dP/dtmax: An underestimated prognostic factor in large animal infarction model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 171-178, January 2025.
Hemodynamic measurements improve the quality and certainty of the data obtained Abstract The present study aims to establish a reproducible large animal experimental unit using a minipig model to monitor cardiac function changes. A 90‐min closed‐chest balloon occlusion of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery was used to induce ...

Insights into RNA‐mediated pathology in new mouse models of Huntington's disease

The FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 23, 15 December 2024.
The behavioral and molecular characterization was performed for Huntington's disease mouse models expressing a fragment of the human HTT gene, with mutation of ~100 CAG repeats, in the nontranslated version (HD/100CAG) and the translated version (HD/100Q). Abstract Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative polyglutamine (polyQ) disease resulting

Investigations of an individual with a Marfanoid habitus, mild intellectual disability, and severe social anxiety identifies PCDHGA5 as a candidate neurodevelopmental disorder gene

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, Volume 196, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract Marfanoid habitus and intellectual disability (MHID) co‐occur in multiple neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). Among those, Lujan‐Fryns, an X‐linked genetic disorder associated with variants in MED12 was the first such syndrome identified. Accurate molecular diagnosis for these MHID syndromes remains a challenge due to significant clinical and ...

Tetrabenazine, a vesicular monoamine transporter 2 inhibitor, inhibits vesicular storage capacity and release of monoamine transmitters in mouse brain tissue

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 181, Issue 24, Page 5094-5109, December 2024.
Abstract Background and Purpose Tetrabenazine (TBZ), used for treating hyperkinetic disorders, inhibits vesicular monoamine transporter‐2 (VMAT‐2), which sequesters monoamines into vesicles for exocytosis. However, our knowledge of the effect of TBZ on monoaminergic transmission is limited. Herein, we provide neurochemical evidence regarding the effect
