Research Abstract

We succeeded in establishing the first non-human primate model of ALS by overexpression of wild-type human TDP-43 in the spinal cord of cynomolgus monkeys. The distribution of exogenous wild-type human TDP-43 in this model was represented not only at the anterior horn neurons injected side, but at those of the other side of the same spinal cord, at those injected side from the cervical to lumbar level and at Betz neurons in the precentral area of motor cortex.
To elucidate the pathomechanism of exogenous TDP-43 propagation in this model, we designed new constructs using pAAV-IRES-GFP vector, which could express both GFP and flag-tagged human TDP-43. Exogenous TDP-43 positive and GFP negative neurons were observed at more broad range of spinal cord than GFP positive and TDP-43 negative neurons. These data might indicate that TDP-43 could propagate along the same column (intracolumn spread), among different columns (intercolumn spread) and neighboring cells (local cell-to-cell spread).
