Dabrafenib Promotes Schwann Cell Differentiation by Inhibition of the MEK-ERK Pathway

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Schwann cell differentiation involves a dynamic interaction of signaling cascades. However, much remains to be elucidated regarding the function of signaling molecules that differ depending on the context in which the molecules are engaged.

Is the phoenix sign phenomenon due to vasodilation? A double-blinded, randomized controlled trial comparing motor function recovery after diagnostic common fibular nerve block with lidocaine and papaverine

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Focal entrapment of the common fibular (peroneal) nerve (CFN) is the most common nerve entrapment in the lower extremity. Accurate diagnosis can be difficult due to co-existent pathology such as low back pathology.

Immortalized Schwann cell lines as useful tools for pathogenesis-based therapeutic approaches to diabetic peripheral neuropathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Growing evidence suggests that hyperglycemia-related abnormalities in Schwann cells play a pivotal role in the development and progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).

A Drosophila model of diabetic neuropathy reveals a role of proteasome activity in the glia

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common chronic, progressive complication of diabetes mellitus. The main symptom is sensory loss; the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Rare Primary Mitochondrial DNA Mutations and Probable Synergistic Variants in Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy

open access: yes, 2012
Background Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited blinding disorder, which in over 90% of cases is due to one of three primary mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) point mutations (m.11778G>A, m.3460G>A and m.14484T>C, respectively ...

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Ageing‐Associated Dysregulation of Myogenic Differentiation in Inclusion Body Myositis

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Skeletal muscle is a postmitotic tissue dependent on a complex and tightly regulated regeneration process involving numerous intracellular and extracellular factors, including myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs), cytokines and myokines.

Diffusion Spectrum Imaging Maps Early Axonal Loss and a Unique Progressive Signal in Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To delineate specific in vivo white matter pathology in neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) using diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) and define its clinical relevance. Methods DSI was performed on 42 NIID patients and 38 matched controls.
