Cells, 2022 One of the most intriguing dogmas in neurosciences—the empirical lack of brain neuronal regeneration in adulthood onwards to late life—began to be debunked initially by research groups focused on understanding postnatal (early days/weeks of murine and guinea pigs) neurodevelopmental and neuroplastic events [...]

Rare Does Not Mean Worthless: How Rare Diseases Have Shaped Neurodevelopment Research in the NGS Era
Biomolecules, 2021 The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) is heavily changing both the diagnosis of human conditions and basic biological research. It is now possible to dig deep inside the genome of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people and find both ...

Neurogenesis or non-neurogenesis: that is the question [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2014 Neural stem/precursor cells (NPCs) that reside within germinal niches of the adult CNS have more complex roles than previously expected. In addition to their well-documented neurogenic functions, emerging evidence indicates that NPCs exert non-neurogenic functions that contribute to the regulation and preservation of tissue homeostasis under both ...

Nature Communications, 2022 Dravet syndrome is a devastating epileptic encephalopathy caused by Scn1a gene haploinsufficiency. Exploiting a novel knock-in mouse model, here the authors show that restoring Scn1a expression after symptom onset is sufficient to rescue main phenotypic ...

SETD5 haploinsufficiency affects mitochondrial compartment in neural cells
Molecular Autism, 2023 Background Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are heterogeneous conditions due to alterations of a variety of molecular mechanisms and cell dysfunctions. SETD5 haploinsufficiency leads to NDDs due to chromatin defects.

Metabolism and neurogenesis [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2017 The generation of neurons in the developing and adult mammalian brain by neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) depends on a tight control of NSPC activity and neuronal differentiation that is regulated by a plethora of intrinsic and extrinsic molecular cues.

Translational Psychiatry, 2021 The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a ubiquitously expressed kinase that acts through two complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, to regulate protein homeostasis, as well as long lasting forms of synaptic and behavioral plasticity. Alteration of the mTOR
