Early events in the evolution of the Silene latifolia Y chromosome: Male specialization and recombination arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Understanding the origin and evolution of sex chromosomes requires studying recently evolved X-Y chromosome systems such as those in some flowering plants.

Neurologic Manifestations of Long COVID Affect Adult Females More Severely Than Males

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize differences in neurologic manifestations of postacute sequelae of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection (Neuro‐PASC) between females and males. Methods Cross‐sectional study of the first consecutive 261 posthospitalization Neuro‐PASC (PNP) and 2068 nonhospitalized Neuro‐PASC (NNP) patients evaluated at the Neuro‐COVID clinic between ...

Augmenting and Assaying Nav1.1 Protein Quantity for Dravet Syndrome Therapy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy predominantly caused by heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in SCN1A, which encodes Nav1.1. Conserved upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in SCN1A were validated to regulate translation in reporter assays, demonstrating the therapeutic viability of increasing Nav1.1 from ...

Sex: A Significant Risk Factor for Neurodevelopmental and Neurodegenerative Disorders

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2018
Males and females sometimes significantly differ in their propensity to develop neurological disorders. Females suffer more from mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, whereas males are more susceptible to deficits in the dopamine system ...

Nationwide Survey of Association Between Fever and Epileptic Seizure in CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder Revealed Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is a rare, severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. There is a pressing need to develop effective and sustainable therapeutic strategies. We aimed to investigate the causal association between febrile episodes and epileptic seizures for therapeutic implications in CDD patients.

Reverse painting highlights the origin of chromosome aberrations

open access: yes, 2004
Reverse chromosome painting, as the opposite of forward chromosome painting, means that an abnormal chromosome of interest is recovered by flow sorting or by chromosome microdissection, amplified and labelled by DOP-PCR and hybridized onto normal ...

Clinical Impact of MGMT Promoter Methylation in IDH‐Mutant Gliomas: Influence of Threshold Selection and Clinical Confounding

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The clinical relevance of MGMT promoter methylation in IDH‐mutant gliomas remains controversial in the era of molecular classification. We aimed to systematically evaluate its clinical relevance by integrating quantitative assessment, cutoff exploration, and adjustment for clinical confounding.

Autoimmune Comorbidities as Modifiers of Phenotypic Heterogeneity in Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1) shows clinical heterogeneity that is only partly explained by D4Z4 repeat unit (RU) size. Although immune and inflammatory mechanisms may contribute to disease variability, the prevalence and clinical impact of autoimmune diseases in FSHD remain unclear.

Chromosome 15 structural abnormalities: effect on IGF1R gene expression and function

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2017
Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R), mapping on the 15q26.3 chromosome, is required for normal embryonic and postnatal growth. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the IGF1R gene expression and function in three unrelated patients with ...

Genetic association of CDC2 with cerebrospinal fluid tau in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have recently reported that a polymorphism in the cell division cycle (CDC2) gene, designated Ex6 + 7I/D, is associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The CDC2 gene is located on chromosome 10q21.1 close to the marker D10S1225 linked to AD.
