Tracking Genetic Parkinson's Disease with Molecular Imaging: A Systematic Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a worldwide, complex neurodegenerative disorder influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Around 15–20% of PD cases are linked to genetic mutations, providing insights into the disease's pathogenesis.

MicroRNA screening identifies a link between NOVA1 expression and a low level of IKAP in familial dysautonomia

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare neurodegenerative disease caused by a mutation in intron 20 of the IKBKAP gene (c.2204+6T>C), leading to tissue-specific skipping of exon 20 and a decrease in the synthesis of the encoded protein IKAP (also known as ...

Effects of IKAP/hELP1 deficiency on gene expression in differentiating neuroblastoma cells: implications for familial dysautonomia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a developmental neuropathy of the sensory and autonomous nervous systems. The IKBKAP gene, encoding the IKAP/hELP1 subunit of the RNA polymerase II Elongator complex is mutated in FD patients, leading to a tissue-specific ...

Clinical presentation of Crohn's disease. Association between familial disease, smoking, disease phenotype, extraintestinal manifestations and need for surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background/Aims: Recent molecular data suggest that genetic factors may underlie the disease heterogeneity observed in Crohn's disease (CD). It was also suggested that familial inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a homogenous subgroup, phenotypically ...

Apathy in Parkinson's Disease: Distinguishing Overlapping Symptoms Via Network Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Anxiety, fatigue, and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) frequently co‐occur in Parkinson's disease (PD) and can influence the clinical determination of apathy. Objective To distinguish patient‐reported apathy from other non‐motor symptoms.

Proteasome inhibitors to alleviate aberrant IKBKAP mRNA splicing and low IKAP/hELP1 synthesis in familial dysautonomia

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2017
FD is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation of the IKBKAP gene, which induces low expression levels of the Elongator subunit IKAP/hELP1 protein.

Continuous Intrajejunal Levodopa–Carbidopa Infusion in Parkinson's Disease Associated with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: A Case Series

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a multisystem genetic disorder associated with a significantly increased risk of early‐onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD). Management is challenging because psychiatric and cognitive comorbidities often limit advanced therapies such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). Cases We report 2 patients with

Prionic diseases

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2013
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative illnesses due to the accumulation of small infectious pathogens containing protein but apparently lacking nucleic acid, which have long incubation periods and progress inexorably once clinical symptoms appear.

Cardiac-locked bursts of muscle sympathetic nerve activity are absent in familial dysautonomia

open access: yes, 2013
Familial dysautonomia (Riley–Day syndrome) is an hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy (HSAN type III), expressed at birth, that is associated with reduced pain and temperature sensibilities and absent baroreflexes, causing orthostatic hypotension ...
