The development of nations conditions the disease space [PDF]
Using the economic complexity methodology on data for disease prevalence in 195 countries during the period of 1990-2016, we propose two new metrics for quantifying the relatedness between diseases, or the `disease space' of countries. With these metrics, we analyze the geography of diseases and empirically investigate the effect of economic ...

Biogenesis and reformation of synaptic vesicles
Abstract figure legend Synaptic vesicle proteins are axonally transported in precursor vesicles (PVs) before conversion into mature synaptic vesicles (SVs) that are reformed by local recycling at synapses. Abstract Communication within the nervous system relies on the calcium‐triggered release of neurotransmitter molecules by exocytosis of synaptic ...

Expression of mitofusin 2(R94Q) in a transgenic mouse leads to Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy type 2A. [PDF]
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A is an autosomal dominant axonal form of peripheral neuropathy caused by mutations in the mitofusin 2 gene. Mitofusin 2 encodes a mitochondrial outer membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion in ...
