Tremor in motor neuron disease may be central rather than peripheral in origin [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Motor neuron disease (MND) refers to a spectrum of degenerative diseases affecting motor neurons. Recent clinical and post-mortem observations have revealed considerable variability in the phenotype.

Targeting eRNA‐Producing Super‐Enhancers Regulates TNFα Expression and Mitigates Chronic Inflammation in Mice and Patient‐Derived Immune Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Targeting eRNAs from TNFα‐associated super‐enhancers with ASOs effectively reduces TNFα expression and inflammatory responses in both mouse models and patient‐derived immune cells. The conserved nature of these regulatory regions between species highlights the potential of eRNA‐targeted approaches as a therapeutic strategy for chronic inflammatory ...

Analyses of GWAS and Sub‐Threshold Loci Lead to the Discovery of Dendrite Development and Morphology Dysfunction Underlying Schizophrenia Genetic Risk

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cost‐effective strategy is developed analyzing sub‐threshold GWAS loci (5 × 10−8 < P ≤ 10−6), identifying 180 risk loci and 304 high‐confidence genes through combined GWAS/subGWAS analysis. This approach reveals dendrite development and morphogenesis (DDM) as a novel SCZ pathway.

Cellular bases of the RNA metabolism dysfunction in motor neurons of a murine model of spinal muscular atrophy: Role of Cajal bodies and the nucleolus [PDF]

, 2017
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by a homozygous deletion or mutation in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene that leads to reduced levels of SMN protein resulting in degeneration of motor neurons (MNs).
