Real‐world‐data for phenotypes and genotypes of rare monogenic genetic epilepsies and genes of uncertain significance for epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives The objectives of this study were to develop a real‐world‐data (RWD) database for patients with epilepsy to provide further real‐world‐evidence (RWE) for monogenic genetic epilepsies; to assess the usefulness of a diagnostic algorithm in epilepsy; and to examine protein 3D structures using in silico tools to predict variant ...

Progressive myoclonus epilepsy in Down syndrome with Alzheimer's disease: An 11‐year longitudinal study and proposed diagnostic red flags

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) face an ultra‐high risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Within this continuum, Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy (PME) has emerged as a marker of advanced neurodegeneration. Building on our 2014 characterization of this syndrome, we aimed to define its long‐term natural history and pathological substrate.

Leptin Reduces Running in a Rodent Anorexia Nervosa Model via a Distributed Neural Network

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperactivity is a persistent and clinically relevant symptom in anorexia nervosa (AN). Hyperactivity is inversely correlated with leptin levels. While systemic leptin administration attenuates hyperactivity in rodent models, the specific brain regions mediating this effect remain unclear.

The Molecular Biology of Axon Guidance

Science, 1996
Neuronal growth cones navigate over long distances along specific pathways to find their correct targets. The mechanisms and molecules that direct this pathfinding are the topics of this review. Growth cones appear to be guided by at least four different mechanisms: contact attraction, chemoattraction, contact repulsion, and chemorepulsion. Evidence is

Neurogenesis, neuronal migration, and axon guidance.

Handbook of Clinical Neurology, 2020
Development of the central nervous system (CNS) is a complex, dynamic process that involves a precisely orchestrated sequence of genetic, environmental, biochemical, and physical factors from early embryonic stages to postnatal life.

Axon guidance and somites

Cell and Tissue Research, 1997
The segmental arrangement of spinal nerves in higher vertebrate embryos provides a simple system in which to study the factors that influence axon pathfinding. Developing motor and sensory axons are intimately associated with surrounding tissues that direct axon guidance. We argue that two distinct guidance mechanisms, viz.

Axon guidance: Netrins

Cellular Migration and Formation of Axons and Dendrites, 2020
Circumferential axon migrations toward and away from the midline are a major feature of the development of all bilateral animals. Prominent among the guidance cues regulating midline guidance are Netrins, a small family of secreted proteins that have a ...

Diffusion in Axon Guidance

European Journal of Neuroscience, 1997
AbstractAxon guidance by target‐derived diffusible factors plays an important role in the development of the nervous system. This paper considers the constraints imposed on this process by the mathematics of diffusion. A point source continuously producing a factor into an infinite three‐dimensional volume is considered as a model for both the in vivo ...

Longitudinal axon guidance

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2006
Our knowledge about molecular mechanisms underlying axon guidance along the antero-posterior axis in contrast to the dorso-ventral axis of the developing nervous system is very limited. During the past two years in vitro and in vivo studies have indicated that morphogens have a role in longitudinal axon guidance.
