Two Studies Tie Repeat Expansions to Rare, Progressive Neurodegenerative Disease

CGG repeat expansion in the 5'UTR of the NOTCH2NLC gene was identified in individuals afflicted with Neuronal intranuclear inclusion Disease(NIID), a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by eosinophilic hyaline intranuclear inclusions in neuronal and somatic cells.
