🧪 Overview

C9orf72-like transcriptional signature in layer 5 pyramidal neurons marks AD-TDP co-pathology. A subset of deep layer excitatory neurons shows increased ATXN2 upregulation, RAN stress markers, and cytoplasmic TDP-43 mislocalization genes, suggesting common RNA metabolism disruption across FTLD-TDP and AD.
