Meta-analysis of Gene Expression in Neurodegenerative Diseases Reveals Patterns in GABA Synthesis and Heat Stress Pathways [PDF]
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized as the progressive loss of neural cells, e.g. neurons, glial cells. Ageing, monogenic variations, viral infections, and many other factors are determined and speculated as causes for them. While many individual genes, such as APP for Alzheimer disease and HTT for Huntington disease, and biological pathways ...

Reduced Palmitoylation of SQSTM1/p62 in Huntington Disease Is Associated With Impaired Autophagy
Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1)/p62 is a receptor for autophagy required to deliver damaged organelles and aggregated proteins to the lysosome for degradation. SQSTM1 undergoes palmitoylation, the reversible addition of the saturated fatty acid palmitate to cysteines.

Targeting myelin lipid metabolism as a potential therapeutic strategy in a model of CMT1A neuropathy
Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease 1A (CMT1A) is a peripheral demyelinating disease. Here, the authors demonstrate in a rodent model of CMT1A that Schwann cells have impairments in lipid biosynthesis, and that restoring lipids via diet can reverse the ...

Fly model causes neurological rethink
A Drosophila model for a neurological disorder called type 2B Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease reveals that it has its origins in a partial loss of function, rather than a gain of function, which points to the need for a new therapeutic approach.

Snap and Diagnose: An Advanced Multimodal Retrieval System for Identifying Plant Diseases in the Wild [PDF]
Plant disease recognition is a critical task that ensures crop health and mitigates the damage caused by diseases. A handy tool that enables farmers to receive a diagnosis based on query pictures or the text description of suspicious plants is in high demand for initiating treatment before potential diseases spread further.
