ADARB2, adenosine deaminase, RNA-specific, B2; ALS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; ALYREF, Aly/REF export factor; FTD, frontotemporal dementia; hnRNP, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein; iPSC, induced pluripotent stem cell; ND, not determined; SRSF2 (SC35), serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 2 (also known as SC35).

aSequestration of hnRNP H into RNA foci was not observed in C9FTD iPSC-neurons [6].
