ABSTRACT Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare heme biosynthesis disorder in which the accumulation of neurotoxic porphyrin precursors precipitates neurovisceral attacks. Intercurrent infections, including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), may trigger or exacerbate AIP and complicate diagnosis, as clinical manifestations can resemble those of

Mutation in RNF170 Causes Unsteady Gait with Hypertrophic Olivary Degeneration
ABSTRACT Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a rare form of transsynaptic degeneration resulting from disruption of the Guillain–Mollaret triangle, typically presenting with palatal tremor, ataxia, and nystagmus. Mutations in the Ring Finger Protein 170 (RNF170) gene have been associated with autosomal dominant sensory ataxia.

ZSWIM8, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that broadly targets IDR‐rich proteins, drives MiR‐7‐dependent AGO2 degradation and the turnover of many RBPs. Loss of ZSWIM8 leads to MiR‐7 accumulation in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and myelination defects in the developing brain. ABSTRACT Proteostasis of proteins with intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) is of

Inflammatory Mediators Both Directly and Indirectly Promote Microglial Proliferation
– CSF2, IL3, and TNFɑ directly promote microglial proliferation. – Neuron‐secreted factors suppress microglial proliferation. – IL1 cytokines promote CSF2 release from astrocytes, which promotes microglial proliferation. ABSTRACT Microglia—the predominant immune cell of the central nervous system (CNS)—possess an astounding capacity for proliferation ...
