In utero electroporation induces cell death and alters embryonic microglia morphology and expression signatures in the developing hypothalamus

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Since its inception in 2001, in utero electroporation (IUE) has been widely used by the neuroscience community. IUE is a technique developed to introduce plasmid DNA into embryonic mouse brains without permanently removing the embryos from the

Toxicity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in the developing male Wistar(Han) rat II: chronic dosing causes developmental delay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We have investigated whether fetal exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) causes defects in the male reproductive system of the rat, using chronically exposed rats to ensure continuous exposure of the fetus. 5-6 week old rats were exposed

Variant Update on ASCC1: Characterization of the First Homozygous Missense Variant Involved in Prenatal‐Onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy With Congenital Bone Fractures 2

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spinal muscular atrophy with congenital bone fractures 2 is a rare and severe autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ASCC1. This condition characterized by prenatal onset of severe hypotonia with fetal hypokinesia and congenital contractures results in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, and increased ...

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.

Non‐Synaptic Function and Localization of Syntaxin‐Binding Protein 1 in a Mouse Model of STXBP1‐Related Epileptic Encephalopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective De novo mutations in the syntaxin‐binding protein 1 (STXBP1), encoded by STXBP1, are among the most prevalent causes of variable neurodevelopmental disorders, including epileptic encephalopathy, developmental delay, and movement disorders.

Distal femoral morphology as a risk factor for osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability affecting millions of adults in the United States, commonly resulting in the need for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to restore mobility and quality of life. This study investigates potential differences in baseline distal femoral shape between individuals who received TKA due to OA and a ...
