- Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are neurodegenerative disorders with adult onset that generally progress rapidly after the onset of symptoms. The 2 conditions are independent, but they also overlap in a significant proportion of families, including 2 families in which the disorders are reported to be linked to chromosome 9p. A locus was established between the markers D9S2154 and D9S1791 by comparing haplotypes between these families.
