Highly purified cannabidiol (CBD) in CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD): Open‐label prospective study

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is an early‐onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy characterized by frequent drug‐resistant seizures, cerebral visual impairment, motor dysfunction, and sleep and gastrointestinal disturbances.

Mecp2 fine-tunes quiescence exit by targeting nuclear receptors

open access: yeseLife
Quiescence (G0) maintenance and exit are crucial for tissue homeostasis and regeneration in mammals. Here, we show that methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (Mecp2) expression is cell cycle-dependent and negatively regulates quiescence exit in cultured cells and

MeCP2 is required for global heterochromatic and nucleolar changes during activity-dependent neuronal maturation

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2011
Mutations in MECP2, encoding methyl CpG binding protein 2, cause the neurodevelopmental disorder Rett syndrome. MeCP2 is an abundant nuclear protein that binds to chromatin and modulates transcription in response to neuronal activity.

MECP2 germline mosaicism plays an important part in the inheritance of Rett syndrome: a study of MECP2 germline mosaicism in males

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2023
Background Germline mosaicisms could be inherited to offspring, which considered as “de novo” in most cases. Paternal germline MECP2 mosaicism has been reported in fathers of girls with Rett syndrome (RTT) previously.

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

Non‐Histone Lactylation: A New Frontier in Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reperfusion therapy is the mainstay of treatment for ischemic stroke (IS) but frequently exacerbates secondary injury. Following cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, lactate accumulates markedly. Traditionally regarded as a metabolic byproduct, lactate has gained new significance with the discovery of protein lactylation. In addition to experimental

Loss of MeCP2 function is associated with distinct gene expression changes in the striatum

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2013
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by developmental regression beginning 6–18 months after birth, followed by a lifetime of intellectual disability, stereotyped behaviors, and motor deficits.

Defending the genome from the enemy within:mechanisms of retrotransposon suppression in the mouse germline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The viability of any species requires that the genome is kept stable as it is transmitted from generation to generation by the germ cells. One of the challenges to transgenerational genome stability is the potential mutagenic activity of transposable ...

Epigenetic mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in chronic pain‐associated neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

Oxidative brain damage in Mecp2-mutant murine models of Rett syndrome

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder affecting almost exclusively females, caused in the overwhelming majority of the cases by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2).
