ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two neurodegenerative diseases with a toxic relationship, according to a new study. The study describes how a mutation in a gene, called C9ORF72, leads to toxicity in nerve cells – causing 10 percent of all cases of ALS, and an additional 10 percent of FTD.
