Exploratory spatial data analysis for the identification of risk factors to birth defects
BMC Public Health, 2004 Background Birth defects, which are the major cause of infant mortality and a leading cause of disability, refer to "Any anomaly, functional or structural, that presents in infancy or later in life and is caused by events preceding birth, whether ...

Demonstration of astrocytes in cultured amniotic fluid cells of three cases with neural-tube defect [PDF]
, 1981 We have investigated the origin of rapidly adhering (RA) cells in three cases of neural tube defects (two anencephali, one encephalocele). We were able to demonstrate the presence of glial fibrillary acidic (GFA) protein in variable percentages (4–80 ...

Role of miRNAs in neural tube development
, 2013 Although mutations in hundreds (>200) of genes have been causally linked to neural tube defects (NTDs) in mouse, in humans the elucidation of genetic factors associated to NTD has remained elusive.

Double site neural tube defects: report of two cases
Egyptian Journal of NeurosurgeryIntroduction Multiple-site neural tube defect is a congenital defect at two or more locations along the neural axis. Double-site neural defects are very rare, having a normal segment between two neural tube defects, and are different from complex spinal ...

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]
, 2009 Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

A computational dynamic systems model for in silico prediction of neural tube closure defects
Current Research in ToxicologyNeural tube closure is a critical morphogenetic event during early vertebrate development. This complex process is susceptible to perturbation by genetic errors and chemical disruption, which can induce severe neural tube defects (NTDs) such as spina ...
