TP73 was recently reported to cause Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). ALS and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) are considered to be part of a continuum. We aimed to investigate whether TP73 variants may be associated with FTD. We studied a thoroughly investigated cohort of 65 Portuguese Frontotemporal Dementia patients by Whole-Exome Sequencing. Patients had no other known genetic cause for their disease. Of the 65 patients studied, two had rare variants in TP73 (p.Gly605Ser and p.Arg347Trp). Both had MAF<0.001 and are predicted to be pathogenic in silico. Both patients showed a phenotype with predominant language impairment, suggestive of non-fluent progressive aphasia. We show that thoroughly studied patients without other known genetic changes harbour TP73 rare variants, which are pathogenic in silico. This adds evidence to the role of TP73 in the ALS-FTD spectrum and especially in primary progressive aphasia cases.
