Frontotemporal Dementia And/or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis 4; Ftdals4

Description

Frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-4 is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by adult or late adult onset of cognitive impairment, behavioral abnormalities, and speech apraxia and/or upper and lower motor neuron signs. The phenotype is highly variable (summary by Freischmidt et al., 2015).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of FTDALS, see FTDALS1 (OMIM ).
