ABSTRACT Objective Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) comprises rare genetic disorders characterized by predominantly extrapyramidal symptoms and iron deposition in the basal ganglia. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detects qualitative changes but cannot accurately quantify iron accumulation. Quantitative susceptibility

Plasma Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Correlates With Brain Metal Burden in Wilson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Neuroinflammation driven by extracellular copper contributes to neuronal damage in Wilson's disease (WD). This study investigated the relationship between brain metal burden and peripheral neuroinflammation markers in WD. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional study involving 89 participants, including patients with WD (n = 63 ...

ABSTRACT Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by multisystemic involvement. With the advent of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), patient survival has improved, revealing new long‐term complications. We report a case of a 4‐year‐old male with severe neurovisceral GD who developed protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE ...

Ceruloplasmin in monkey plasma.
An abnormally greenish tint appeared in the blood plasma of adult rhesus monkeys that had been daily administered an intramuscular injection of 1-methyl-2-(β-naphtyl)-aziridine or chlorpromazine. This greenish component in the monkey plasma could not be extracted with cyclohexane, 1, 2-dichloroethane or n-butyl alcohol, and the greenish tint was ...
