Targeting RNA G‐quadruplexes as new treatment strategy for C9orf72 ALS/FTD
The recent discovery of a pathogenic expansion of a (GGGGCC)n repeat in the C9orf72 gene in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) led to a burst of mechanistic discoveries. In this issue, Simone et al () describe novel compounds targeting the G‐quadruplex (G‐Q) struct...
