Background and purpose Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are prescribed many medications for symptomatic relief. However, how potential alterations to the blood–brain barrier (BBB) affect the brain exposure of drugs in ALS remains under‐investigated. Experimental approach We used high‐dimensional proteomic analysis, cellular metabolism,

Dysbiosis and Therapeutic Modulation of the Gut Microbiota in Multiple Sclerosis: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a persistent autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. The etiology of MS is complex, involving a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Mounting evidence suggests that dysbiosis significantly impacts the progression of MS mainly through its direct effects upon the immune ...

4472 Plasma Neurofilament Light as a Biomarker for Pediatric Patients with Huntington’s Disease
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The goal of this study is to compare plasma neurofilament light (NfL) concentrations in asymptomatic children and young adults that carry the gene expansion (GE group) that causes Huntington’s Disease to similar subjects that do not ...

A Zebra in Horse's Clothing: Rethinking the Diagnosis of Rare Diseases
We analyze rare diseases with common presentations to reexamine genetic testing principles. In proposing criteria that emphasize patient capacity, test utility, and proportional invasiveness, we highlight gaps between guidelines and current practice. Coordinated, patient‐centered approaches are critical to maximize benefits, minimize harms, and inform ...

Regulation of hippocampal synaptic function by the metabolic hormone, leptin:Implications for health and neurodegenerative disease [PDF]
The role of the endocrine hormone leptin in controlling energy homeostasis in the hypothalamus are well documented. However the CNS targets for leptin are not restricted to the hypothalamus as a high density of leptin receptors are also expressed in ...
