Exenatide Once Weekly in the Treatment of Patients with Multiple System Atrophy
Objective Exenatide, a glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist, has neuroprotective effects in preclinical models of multiple system atrophy (MSA). We investigated these effects in a proof‐of‐concept clinical trial. Methods In this single‐center, randomized, open label trial, participants with MSA were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive ...

Objective Tofersen is the first effective and approved therapy for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)‐associated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS [SOD1‐ALS]). Following treatment with tofersen, neurofilament levels in patients' cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum seem to respond earlier than clinical parameters.

Biallelic Variants in the DARS2 Gene as a Novel Cause of Axonal Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease
Objective Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) disease is a heterogeneous group of genetic neuropathies, with >90 genes identified. Several aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases have been linked to CMT. DARS2, encoding the mitochondrial aspartyl‐tRNA synthetase, has been typically associated with leukoencephalopathy with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and lactate ...

Cationic Nanoparticles Mitigate Chemotherapy‐Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), caused by chemodrugs like paclitaxel (PTX), leads to severe neuropathic pain. This study evaluates PTX‐loaded PAMAM‐Chol nanoparticles (PTX‐NPs) to alleviate CIPN. PTX‐NPs achieve 99% drug‐loading efficiency, reduce neurotoxicity, and in murine models, decrease cold allodynia by 85% while restoring ...
