Objective Mutations in TARDBP (encoding TDP‐43) are associated with the neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and include familial missense mutations where there are a lack of models and mechanisms examining how they are pathogenic.

Objective Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a highly variable, multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK. Toxicity is exerted by repeat‐containing DMPK transcripts that sequester muscleblind‐like (MBNL) proteins and lead to deleterious yet predictable changes in alternative splicing.

Objective We aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and assess whether their combination improves diagnostic accuracy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 293 ALS patients, 85 neurodegenerative disease controls, and 29 healthy controls.

Biomarkers in spinal muscular atrophy
Spinal muscular atrophy is a hereditary disorder leading to severe neuromuscular impairment. With the introduction of disease-modifying therapies in recent years, the role of biomarkers has expanded from aiding diagnosis to monitoring treatment responses,

Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has a very specific neuroimaging signature, but the molecular underpinnings of the strikingly selective anatomic involvement have not elucidated to date. Accordingly, a large neuroimaging study was conducted with 258 participants to evaluate associations between patterns of neurodegeneration and focal ...

The Epidemiology of Primary Lateral Sclerosis: Results from a Population‐Based Cohort
Objective In this population‐based study, we described the epidemiology of primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) in northern Italy and compared the clinical characteristics of patients with PLS to those with predominant upper motor neuron (PUMN) involvement and classic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

PREGNANCY AND CHILDBIRTH IN A PATIENT WITH SPINAL MUSCULAR ATROPFY (CLINICAL CASE)
Spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) is a group of diseases inherited by an autosomal recessive type and characterized by degeneration of cells of the anterior horns of the spinal cord.

With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.
