=FUSopathies (FTLD-FUS)=
* Clinical manifestations depend on the distribution of the pathologic alterations in the CNS
* Currently 3 disorders among the FTLD-FUS subgroup.
* In contrast to ALS-FUS, no genetic alterations of FUS have been reported to date for cases within the FTLD-FUS group.
DDx (also FUS+ve):
*Spinocerebellar Ataxia (SCA)
*Huntington Disease (SD)
==Basophilic inclusion body disease==
* AKA: BIBD.
* Variable clinic (behavioral, cognitive alterations, parkinsonism, motor neuron diseases, ALS-like).
* Age of onset: 35-70 years.
* Intraneuronal cytoplasmic basophilic inclusion bodies.
* FUS+ve (universally).
* TAF15+ve
* alpha-Internexin+ve.
==Neuronal Intermediate Filament Inclusion Disease==
* AKA: NIFID.
* Hyaline conglomerates (brightly eosinophilic branching fibrillar structures embedded in a round, well-delineated, glassy vacuole).
* FUS+ve (heterogenous).
* Ubiquitin +/-ve.
* NF +ve (some subunits).
* p62 +/-ve.
* TDP43-ve.
* Tau-ve.
* α-synuclein-ve.
