Cerebellar atrophy is frequently associated with non-paraneoplastic sensory neuronopathy

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2011
Sensory neuronopathies (SN) are peripheral nervous system disorders associated with degeneration of dorsal root ganglion neurons. Despite the evidence of a defective proprioceptive sensory input in SN,the prominent gait and truncal ataxia raises the ...

Immune Modulatory Therapy for Severe Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in a Patient With Mitochondrial Complex I Deficiency: A Case Report

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) poses a serious global health challenge, particularly in cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Patients with preexisting mitochondrial disorders may be at increased risk for complications due to the specific impact of DENV on mitochondrial‐dependent cellular processes and immune function.

Anaplerotic Therapy Using Triheptanoin in Two Brothers Suffering from Aconitase 2 Deficiency

Metabolites
Citric acid cycle deficiencies are extremely rare due to their central role in energy metabolism. The ACO2 gene encodes the mitochondrial isoform of aconitase (aconitase 2), the second enzyme of the citric acid cycle.

Cerebellar Structural and N-Acetylaspartate, Choline, and Creatine Metabolic Profiles in Parkinson’s Disease and Essential Tremor

Diagnostics
Background: The role of the cerebellum in Parkinson’s disease (PD), particularly in tremor-dominant subtypes, is increasingly recognized. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) provide anatomical and metabolic insights,

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Gephyrin Neurological Autoimmunity

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Gephyrin is a postsynaptic scaffold protein essential for inhibitory neurotransmission. Gephyrin‐immunoglobulin G (IgG) was reported, decades ago, in a single case of paraneoplastic stiff‐person‐like syndrome, but its broader clinical relevance remains unknown.

Cardiovascular Exercise Drives Neuroprotection in a Mouse Model of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 1 Via Rescue of Aberrant Splicing

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia 1 (SCA1) is a fatal hereditary neurodegenerative disorder with no approved therapies, and gene‐targeting strategies have thus far failed in clinical trials. Exercise remains the only intervention shown to provide clinical benefit in patients with spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs), yet the underlying mechanisms remain ...

Perivascular Spaces as Determinants of Amyloid, Tau, and Vascular Biomarker Progression

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐visible enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) are markers of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and aging, processes implicated in both neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular pathologies. However, longitudinal positron emission tomography (PET) studies examining PVS as a mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease ...
