Diabetes and the Metabolic Syndrome as Drivers of Neurodegeneration: Convergent Mechanisms Linking Peripheral Neuropathy and Dementia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
The metabolic syndrome, a state of progressive metabolic dysfunction, injures the peripheral and central nervous systems, promoting peripheral neuropathy (PN) and cognitive impairment (CI), respectively. We posit PN and CI are connected in the metabolic syndrome framework, built on the premise that neurons, whether in the peripheral or central nervous ...

Upregulation of substance P in low-threshold myelinated afferents is not required for tactile allodynia in the chronic constriction injury and spinal nerve ligation models [PDF]

, 2007
It has been proposed that substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are upregulated in low-threshold myelinated primary afferents after certain types of nerve injury, and that release of substance P from these afferents contributes to the ...

The Potential Role of Synovial T Cell Infiltration Following Knee Joint Injury in Symptoms and Progression to Osteoarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Identification of osteoarthritis (OA)–specific synovial inflammatory pathways and their temporal relevance is critical for therapeutic targeting. We compared mononuclear inflammatory/immune cell responses following joint injury that does or does not lead to OA to define bona fide OA‐associated cellular events.

Psychotropic medication use among community dwellers with and without Parkinson's disease – A nationwide cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims We studied the prevalence of psychotropic use and psychotropic polypharmacy in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) during a 10‐year follow‐up, because longitudinal studies on this topic are scarce although non‐motor symptoms of PD are often treated with psychotropics.

Neurofilament light chain as in vitro and clinical biomarker of vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) is a common side effect in children and adolescents treated with vincristine. Assessing VIPN, especially in young children, is challenging due to a lack of sensitive tools. This limits our understanding of the nature and risk factors of VIPN. This study aimed to investigate neurofilament light chain
