Facilitatory actions of guanidine on synaptic transmission in mammalian brain slices [PDF]

, 1979
Guanidine administration may be beneficial in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and related diseases; however, the actions of guanidine on the mammalian central nervous system have not been investigated.

Establishment of a humanized SCA2 mouse model carrying a CAA disruption preventing CAG repeat expansion in pathogenic genes

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we established a mouse model in which CAG repeats do not undergo microsatellite instability (MSI) across generations. A humanized ATXN2 cDNA with four CAA interruptions within 73 CAG expansions was inserted into the Rosa26 locus of C57BL/6J mice. At the same time, a 23 CAG control mouse model was also generated.

Polyglutamine-expanded androgen receptor interferes with TFEB to elicit autophagy defects in SBMA. [PDF]

, 2014
Macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy) is a key pathway in neurodegeneration. Despite protective actions, autophagy may contribute to neuron demise when dysregulated.

Research advances in dysphagia animal models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the establishment, evaluation, and detection of dysphagia animal models in stroke, Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in three kinds of experimental animals (including rodents, nonhuman primates, and other mammals), providing a basis for the selection of appropriate animal models of ...

Cortical Excitability as a Prognostic and Phenotypic Stratification Biomarker in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Despite its clinical heterogeneity, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is unified by early and prominent alterations in cortical excitability, increasingly recognized as contributors to disease progression. This study assessed whether the ratio between motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude, reflecting upper motor neuron integrity, and compound ...

Biallelic Variants in the DARS2 Gene as a Novel Cause of Axonal Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) disease is a heterogeneous group of genetic neuropathies, with >90 genes identified. Several aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases have been linked to CMT. DARS2, encoding the mitochondrial aspartyl‐tRNA synthetase, has been typically associated with leukoencephalopathy with brainstem and spinal cord involvement and lactate ...

Infantile and early childhood onset of mitochondrial myopathy due to mutations in the TK2 gene with a phenotype of spinal muscular atrophy 5q: the first cases in Russia

Нервно-мышечные болезни, 2019
Introduction. Mitochondrial myopathy with thymidine kinase 2 deficiency and spinal muscular atrophy 5q (SMA-5q) are two potentially curable hereditary diseases with different levels of damage to the neuromuscular system and etiology.
