Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a pathological process that occurs in frontotemporal dementia.

It is characterized by atrophy in the frontal lobe and temporal lobe of the brain, with sparing of the parietal and occipital lobes. Common proteinopathies that are found in FTLD include the accumulation of tau proteins and TARDBPs. Mutations in the C9orf72 gene have been established as a major genetic contribution of FTLD, although defects in the GRN and MAPT genes are also associated with it.[1]
