Narcolepsy and rapid eye movement sleep
Summary Since the first description of narcolepsy at the end of the 19th Century, great progress has been made. The disease is nowadays distinguished as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. In the 1960s, the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep at sleep onset led to improved understanding of core sleep‐related disease symptoms of the disease (excessive ...

Identification of plant-derived alkaloids with therapeutic potential for myotonic dystrophy type I [PDF]
Myotonic dystrophy type I (DM1) is a disabling neuromuscular disease with no causal treatment available. This disease is caused by expanded CTG trinucleotide repeats in the 3 UTR of the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase gene. On the RNA level, expanded

Senolytics and exercise: Dual modalities for rejuvenating muscle
Abstract figure legend The role of senolytics on the heart and skeletal muscle. Senescent cell burden increases with ageing, disuse and disease. The senolytics dasatinib+quercetin (D+Q), navitoclax and fisetin, as well as exercise, eliminate senescent cells, reducing senescent cell burden and their senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP ...

IDMC-6 - The Sixth International Myotonic Dystrophy Consortium Meeting
In 1992 three groups of investigators found that myotonic dystrophy of Steinert, classical myotonic dystrophy, now known as myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), results from an unstable CTG repeat expansion in the non-coding 3’ region of serinethreonine ...
