Brain imaging in patients with transient ischemic attack: a comparison of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Brain imaging in stroke aims at the detection of the relevant ischemic tissue pathology. Cranial computed tomography (CT) is frequently used in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) but no data is available on how it directly compares

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a Therapeutic Strategy for Inherited Mitochondrial Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial transplantation (MTx) offers a promising therapeutic avenue for mitochondrial diseases. This review comprehensively evaluates MTx, differentiating its feasibility for mtDNA‐ and nDNA‐based disorders. It examines its potential for genetic correction, alongside inherent limitations, technical challenges, and crucial ethical considerations ...

Nutrition-Based Modulation of Poly-ADP-Ribosylation and its possible role in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease and the main reason of dementia in the elderly. On the pathological point of view, it is characterized by extracellular aggregates of amyloid peptides and intracellular deposits of tau

Central precocious puberty in a 3 year-old girl with Phenylketonuria: a rare association? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Central precocious puberty (CPP) and phenylketonuria (PKU) are two rare conditions, the latter being the rarer. To date, only one case featuring both these conditions has been reported, and hyperphenylalaninemia was assumed triggering CPP.

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Ischemic stroke: experimental models and reality

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica, 2017
The vast majority of cerebral stroke cases are caused by transient or permanent occlusion of a cerebral blood vessel (“ischemic stroke”) eventually leading to brain infarction.

Are There Causal Associations Between Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder and Cardiometabolic Phenotypes? A Genetic Correlation and Bi‐Directional Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In epidemiological studies, obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD) is robustly associated with increased risk of cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. However, the mechanisms behind these associations are unclear. We conducted genetic correlation analyses to explore shared genetic etiology and

The complexity of dementia development and its comorbidities: The collaborative cross‐mouse population for multivarious tasks approach

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases—including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis—poses a growing public health challenge. These conditions have traditionally been studied as isolated central nervous system disorders, but emerging evidence points to ...

SUMOylation of NaV1.2 channels mediates the early response to acute hypoxia in central neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The mechanism for the earliest response of central neurons to hypoxia-an increase in voltage-gated sodium current (INa)-has been unknown. Here, we show that hypoxia activates the Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier (SUMO) pathway in rat cerebellar granule ...

Common Proteomic and Genomic Contribution to Ischemic Brain Damage and Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yes, 2019
Ischemic brain damage is associated with the deposition of folding proteins, such as all fragments of the amyloid protein precursor and tau protein, in the intra- and extracellular spaces of neurons.
