We identified novel biomarker miRNAs (e.g. hsa-miR-762) by integrating differentially expressed miRNAs with MIGWAS results for RA, as well as novel associated loci with significant genetic risk (rs56656810 at MIR762 at 16q11; n = 91 482, P = 3.6 × 10-8).
In this study, we have characterized both protein and RNA TDP-43 interactors from neuropathologically normal (control) and ALS-affected ventral lumbar spinal cord, including sporadic ALS (sALS) and familial cases harboring either a A4T mutant SOD1 or a 3' UTR *c.41G>A mutant FUS/TLS or expressing pathological c9orf72 expanded repeats.

To better mimic human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, we generated transgenic mice that exhibit moderate and ubiquitous expression of transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 species using genomic fragments that encode wild-type human transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 or familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-linked mutant transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 (G348C) and (A315T).

However, overexpressed p48 peptides containing the mutations found in three Ddb(-) XPE strains are inactive, and wild type p48 restores DDB activity to extracts from a fourth XPE Ddb(-) strain, GM01389, in which compound heterozygous mutations in DDB2 (p48) lead to a L350P change from one allele and a Asn-349 deletion from the other.
