Abstract
In a recent study, Guo and colleagues characterised the function of an elusive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) anion channel protein, Chloride Channel CLiC Like 1 (CLCC1), and identified rare CLCC1 variants in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). CLCC1 mutants disrupted ER function in vitro and promoted ALS-like pathology and neurodegeneration in mice. This work reveals a previously uncharacterised pathway involved in ER calcium release and highlights new pathogenic mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration.
期刊介绍:
For over four decades, Trends in Neurosciences (TINS) has been a prominent source of inspiring reviews and commentaries across all disciplines of neuroscience. TINS is a monthly, peer-reviewed journal, and its articles are curated by the Editor and authored by leading researchers in their respective fields. The journal communicates exciting advances in brain research, serves as a voice for the global neuroscience community, and highlights the contribution of neuroscientific research to medicine and society.
