Abstract
In this issue of Neuron, Wu et al.1 show that nuclear speckle proteins are sequestered by both nuclear RNA foci and cytoplasmic dipeptide repeat aggregates in C9ORF72-ALS/FTD. Consequently, dysregulation of splicing induces widespread splicing alterations and contributes to neurodegeneration.
