Gait Assessment Using Three-Dimensional Acceleration of the Trunk in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Background: The subjective evaluation of pathological gait exhibits a low inter-rater reliability. Therefore, we developed a three-dimensional acceleration of the trunk during walking to assess the pathological gait quantitatively.Methods: We evaluated ...

Choroid plexus epithelium and its role in neurological diseases

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Choroid plexus epithelial cells can secrete cerebrospinal fluid into the ventricles, serving as the major structural basis of the selective barrier between the neurological system and blood in the brain.

Adherent junctions: Physiology, role in hydrocephalus and potential therapeutic targets [PDF]

IBRO Neuroscience Reports
In all epithelial cells, the adherent junctions (AJs) with cadherin as the core play an important role in the maintenance of the connection and the formation of apical-basal polarity. The ependymal cells close to the ventricular system rely on AJs with N-

The molecular genetics of RASopathies: An update on novel disease genes and new disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, Volume 190, Issue 4, Page 425-439, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Enhanced signaling through RAS and the mitogen‐associated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade underlies the RASopathies, a family of clinically related disorders affecting development and growth. In RASopathies, increased RAS‐MAPK signaling can result from the upregulated activity of various RAS GTPases, enhanced function of proteins positively ...
