Processing of progranulin into granulins involves multiple lysosomal proteases and is affected in frontotemporal lobar degeneration

Abstract Background Progranulin loss-of-function mutations are linked to frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 positive inclusions (FTLD-TDP-Pgrn). Progranulin (PGRN) is an intracellular and secreted pro-protein that is proteolytically cleaved into individual granulin peptides, which are inc...
