Phosphatidylserine Ameliorates Neurodegenerative Symptoms and Enhances Axonal Transport in a Mouse Model of Familial Dysautonomia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Familial Dysautonomia (FD) is a neurodegenerative disease in which aberrant tissue-specific splicing of IKBKAP exon 20 leads to reduction of IKAP protein levels in neuronal tissues. Here we generated a conditional knockout (CKO) mouse in which exon 20 of

Sex Differences in Fall Frequency, Risk Factors, and Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Female sex is an independent fall risk factor in Parkinson's disease (PD), yet sex‐specific fall patterns remain unclear. Objectives To compare sex‐specific fall risk and outcomes across PD, prodromal alpha‐synucleinopathy (PAS), and healthy controls (HC); estimate fall frequency across PD progression; and assess how sex modifies ...

Phosphatidylserine improves axonal transport by inhibition of HDAC and has potential in treatment of neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2017
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare children neurodegenerative disease caused due to a point mutation in the IKBKAP gene that results in decreased IKK complex-associated protein (IKAP) protein production.

Living with the Unknown: Intolerance of Uncertainty in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is marked by pervasive uncertainty due to fluctuating motor and non‐motor symptoms, variable treatment response, and an unpredictable clinical course. Intolerance of uncertainty (IU), a tendency to perceive ambiguity as threatening and respond with worry, avoidance, or decisional paralysis, may be ...
