Intramuscular Hemangioma: A Rare Cause of Omalgia [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia, 2023
Intramuscular hemangiomas (IHs) are benign soft-tissue tumors that represent less than 1% of all hemangiomas. This clinical entity is rarely considered as a differential diagnosis in cases of musculoskeletal pain. A healthy 38-year-old woman presented to

Antioxidant Response in Human X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy Fibroblasts

Antioxidants, 2022
Redox imbalance, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation play a major role in the pathophysiology of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), an inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by mutations in the ABCD1 gene, encoding the protein responsible

New Trends and Most Promising Therapeutic Strategies for Epilepsy Treatment

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Despite the wide availability of novel anti-seizure medications (ASMs), 30% of patients with epilepsy retain persistent seizures with a significant burden in comorbidity and an increased risk of premature death.

Impact and management of drooling in children with neurological disorders: an Italian Delphi consensus

Italian Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background The rate of chronic drooling in children older than 4 years is 0.5%, but it rises to 60% in those with neurological disorders. Physical and psychosocial consequences lead to a reduction in the quality of Life (QoL) of affected patients ...

Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 Activation Might Mitigate Clinical Symptoms in Friedreich’s Ataxia: Clues of an “Out-Brain Origin” of the Disease From a Family Study

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is the most frequent autosomal recessive ataxia in western countries, with a mean age of onset at 10–15 years. Patients manifest progressive cerebellar and sensory ataxia, dysarthria, lower limb pyramidal weakness, and other ...

Oxidative Stress in DNA Repeat Expansion Disorders: A Focus on NRF2 Signaling Involvement

Biomolecules, 2020
DNA repeat expansion disorders are a group of neuromuscular and neurodegenerative diseases that arise from the inheritance of long tracts of nucleotide repetitions, located in the regulatory region, introns, or inside the coding sequence of a gene ...

The ferroptosis inducer RSL3 triggers interictal epileptiform activity in mice cortical neurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, which result from excessive, synchronous discharges of neurons in different brain areas. In about 30% of cases, epileptic discharges, which vary in their etiology and symptomatology,

Targeted re-sequencing for early diagnosis of genetic causes of childhood epilepsy: the Italian experience from the ‘beyond epilepsy’ project

Italian Journal of Pediatrics, 2020
Background Childhood epilepsies are a heterogeneous group of conditions differing in diagnostic criteria, management, and outcome. Late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) is a neurodegenerative condition caused by biallelic TPP1 ...

Ferroptosis in Friedreich’s Ataxia: A Metal-Induced Neurodegenerative Disease

Biomolecules, 2020
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death, arising from the accumulation of lipid-based reactive oxygen species when glutathione-dependent repair systems are compromised.
