A shared mechanism of muscle wasting in cancer and Huntington's disease. [PDF]

, 2015
Skeletal muscle loss and dysfunction in aging and chronic diseases is one of the major causes of mortality in patients, and is relevant for a wide variety of diseases such as neurodegeneration and cancer.

Emerging Links Between Ferroptosis and Neurodegeneration: Implications for Disease Mechanisms and Nutraceutical Interventions

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2025.
Ferroptosis, a controlled cell death, is driven by iron and characterized by reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation. The impact of lipid peroxides, GSH/GPX4, and iron metabolism–targeting small molecule inhibitors is discussed. Nucleic acids, proteins, and phytochemicals are implicated as inhibitors of ferroptosis.

Interpretative phenomenological analysis and genetic counseling

Journal of Genetic Counseling, Volume 34, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract The role of qualitative methods in healthcare research has gained acceptance over the last 30 years, and there are now a number of well‐established approaches available offering a diversity of aims, procedures, and epistemological emphases. This paper focuses on one such approach, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), to provide a ...

Mitochondrial dynamics–fusion, fission, movement, and mitophagy–in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

, 2009
Neurons are metabolically active cells with high energy demands at locations distant from the cell body. As a result, these cells are particularly dependent on mitochondrial function, as reflected by the observation that diseases of mitochondrial ...

The Nasal–Brain Drug Delivery Route: Mechanisms and Applications to Central Nervous System Diseases

MedComm, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2025.
Τhe BBB restricts CNS drug delivery. NBDD bypasses the BBB via olfactory/trigeminal routes, enabling CNS delivery of therapeutic (small molecules, biologics, nucleic acids) for neurodegenerative/psychiatric disorders and brain tumors using advanced NBDD delivery systems (e.g nanocarriers) to enhance targeting and bioavailability.

nNOS(+) striatal neurons, a subpopulation spared in Huntington's Disease, possess functional NMDA receptors but fail to generate mitochondrial ROS in response to an excitotoxic challenge. [PDF]

, 2013
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by severe neuronal loss in the cortex and striatum that leads to motor and behavioral deficits.

Polyglutamine expansion induced dynamic misfolding of androgen receptor

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is caused by a polyglutamine expansion (pQe) in the N‐terminal transactivation domain of the human androgen receptor (AR‐NTD), resulting in a combination of toxic gain‐ and loss‐of‐function mechanisms. The structural basis of these processes has not been resolved due to the disordered nature of the NTD ...

Evaluating the Potential of COL8A1 as a Therapeutic Target for Chemoresistance, Disease Progression, and a Prognostic Marker in Gastric Cancer

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 11, June 2025.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to identify key genes associated with post‐chemotherapy recurrence in gastric cancer patients. Gene expression data from multiple cohorts were analysed to determine differentially expressed genes between recurrent and non‐recurrent cases. A prognostic risk model incorporating COL8A1, HSPB7 and SLIT2 was developed and validated

Oxidative stress parameters in plasma of Huntington's disease patients, asymptomatic Huntington's disease gene carriers and healthy subjects : a cross-sectional study [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND : Animal data and postmortem studies suggest a role of oxidative stress in the Huntington's disease (HD), but in vivo human studies have been scarce.
