Neuid: A Novel Neuron‐Enriched LncRNA that Connects Epigenetic Gene Silencing to Alzheimer's Disease
ABSTRACT The increasing evidence that non‐coding RNAs can become deregulated during pathogenesis is dramatically expanding the space for drug discovery beyond the protein‐coding genome. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as key regulators of cellular function, yet most remain uncharacterized.

Mutational analysis of ITPR1 in a Taiwanese cohort with cerebellar ataxias.
BackgroundThe inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) receptor type 1 gene (ITPR1) encodes the IP3 receptor type 1 (IP3R1), which modulates intracellular calcium homeostasis and signaling. Mutations in ITPR1 have been implicated in inherited cerebellar ataxias.

Dyclonine rescues frataxin deficiency in animal models and buccal cells of patients with Friedreich's ataxia. [PDF]
Inherited deficiency in the mitochondrial protein frataxin (FXN) causes the rare disease Friedreich's ataxia (FA), for which there is no successful treatment. We identified a redox deficiency in FA cells and used this to model the disease.

A Tac1‐Expressing Brainstem Pathway Underlies the Pathogenesis of Trigeminal Neuralgia
A critical TG‐Sp5CTac1‐PBNTac1 pathway drives trigeminal neuropathic pain (TNP). Tac1‐expressing parabrachial nucleus (PBNTac1) neurons exhibit heightened responses to innocuous stimuli in TNP, and chemogenetic inhibition of these neurons effectively prevents TNP development.

Gastrointestinal Manifestations in Rubinstein‐Taybi Syndrome
ABSTRACT Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome is a rare genetic condition associated with a wide range of physical, cognitive, and developmental impairments, yet its gastrointestinal manifestations remain poorly characterized. Case reports and small series suggest a high prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux, constipation, dysphagia, and nutritional compromise ...

ABSTRACT The 1,4,5‐trisphosphate receptor type 1 (ITPR1) gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel, in which loss‐of‐function mutations have been associated with spinocerebellar ataxias and related neurological phenotypes. Only one gain‐of‐function mutation in the highly conserved suppressor domain of ITPR1 has been previously ...
