Neuropathology of phenylketonuria (PKU)
Untreated phenylketonuria (PKU) causes cognitive, neuropsychological and motor skills impairment as well as microcephaly and demyelization. Persistent hyperphenylalaninemia produces toxicity on neurons and glial cells, alters cortical development, growth

Brain atrophy in multiple sclerosis: therapeutic, cognitive and clinical impact
Multiple sclerosis (MS) was always considered as a white matter inflammatory disease. Today, there is an important body of evidence that supports the hypothesis that gray matter involvement and the neurodegenerative mechanism are at least partially ...

A Novel Genetic Screen Identifies Modifiers of Age-Dependent Amyloid β Toxicity in the Drosophila Brain [PDF]
The accumulation of amyloid β peptide (Aβ) in the brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients begins many years before clinical onset. Such process has been proposed to be pathogenic through the toxicity of Aβ soluble oligomers leading to synaptic ...

The 6-hydroxydopamine model and parkinsonian pathophysiology: Novel findings in an older model
The neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) is widely used to induce models of Parkinson's disease (PD). We now know that the model induced by 6-OHDA does not include all PD symptoms, although it does reproduce the main cellular processes involved in PD ...
