Oxidative Stress and Immune System in Vitiligo and Thyroid Diseases. [PDF]
Vitiligo is an acquired dermatological disease frequently associated with autoimmune thyroid disorders. Several theories have been proposed so far to unravel the complex vitiligo pathogenesis.

Abstract Proteostatic regulation of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate‐limiting enzyme in dopamine biosynthesis, is crucial for maintaining proper brain neurotransmitter homeostasis. Variants of the TH gene are associated with tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency (THD), a rare disorder with a wide phenotypic spectrum and variable response to treatment ...

Mouse models for inherited monoamine neurotransmitter disorders
Abstract Several mouse models have been developed to study human defects of primary and secondary inherited monoamine neurotransmitter disorders (iMND). As the field continues to expand, current defects in corresponding mouse models include enzymes and a molecular co‐chaperone involved in monoamine synthesis and metabolism (PAH, TH, PITX3, AADC, DBH ...

Long-term Western diet fed apolipoprotein E-deficient rats exhibit only modest early atherosclerotic characteristics [PDF]
In the apolipoprotein E–deficient mouse, the gut microbiota has an impact on the development of atherosclerosis, but whether such correlations are also present in rats requires investigation.
