Klotho pathways, myelination disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and epigenetic drugs [PDF]
In this review we outline a rationale for identifying neuroprotectants aimed at inducing endogenous Klotho activity and expression, which is epigenetic action, by definition. Such an approach should promote remyelination and/or stimulate myelin repair by

Enteric Nervous System and Its Relationship with Neurological Diseases
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is a fundamental component of the gastrointestinal system, composed of a vast network of neurons and glial cells. It operates autonomously but is interconnected with the central nervous system (CNS) through the vagus nerve.

Beyond Cholinesterase Inhibition. Anti-Inflammatory Role and Pharmacological Profile of Current Drug Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Inflammation is a common response of an individual against either exogenous or endogenous damage. The role of inflammation and of inflammatory cells recently emerged also in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Experimental evidences show how

The loss of cells in the human nervous system has long been known as the hallmark of incurable degenerative disease. Recent studies that began with attempts to understand cell loss during normal development have now begun to contribute to our understanding of the process of pathological cell loss.

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations
Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite

UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase variants cause dystroglycanopathy
Abstract UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) variants have been associated with hypotonia, developmental delay, and epilepsy. We report the first pathologic evidence of dystroglycanopathy in siblings with UGDH variants. Both presented around 6 months with developmental delay and elevated creatinine kinase.

Neurology in the 21st century: contemporary state of diagnostics and therapeutics [PDF]
Although neurological disease has been recognized since antiquity, neurology as a systematic clinical discipline is less than 130 years old. Neurological practice has traditionally been constrained by the complexity of the human nervous system, which has

Claustrum Volume Is Reduced in Multiple Sclerosis and Predicts Disability
ABSTRACT Objective The claustrum is a small, thin structure of predominantly gray matter with broad connectivity and enigmatic function. Little is known regarding the impact of claustrum pathology in multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods This study assessed whether claustrum volume was reduced in MS and whether reductions were associated with specific ...
