Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...

T-cadherin expression alternates with migrating neural crest cells in the trunk of the avian embryo [PDF]
Trunk neural crest cells and motor axons move in a segmental fashion through the rostral (anterior) half of each somitic sclerotome, avoiding the caudal (posterior) half.

The Selectivity of Butyrylcholinesterase Inhibitors Revisited
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are the primary target for single-molecule anti-Alzheimer’s disease (AD) therapeutics. Though AChE has historically been the focus of investigation for small-molecule inhibitors, interest in another cholinergic ...
