Pathway Analyses of Inherited Neuropathies Identify Putative Common Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration
ABSTRACT Objective Inherited neuropathies (IN) are associated with over 100 different genetic mutations presenting with a variety of phenotypes. This complexity suggests multiple pathways may converge onto a limited number of downstream pathways to effect axonal injury.

Neurodevelopmental Implications Underpinning Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of rare genetic neurodegenerative disorders. This review comprehensively outlines the clinical manifestations, gene expression trajectories, and protein function of HSP subtypes from the perspective of neurodevelopment.

Human genetic defects of sphingolipid synthesis
Abstract Sphingolipids are ubiquitous lipids, present in the membranes of all cell types, the stratum corneum and the circulating lipoproteins. Autosomal recessive as well as dominant diseases due to disturbed sphingolipid biosynthesis have been identified, including defects in the synthesis of ceramides, sphingomyelins and glycosphingolipids.

Unifying biology of neurodegeneration in lysosomal storage diseases
Abstract There are currently at least 70 characterised lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) resultant from inherited single‐gene defects. Of these, at least 30 present with central nervous system (CNS) neurodegeneration and overlapping aetiology. Substrate accumulation and dysfunctional neuronal lysosomes are common denominator, but how variants in 30 ...

RYR 1 Gene Mutation in Motor Neuron Disease: A 10‐Year Case Observation
Motor neuron diseases (MND) are a group of rare, often severe, and life‐limiting progressive neurological disorders that primarily affect motor neurons, resulting in muscle weakness and loss of essential muscle functions. Genetic defects play a significant role in MND, contributing to their pathogenesis and progression.

Aiming at tackling neurodegenerative diseases, the potential effect of β‐glucosyl sterol on neuronal cells is investigated by means of fluorescent labelling of a synthetic derivative. Marked differences in neuron accumulation, metabolism, and impact on the lysosomes with respect to the un‐glycosylated cholesterol derivative were observed.

Sinbaglustat is a brain-penetrating small molecule that inhibits the non-lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GBA2) and, with lower potency, glucosylceramide synthase (GCS). Sinbaglustat has passed clinical phase I.

Variations in rumen microbiota and host genome impacted feed efficiency in goat breeds
IntroductionImproving feed efficiency (FE) is a significant goal in animal breeding programs. Variations in FE and its relationship with rumen microbiota remain poorly understood across different goat breeds.MethodsThis study assessed the influence of ...

The role of GBA2 in controlling locomotor activity
Glycosphingolipide sind Hauptbestandteile zellulärer Membranen und erfüllen sowohl strukturelle als auch funktionelle Aufgaben. Modifizierungen des einfachen Glycosphingolipids Glucosylceramid (GlcCer) bringen zahlreiche komplexe glycosylierte und sialylierte Glycosphingolipide hervor, die besonders im zentralen Nervensystem (ZNS) vorkommen.
