Excerpt

We read with interest the work by Park and colleagues, which attempted to elucidate the composition of neuronal intranuclear inclusions (NIIs), central to the pathology of neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) [1]. NIID is a clinically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder characterised by these intranuclear eosinophilic ubiquitinated inclusions in both neuronal and non-neuronal cells [2]. Using different proteomic approaches to study compositionally biased regions, which have traditionally been elusive to analysis due to their inherent insolubility, the authors identified hornerin, a serine-rich protein, to be a major component of the inclusions [1]. …
