“…Within the nucleus, TDP43 has essential roles in RNA transcription, splicing, and stability [13,14,[47][48][49][50], and transports select mRNA to localized sites of translation within the cytoplasm [20,51,52]. In addition to its function in RNA trafficking, cytoplasmic TDP43 also helps regulate RNA translation and homeostasis by sequestering transcripts in RNA granules [53][54][55][56]. Thus, the loss of TDP43 function stemming from inadequate nuclear protein, a gain of function arising from the accumulation of cytoplasmic TDP43, or both, might result in RNA misprocessing and subsequent neurodegeneration.…”
