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.

Protocol for Reconstituting Adaptor‐Mediated Activation of Full‐Length Kinesin‐1

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kinesin‐1 is a member of the kinesin superfamily that plays an essential role in intracellular cargo transport. In the absence of cargo, Kinesin‐1 exhibits low motor activity due to autoinhibition. Multiple studies have demonstrated that adaptor proteins, which link cargos to Kinesin‐1, can activate Kinesin‐1 by releasing the autoinhibition ...

Proteomic profiling of Elp1‐deficient trigeminal ganglia reveals disruption of neurotrophic and metabolic pathways in a familial dysautonomia mouse model

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Elp1, a subunit of the Elongator complex, is essential for tRNA modification and neuronal development. Mutations in ELP1 underlie familial dysautonomia (FD), a disorder marked by sensory and autonomic neuropathy. While loss of Elp1 disrupts trigeminal ganglion formation and survival, the downstream molecular consequences remain ...

From in vivo models to in vitro bioengineered neuromuscular junctions for the study of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease

Journal of Tissue Engineering
Peripheral neuropathies are disorders affecting the peripheral nervous system. Among them, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is an inherited sensorimotor neuropathy for which no effective treatment exists yet.

Multiparametric Quantitative MRI of Peripheral Nerves to Differentiate Demyelinating From Axonal Polyneuropathies

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Differentiating demyelinating from axonal polyneuropathies helps for accurate diagnosis and treatment. However, the current clinical tools lack sensitivity to confirm demyelination in peripheral nerves, particularly for proximal nerves.

Connexin32 and X-linked Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 1997
Mutations in the gap junction geneconnexin32(Cx32) cause the X-linked form of Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease, an inherited demyelinating neuropathy. More than 130 different mutations have been described, affecting all portions of the Cx32 protein.
