Frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are fatal and incurable neurodegenerative diseases linked to the pathological aggregation of the TDP-43 protein. This is an essential DNA/RNA-binding protein involved in transcription regulation, pre-RNA processing, and RNA transport. Having suitable animal models to study the mechanisms of TDP-43 aggregation is crucial to develop treatments against disease. We have previously demonstrated that the killifish Nothobranchius furzeri offers the advantage of being the shortest-lived vertebrate with a clear aging phenotype. Here, we show that the two N.?furzeri paralogs of TDP-43?share high sequence homology with the human protein and recapitulate its cellular and biophysical behavior. During aging, N.?furzeri TDP-43?spontaneously forms insoluble intracellular aggregates with amyloid characteristics and colocalizes with stress granules. Our results propose this organism as a valuable new model of TDP-43-related pathologies making it a powerful tool for the study of disease mechanism.
