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

open access: yesItalian 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

open access: yesBiomolecules, 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.

Muscular changes in Engelmann's disease. [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1980
In a case of Engelmann's disease in an 11-year-old Japanese boy the muscular changes were studied in detail. Muscle weakness was maximal about the pelvic girdle. Muscle biopsy showed the selective atrophy of type II fibres, and no degenerative change could be seen histologically, histochemically, or electron-microscopically.

Application value of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound in preoperative localization of microwave ablation for primary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Ultrasonography (US) and 99mTechnetium‐sestamibi scintigraphy (99mTc‐MIBI) are currently first‐line imaging modalities to localize parathyroid adenomas with sensitivities of 80% and 84%, respectively. Therefore, finding other modalities to further improve the diagnostic accuracy for preoperative localization is critically needed ...

Muscular Dystrophy: Disease Mechanisms and Therapies [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
Progressive weakness and degeneration of skeletal muscles caused by genetic alterations fall into the category of muscular dystrophy. Muscular dystrophy occurs worldwide and affects all races. The overall incidence of muscular dystrophy varies among forms, as some forms are more common than others. Muscle loss and weakness are not necessarily caused by

Phenotypic continuum of NFU1‐related disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 2025-2035, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Bi‐allelic variants in Iron–Sulfur Cluster Scaffold (NFU1) have previously been associated with multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome 1 (MMDS1) characterized by early‐onset rapidly fatal leukoencephalopathy. We report 19 affected individuals from 10 independent families with ultra‐rare bi‐allelic NFU1 missense variants associated with a

Hepatobiliary disease in XLMTM: a common comorbidity with potential impact on treatment strategies

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2021
Background X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a rare congenital myopathy resulting from pathogenic variants in the MTM1 gene. Affected male subjects typically present with severe hypotonia and respiratory distress at birth and they often require ...
