Next-Generation Sequencing Advances the Genetic Diagnosis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) [PDF]
Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) is a cerebrovascular disease of genetic origin that predisposes to seizures, focal neurological deficits and fatal intracerebral hemorrhage. It may occur sporadically or in familial forms, segregating as an autosomal

The Role of Immune Infiltration and Oxidative Stress in the Progression of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation [PDF]
Purpose of Review To review how the immune microenvironment and oxidative stress modulate the initiation, maturation, and hemorrhagic conversion of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) and to appraise the therapeutic potential of immune‐directed ...

Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM)-like Vessel Lesion in the Aged ANKS1A-deficient Brain. [PDF]
In this study, we show that ANKS1A is specifically expressed in the brain endothelial cells of adult mice. ANKS1A deficiency in adult mice does not affect the differentiation, growth, or patterning of the cerebrovascular system; however, its absence ...

Focal epilepsy caused by single cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is associated with regional and global resting state functional connectivity (FC) disruption [PDF]
Epilepsy, including the type with focal onset, is increasingly viewed as a disorder of the brain network. Here we employed the functional connectivity (FC) metrics estimated from the resting state functional MRI (rsfMRI) to investigate the changes of ...

Use of balloon angioplasty for patients with intracranial large atherosclerotic acute ischemic stroke and cerebral cavernous malformation: a case report [PDF]
Thus far, clinical data relating to the treatment of cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) patients with acute stroke (AIS) are incredibly scare due to the low incidence of CCM.

Single-cell transcriptome profiling reveals dynamic cell populations and immune infiltration in cerebral cavernous malformation [PDF]
IntroductionThe cellular subpopulations and signaling pathways in the pathological tissues of cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) remain incompletely understood. To gain a deeper understanding of the pathogenesis of CCM, we aimed to comprehensively map

Cerebral cavernous malformation with prolonged postoperative paralysis due to perilesional inflammation: illustrative case. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Postoperative symptom exacerbation after resection of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) is usually due to surgical damage to the eloquent areas or venous outflow obstruction from injury to a developmental venous anomaly (DVA ...
