Extended FTLD pedigree segregating a Belgian GRN-null mutation: neuropathological heterogeneity in one family
Abstract Background In this paper, we describe the clinical and neuropathological findings of nine members of the Belgian progranulin gene (GRN) founder family. In this family, the loss-of-function mutation IVS1 + 5G > C was identified in 2006. In 2007, a clinical description of the mutation carr...
