Characterizing white matter hyperintensities in myotonic dystrophy type 1 through IVIM derived metrics

open access: yesScientific Reports
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a genetic disease which affects multiple systems including the central nervous system. One of its key neuroimaging biomarkers are white matter hyperintensities (WMHs). The clinical relevance of WMHs remains unclear, and

Biomarkers in autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
The autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) represent individual heterogeneity with different disease entities. Although clinical and imaging features make it possible to characterize larger patient cohorts, they may not provide ...

New Application of 123I-Iodoamphetamine SPECT for the Diagnosis of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

open access: yes, 2014
123I-iodoamphetamine (IMP) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is used to evaluate the cerebral blood flow (CBF) in patients with either cerebrovascular or neurodegenerative diseases [3 6].

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Rational Design of Inverted F‐Type Heterojunctions for Photocatalytic Emerging Contaminant Degradation

open access: yesCarbon Energy
The development of efficient photocatalytic systems for antibiotic degradation remains hindered by the inherent limitations of conventional heterojunctions, particularly the rapid charge recombination associated with Type‐I band alignments.

Functions and effects of creatine in the central nervous system

open access: yes, 2008
Creatine kinase catalyses the reversible transphosphorylation of creatine by ATP. In the cell, creatine kinase isoenzymes are specifically localized at strategic sites of ATP consumption to efficiently regenerate ATP in situ via phosphocreatine or at ...

The peripheral nervous system and the pathogenesis of prion diseases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Prion diseases are inevitably fatal neurodegenerative conditions which affect humans and a wide variety of animals. Unlike other protein aggregation diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and polyglutamine repeat diseases, prion diseases are unique ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Role of Nuclear Receptors in Central Nervous System Development and Associated Diseases

open access: yes, 2016
The nuclear hormone receptor (NHR) superfamily is composed of a wide range of receptors involved in a myriad of important biological processes, including development, growth, metabolism, and maintenance.
