Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Configuration of Circle of Willis and Its Clinical Significance

Journal of Bahria University Medical and Dental College, 2018
In occlusive vascular brain diseases, the structure of the circle of Willis is of immense importance. A high percentage of variations have been reported in the arteries forming circle of Willis. These have profound clinical implications.

Molecular Editing Reveals a Bilobalide Chemotype that Attenuates Prolyl Endopeptidase (PREP)‐Linked Neuroinflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecular editing of bilobalide uncovers BB56, a PREP‐engaging chemotype with enhanced anti‐inflammatory activity in microglia. Integrated CETSA‐MS, SAR, and pathway analyses link BB56 to attenuation of p38 MAPK/NF‐κB and NLRP3‐associated inflammatory signaling, highlighting bilobalide editing as a strategy for developing neuroinflammation‐modulating ...

Assessment of malformations, variations and diameters of vessels forming the circle of Willis – An autopsy study in a non-cerebrovascular cohort

Translational Neuroscience, 2022
The collateral capacity of the circle of Willis (CoW) may play an important role in the development of ischemic strokes. The occurrence of classical polygon shows wide geographical variations and morphological data on diameters of the Willisian ...

Visualizing a Li‐Depleted Amorphous Cathode–Electrolyte Interphase in Sulfide Solid‐State Batteries Using In Situ Cryogenic Electron Microscopy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In situ cryogenic STEM‐EELS and electron diffraction directly visualize Li depletion and structural degradation at the NCM523/Li6PS5Cl interface during charging. The results reveal a Li‐depleted amorphous interphase that impedes Li transport, while LiNbOy coating suppresses interfacial degradation and preserves the solid‐electrolyte structure ...

WTAP affects intracranial aneurysm progression by regulating m6A methylation modification

Open Medicine, 2023
Intracranial aneurysm (IA) is a type of cerebrovascular disease that mainly occurs in the circle of Willis. Abnormalities in RNA methylation at the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) site have been associated with numerous types of human diseases.

First Report of Uniparental Isodisomy of Chromosome 15 Revealing Angelman Syndrome and Microphthalmia Associated With a Novel Homozygous ALDH1A3 Variant

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paternal isodisomy of chromosome 15 (iUPD15) is a recognized cause of Angelman syndrome (AS), accounting for approximately 2%–5% of cases. Additionally, another recognized consequence of iUPD is the unmasking of autosomal recessive disorders. However, reports of recessive disorders resulting from iUPD15 remain scarce in the literature.
