Cell cultures of human ciliary muscle: growth, ultrastructural and immunocytochemical characteristics [PDF]
Primary ciliary muscle cell cultures derived from human donors (16-91 years) were established and characterized by comparing them with ciliary muscle in tissue sections using immunocytochemical and ultrastructural methods.

Homologous membrane wrapped ZIF‐8 nanoparticles were proposed to improve biocompatibility and targeting ability to neural stem cells (NSCs). ZIF‐8‐SCM NPs exhibit pH responsiveness, thereby generating an intracellular Zn2+ storm to accelerate neural differentiation through calcium and MAPK signaling pathways. Moreover, they promote function recovery in

Type-1 spinal muscular atrophy cohort before and after disease-modifying therapies
Background Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA-5q) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive muscle atrophy, hypotonia, and weakness, with SMA 1 presenting symptoms within the first 6 months of life. Disease-modifying therapies have

Muscular Dystrophy-Dystroglycanopathy and Epilepsy
Investigators from the University of Catania, and other centers in Europe have identified a novel genetic glycosylation disorder, DPM2-CDG (part of the DPM synthase complex) in 3 infants with severe hypotonia, progressive muscle weakness and wasting ...

Chiari I Malformation: Review and Update of Current Treatment Options
ABSTRACT The pathophysiology of Chiari malformation type I (CM‐I) is complex, involving structural abnormalities at the craniovertebral junction that result in herniation of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. In this study, we aim to present and evaluate current treatment options for CM‐I, with a focus on evidence‐based clinical ...

This chapter outlines a practical approach to the diagnosis and management of common human genetic conditions in patients who present with hypotonia. Hypotonia is an abnormal decrease in the muscle’s resistance to a rapid velocity stretch, and hypertonia

Opsoclonus in Pediatric Patients: Differential Diagnosis and a Practical Approach to Evaluation
ABSTRACT Opsoclonus is an ocular dyskinesia characterized by involuntary, arrhythmic, multidirectional saccades. In pediatrics, opsoclonus is most commonly attributed to the rare neuroinflammatory disorder opsoclonus‐myoclonus‐ataxia syndrome (OMAS), typically considered a paraneoplastic syndrome associated with neural crest tumors. However, opsoclonus

The cerebellum, a lateralised organ, plays a crucial role in motor control. Still, its involvement in hand and foot dominance remains inadequately understood, primarily in the right and left-side dominant population.

The value of elecromyography in the aetiological diagnosis of hypotonia in infants and toddlers [PDF]
IntroductionDuring the first two years of life, hypotonia may be the only symptom of a central or peripheral nervous system disorder. We propose to assess the sensitivity of electroneuromyography (ENMG) in the aetiological diagnosis of hypotonia of ...

Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.
