Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that causes degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. The exact mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of ALS remain elusive. Many pathological processes are associated with ALS, including mitochondrial dysfunction, loss of proteostasis and defect in RNA metabolism. FUS protein develops insoluble aggregation in degenerated motor neurons of ALS patients, which is accelerated by ALS-linked FUS mutations. Recently, many studies have shown that stress granules (SGs) play an important role in proteinopathy of mutated FUS that drives ALS progression. SGs are stress-induced dynamic membraneless organelle in eukaryotic cells, containing translation-stalled mRNAs and RNA binding proteins. SGs regulate mRNA translation and signaling pathways by recruitment of mRNAs and signaling proteins respectively, leading to stress adaption and cell survival. However, SGs induced by some chronic stress exert pathological outcomes and are believed to act as a seed for the formation of pathological protein aggregation in many neurodegenerative diseases, including FUS mutations-induced protein aggregation. Here we briefly summarized and discussed the role of SGs in the pathogenesis of FUS-re- lated ALS and the therapeutic strategy targeting SGs. %K 应激颗粒,FUS,肌萎缩侧索硬化,神经退行性疾病
