Neuropathology of a patient with Parkinson's disease and biallelic expansion in RFC1

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
This is the first report of neuropathology in biallelic RFC1 expansion‐associated Parkinson’s disease (PD). It shows a synucleinopathy of intraneuronal Lewy bodies consistent with the clinical PD diagnosis while neuropathological CANVAS (Cerebellar Ataxia with Neuropathy and bilateral Vestibular Areflexia) features were absent.

Upper limb neuropathy such as carpal tunnel syndrome as an initial manifestation of ATTR Val30Met familial amyloid polyneuropathy [PDF]

open access: yesAmyloid, 2010
We report here two patients with amyloidogenic transthyretin (ATTR) Val30Met familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) who developed numbness in both hands and were diagnosed as having bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). In both patients systemic TTR amyloidosis consisting of polyneuropathy affecting both upper and lower limbs and/or autonomic ...

Identification of Copy Number Variants as a Suspected Cause of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Whole‐exome sequencing of 111 patients with suspected familial cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) identified novel copy number variants in four patients across NOTCH3, LMNB1, and COL4A2, using bioinformatic and molecular techniques. These validated CNVs suggest structural variation is an underrecognized potential causal contributor to monogenic CSVD ...

Protein mis-folding and human disease

open access: yes, 2010
Serum Amyloid P Component (SAP), a putative molecular chaperone, is a homopentamericplasma protein of 25kDa subunits. It binds to the amyloid fibrils ofmisfolded proteins, which cause amyloidosis in humans. SAP not only stabilizesamyloid fibrils but also
