Abstract
The molecular mechanisms that underlie chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72)-associated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia are rapidly emerging. Two potential disease mechanisms have been postulated - gain or loss of function. We provide an overview of recent advances that support or oppose gain-of-function and loss-of-function mechanisms.
