A histopathological hallmark of both diseases is the cytoplasmic deposition of TDP-43 in neurons, which is attributed to both intrinsic (e.g., mutations, aberrant cleavage) and extrinsic factors (e.g., prolonged oxidative stress, impaired clearance pathways). Mutations and certain PTMs (e.g., cysteine oxidation) destabilize RNA binding, promoting monomer misfolding and increasing its half-life. Disruptions to core ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) subunits impede efficient processing, contributing to the clearance failure of misfolded TDP-43 monomers. The accumulation of monomers drives phase separation within stress granules, creating nucleation hotspots that eventually bypass the thermodynamic barrier, resulting in exponential growth. This rapid growth then culminates in the failure of the autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP) to contain the aggregation, resulting in a self-sustaining feed-forward loop. Here, we organize these factors into a conceptual kinetic cascade that links TDP-43 misfolding, phase separation, and clearance failure. Therapeutic strategies must therefore move beyond simple clearance and focus on targeting these kinetic inflection points (e.g., oligomer seeding, PTM modulation).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms27031136","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,23]],"date-time":"2026-01-23T09:16:59Z","timestamp":1769159819000},"page":"1136","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["From Evasion to Collapse: The Kinetic Cascade of TDP-43 and the Failure of Proteostasis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5669-8386","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Angelo","family":"Jamerlan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Bionanotechnology, Bionano Research Institute, Gachon University, Seongnam-si 13120, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5035-1488","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John","family":"Hulme","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Bionanotechnology, Bionano Research Institute, Gachon University, Seongnam-si 13120, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2084","DOI":"10.14336\/AD.2023.1118","article-title":"Molecular Mechanisms of Phase Separation and Amyloidosis of ALS\/FTD-Linked FUS and TDP-43","volume":"15","author":"Song","year":"2024","journal-title":"Aging Dis."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"452","DOI":"10.1038\/nn.2778","article-title":"Characterizing the RNA Targets and Position-Dependent Splicing Regulation by TDP-43","volume":"14","author":"Tollervey","year":"2011","journal-title":"Nat.
