RAB39B Related Parkinsonism in an Italian Family: A Unique Use of Advanced Therapies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that may sometimes be caused by deleterious genetic variants. Among them, RAB39B polymorphisms are known as rare causes of early‐onset PD associated with intellectual disability (Waisman's syndrome).

Adenosine A1 Receptor Agonist 2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine and Hippocampal Excitability During Brain Development in Rats

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Objective: The adenosinergic system may influence excitability in the brain. Endogenous and exogenous adenosine has anticonvulsant activity presumably by activating A1 receptors.

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

Chemerin Elicits Potent Constrictor Actions via Chemokine‐Like Receptor 1 (CMKLR1), not G‐Protein‐Coupled Receptor 1 (GPR1), in Human and Rat Vasculature

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundCirculating levels of chemerin are significantly higher in hypertensive patients and positively correlate with blood pressure. Chemerin activates chemokine‐like receptor 1 (CMKLR1 or ChemR23) and is proposed to activate the “orphan” G‐protein ...

A Gpr120 Selective Agonist Improves Insulin Resistance and Chronic Inflammation

Nature Medicine, 2014
It is well known that the ω–3 fatty acids (ω–3-FAs; also known as n–3 fatty acids) can exert potent anti-inflammatory effects. Commonly consumed as fish products, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals, ω–3-FAs have a number of health benefits ascribed ...

The efficiency of CD4 recruitment to ligand-engaged TCR controls the agonist/partial agonist properties of peptide-MHC molecule ligands. [PDF]

, 1997
One hypothesis seeking to explain the signaling and biological properties of T cell receptor for antigen (TCR) partial agonists and antagonists is the coreceptor density/kinetic model, which proposes that the pharmacologic behavior of a TCR ligand is ...

LOXHD1 and RHOB Expression by Monocytes Predicts Progressive Systemic Sclerosis associated Interstitial Lung Disease

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective A leading cause of death among scleroderma (SSc) patients, interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.
