Characterizing Cutaneous α‐Synuclein Deposition and Seeding Activity in Parkinson's Disease Subtypes
ABSTRACT Objective Cutaneous phosphorylated α‐synuclein (p‐syn) and α‐synuclein seeding activity are promising biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), but their clinical value remains uncertain due to disease heterogeneity. This study evaluates these two biomarkers in PD patients to inform phenotype‐specific diagnosis and disease severity assessment ...

Effective Policy Frameworks for the Organisation of Career Guidance Services A Review of the Literature [PDF]
This paper focuses on how public policy shapes career guidance and establishes a system within which individuals can access career support. Governments are critical to career guidance primarily as funders of the activity, but also importantly as ...

ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether myelin‐sensitive quantitative MRI reveals microstructural abnormalities in normal‐appearing cortex (NACtx) in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), indicating that conventional MRI underestimates remission residual cortical injury.

Axon guidance by targeted photoacoustic stimulation [PDF]
Repairing injured nervous systems requires the ability to regenerate axons and to guide growing axons to their targets. To achieve guidance, mechanistic studies in physiological axon guidance in developing neurons will be critical.

Delta protocadherin 10 is regulated by activity in the mouse main olfactory system
Olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) are thought to use activity-dependent and independent mechanisms to regulate the expression of axon guidance genes. However, defining the molecular mechanisms that underlie activity-dependent OSN guidance has remained ...

Extracellular matrix regulates UNC-6 (netrin) axon guidance by controlling the direction of intracellular UNC-40 (DCC) outgrowth activity. [PDF]
How extracellular molecules influence the direction of axon guidance is poorly understood. The HSN axon of Caenorhabditis elegans is guided towards a ventral source of secreted UNC-6 (netrin). The axon's outgrowth response to UNC-6 is mediated by the UNC-

Lbx1-expressing cells lacking the repellent EphA4 receptor are involved in axonal midline crossing in the spinal cord and evoke a minor gait defect [PDF]
Most limbed animals, including mice and human beings, show alternating hindlimb movement mediated by neuronal circuits in the spinal cord. However, when the repulsive EphA4 receptor expressed by subsets of spinal neurons is mutated, hindlimbs lose ...

Microtubule dynamics in axon guidance [PDF]
Precise modulation of the cytoskeleton is involved in a variety of cellular processes including cell division, migration, polarity, and adhesion. In developing post-mitotic neurons, extracellular guidance cues not only trigger signaling cascades that act at a distance to indirectly regulate microtubule distribution, and assembly and disassembly in the ...
