C9orf72 repeat length might influence clinical sub-phenotypes in dementia patients

Background: C9orf72 repeat expansions have been observed in a wide variety of neurodegenerative disorders. The cut-off between normal and pathogenic alleles is not well established as repeat sizing methods are often semi-quantitative. However, intermediate alleles might influence disease prevalence...
