An Autopsy Case With Fragile X-Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome Presenting Intranuclear Inclusion Bodies Mainly in the Limbic System. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a late onset and slow progression caused by a premutation (55–200 CGG repeat) in the fragile X mental retardation (FMR1) gene. Here, we report the case of a Japanese patient with FXTAS which is the first case autopsied in Japan. The patient was

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Tom20 in Choroid Plexus Epithelial Cells From Elderly Brains With Neurodegenerative Diseases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The choroid plexus (CP) contributes to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production and regulation of circadian rhythm. Recently, many neuroimaging studies have reported enlarged CP volumes in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD).

IgE to cyclophilin Bet v 7 triggers mast cell activation and mediates cross-reactivity with Ara h 18 in children with seasonal allergic rhinitis. [PDF]
Abstract Background Panallergens are ubiquitously expressed molecules that may drive IgE sensitization across diverse allergen sources, thereby shaping complex clinical phenotypes such as asthma and pollen–food allergy syndrome (PFAS). Although several panallergen families have been extensively characterized, unexplained sensitization patterns are ...

Simple screening models for cognitive impairment in community settings: The IRIDE Cohort Study. [PDF]
Aim Community settings often need simple screening, rather than detailed tests, to identify cognitive impairment. This study aimed to develop models to screen older adults with cognitive impairment. Methods This study used data from the Integrated Research Initiative for Living Well with Dementia Cohort Study and included 5830 older adults. Individuals

Morphometry of choroid plexus epithelial cells in neurodegenerative diseases. [PDF]
The choroid plexus not only secretes the majority of cerebrospinal fluid but also controls the circadian rhythm, which can be impaired in the presence of neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, many studies have reported the contribution of choroid plexus abnormalities to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease ...

Mosaic variants of neurodevelopmental and mitochondrial genes in postmortem paraventricular thalamus in bipolar disorder detected by deep exome sequencing. [PDF]
Aim The genetic architecture of bipolar disorder (BD) remains incompletely understood despite extensive genomic studies. Postzygotic mosaic variants have emerged as promising contributors to BD; however, the landscape of such variants in the BD brain has yet to be elucidated.

Varietal identification in pasta through an SSR‐based approach: a case study
Abstract BACKGROUND Pasta is a worldwide popular Italian food made exclusively of durum wheat. The choice of variety to be used to produce pasta is at the discretion of the producer based on the peculiar characteristics of each cultivar. The availability of analytical approaches for the tracking of specific varieties along the productive chain is ...
