“…Rods can be formed either inside the nucleus or the cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic rods are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, variants of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) ( Bamburg and Wiggan, 2002 ; Bamburg and Bernstein, 2010 ; Schonhofen et al, 2014 ; Bamburg and Bernstein, 2016 ; Wang et al, 2020 ), and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) ( Walter et al, 2021 ). Intranuclear actin-cofilin rods were identified as hallmarks in muscle cells of patients with intranuclear rod myopathy (IRM), a specific form of nemaline myopathy ( Goebel and Warlo, 1997 ; Sparrow et al, 2003 ; Ilkovski et al, 2004 ; Domazetovska et al, 2007a ; Domazetovska et al, 2007 ), and Huntington’s disease (HD) ( Munsie et al, 2011 ).…”
