Congenital muscular dystrophy: from muscle to brain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Congenital muscular dystrophies (CMDs) are a wide group of muscular disorders that manifest with very early onset of muscular weakness, sometime associated to severe brain involvement.The histologic pattern of muscle anomalies is typical of dystrophic ...

Dictyostelium discoideum: A Model System for Neurological Disorders

open access: yesCells, 2022
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

Degree of Cajal-Retzius cell mislocalisation correlates with the severity of structural brain defects in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The secondary dystroglycanopathies are characterized by the hypoglycosylation of alpha dystroglycan, and are associated with mutations in at least 18 genes that act on the glycosylation of this cell surface receptor rather than the Dag1 gene itself.

Responsible Genes for Neuronal Migration in the Chromosome 17p13.3: Beyond Pafah1b1(Lis1), Crk and Ywhae(14-3-3ε)

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
The 17p13.3 chromosome region is often deleted or duplicated in humans, resulting in severe neurodevelopmental disorders such as Miller–Dieker syndrome (MDS) and 17p13.3 duplication syndrome.

MAPping out distribution routes for kinesin couriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the crowded environment of eukaryotic cells, diffusion is an inefficient distribution mechanism for cellular components. Long-distance active transport is required and is performed by molecular motors including kinesins.

Infantile spasms and developmental delay: A case of miller–Dieker syndrome

open access: yesIndian Pediatrics Case Reports, 2023
Background: Miller–Dieker syndrome (MDS) is a rare genetic disorder, due to contiguous gene deletion on chromosome 17p13.3, characterized by classical type I lissencephaly, severe developmental delay, seizures, cardiac defects, and dysmorphisms.

Transgenic Rescue of the LARGEmyd Mouse: A LARGE Therapeutic Window? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...
