Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops
R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

Meta-analysis of Gene Expression in Neurodegenerative Diseases Reveals Patterns in GABA Synthesis and Heat Stress Pathways [PDF]
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized as the progressive loss of neural cells, e.g. neurons, glial cells. Ageing, monogenic variations, viral infections, and many other factors are determined and speculated as causes for them. While many individual genes, such as APP for Alzheimer disease and HTT for Huntington disease, and biological pathways ...

Mitochondrial dynamics–fusion, fission, movement, and mitophagy–in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
Neurons are metabolically active cells with high energy demands at locations distant from the cell body. As a result, these cells are particularly dependent on mitochondrial function, as reflected by the observation that diseases of mitochondrial ...

Neurological Consequences of COVID-19 Infection [PDF]
COVID-19 infections have well described systemic manifestations, especially respiratory problems. There are currently no specific treatments or vaccines against the current strain. With higher case numbers, a range of neurological symptoms are becoming apparent.

Assessing Cerebellar Disorders With Wearable Inertial Sensor Data Using Time-Frequency and Autoregressive Hidden Markov Model Approaches [PDF]
We use autoregressive hidden Markov models and a time-frequency approach to create meaningful quantitative descriptions of behavioral characteristics of cerebellar ataxias from wearable inertial sensor data gathered during movement. Wearable sensor data is relatively easily collected and provides direct measurements of movement that can be used to ...

Cellular Senescence in Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Cellular senescence is a homeostatic biological process characterized by a permanent state of cell cycle arrest that can contribute to the decline of the regenerative potential and function of tissues.

Genetics of neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
This issue contains a number of articles on neurodegenerative diseases, most of them genotypically analyzed with next-generation sequencing. Readers will find articles identifying potential mutations in new genes, articles examining different phenotypes associated with variation in the same gene, and a report showing an unusual phenotype associated ...

Cognitive reserve against Alzheimer’s pathology is linked to brain activity during memory formation
The cognitive reserve (CR) hypothesis posits that individuals can differ in how their brain function is disrupted by pathology associated with aging and neurodegeneration.
