Visual Recovery Reflects Cortical MeCP2 Sensitivity in Rett Syndrome

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Rett syndrome (RTT) is a devastating neurodevelopmental disorder with developmental regression affecting motor, sensory, and cognitive functions. Sensory disruptions contribute to the complex behavioral and cognitive difficulties and represent an important target for therapeutic interventions.

Metabolomic profiling unravels DNA adducts in human breast that are formed from peroxidase mediated activation of estrogens to quinone methides. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Currently there are three major hypotheses that have been proposed for estrogen induced carcinogenicity, however exact etiology remains unknown. Based on the chemical logic, studies were undertaken to investigate if estrogens could generate quinone ...

Sex Hormones Associate With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Risk and Survival

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) risk differs by sex and age, implicating sex hormones as potential modifiers. This study examined plasma levels of biologically active sex hormones and their association with ALS odds and survival in cases (females n = 131, males n = 189) and controls (females n = 138, males n = 150) from the University of ...

Reduction in Renal Relapse and Preservation of Long‐Term Kidney Function After Lupus Low Disease Activity in Patients With Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) is a validated treatment target in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but limited studies have explored the role of LLDAS in lupus nephritis (LN). This study aims to investigate the frequency and predictors of LLDAS attainment and its benefit on LN relapse and renal function preservation in patients ...

Prevalence, Determinants, and Outcomes of Low Disease Activity and Remission Attainment in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus That Is Clinically Active

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to identify in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with clinically active disease the attainment of frequency and determinants of Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS) and Definition of Remission in SLE (DORIS) and the frequency and determinants of flare and damage accrual after target attainment.
