STMN2 Depletion, Translation Deficits, and ALS Stress
2026-08-28
The reference study shows that neuronal STMN2 depletion can arise through proteasomal degradation, phosphorylation, stress-granule-associated translation repression, and chronic translation deficits, even without TDP-43 splicing failure. Its findings connect STMN2 protein instability with neuronal stress vulnerability and identify mRNA upregulation as a possible compensatory response in selected ALS contexts.
