Molecular and Genetic Determinants of Glioma Cell Invasion. [PDF]
A diffusely invasive nature is a major obstacle in treating a malignant brain tumor, "diffuse glioma", which prevents neurooncologists from surgically removing the tumor cells even in combination with chemotherapy and radiation.

Labyrinthine Turing Pattern Formation in the Cerebral Cortex [PDF]
I propose that the labyrinthine patterns of the cortices of mammalian brains may be formed by a Turing instability of interacting axonal guidance species acting together with the mechanical strain imposed by the interconnecting axons.Comment: See home ...

A developmental and genetic classification for malformations of cortical development: update 2012. [PDF]
Malformations of cerebral cortical development include a wide range of developmental disorders that are common causes of neurodevelopmental delay and epilepsy. In addition, study of these disorders contributes greatly to the understanding of normal brain

Perampanel in lissencephaly-associated epilepsy
We retrospectively investigated whether perampanel (PER) could serve as an alternative for treating drug-resistant seizures in lissencephaly. We investigated the following data: age at onset of epilepsy, age at start of PER, etiology, brain MRI findings,

A de novo microdeletion involving PAFAH1B (LIS1) related to lissencephaly phenotype
Lissencephaly is a type of the congenital malformation of the brain. Due to the impairments of neuronal migration, patients show absence of brain convolution manifesting smooth brain surfaces.

Dictyostelium discoideum: A Model System for Neurological Disorders
Background: The incidence of neurological disorders is increasing due to population growth and extended life expectancy. Despite advances in the understanding of these disorders, curative strategies for treatment have not yet eventuated. In part, this is

Dandy-Walker malformation: is the "tail sign" the key sign? [PDF]
OBJECTIVE.To demonstrate the value of the "tail sign" in the assessment of Dandy-Walker Malformation (DWM). METHODS: A total of 31fetal MRI, performed before 24 weeks of gestation after second-line US examination between May 2013 and September 2014 ...

Transgenic Rescue of the LARGEmyd Mouse: A LARGE Therapeutic Window? [PDF]
LARGE is a glycosyltransferase involved in glycosylation of α-dystroglycan (α-DG). Absence of this protein in the LARGEmyd mouse results in α-DG hypoglycosylation, and is associated with central nervous system abnormalities and progressive muscular ...
