge, this study is the first econometric evaluation of the FTLD-ALS literature, and although there are limitations such as relying on the number of documents and citation relationships, and a single source of data, it provides a valuable reference for research in this field and helps to promote subsequent research.

Abnormal accumulation of TAR DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting TDP-43 offer potential therapeutic strategies for these diseases. However, efficient and safe delivery of siRNAs to the central nervous system (CNS) remains a critical challenge.

Progranulin-deficient frontotemporal dementia (GRN-FTD) is a major cause of familial FTD with TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) pathology, which is linked to exon dysregulation. However, little is known about this dysregulation in glial and neuronal cells. Here, using splice-junction-covering enrichment probes, we introduce single-nuclei long-read RNA sequencing 2 (SnISOr-Seq2), targeting 3,630 high-interest genes without loss of precision, and complete the first single-cell, long-read-resolved case-control study for neurodegeneration.

Background: Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET hypometabolism is considered a biomarker of neurodegeneration. However, recent evidence revealed that glial cells contribute to the FDG-PET signal. In this context, microglial changes have been evaluated with 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO)-PET radiopharmaceuticals.

Neuronal hyperexcitability is a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but its relationship with the TDP-43 aggregates that comprise the predominant pathology in over 90% of ALS cases remains unclear. Emerging evidence indicates that TDP-43 pathology induces neuronal hyperexcitability, which may contribute to excitotoxic neuronal death. To characterize TDP-43 mediated network excitability changes in a disease-relevant model, we performed in vivo continuous electroencephalography monitoring and ex vivo acute hippocampal slice electrophysiology in rNLS8 mice (males and females), which express human TDP-43 with a defective nuclear localization signal (hTDP-43ΔNLS).

Pathological aggregation of transactive response DNA binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43), primarily driven by its low-complexity domain, is closely associated with various neurodegenerative diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Despite the therapeutic potential of preventing TDP-43 aggregation, no effective small molecule or biomacromolecule therapeutics have been successfully developed so far. Here, we introduce a protein design strategy that yields de novo designed proteins capable of stabilizing the key amyloidogenic region of TDP-43 in its native helical conformation with nanomolar binding affinity.
