The Peripheral Nervous System and the Pathogenesis of Prion Diseases [PDF]
Current Molecular Medicine, 2004 Prion diseases are inevitably fatal neurodegenerative conditions which affect humans and a wide variety of animals. Unlike other protein aggregation diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and polyglutamine repeat diseases, prion diseases are unique in that they are transmissible.

Peripherin is a biomarker of axonal damage in peripheral nervous system disease
Brain, 2023 Abstract Valid, responsive blood biomarkers specific to peripheral nerve damage would improve management of peripheral nervous system (PNS) diseases. Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is sensitive for detecting axonal pathology but is not specific to PNS damage, as it is expressed throughout the PNS and CNS.

Impact of intestinal disorders on central and peripheral nervous system diseases
Neurobiology of Disease, 2022 Brain injuries and neurological diseases have a significant impact on the gut microbiome and the gut barrier. Reciprocally, gut disorders, such as Inflammatory Bowel Syndromes (IBS), can affect the development and pathology of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, although this aspect is less well studied and is the focus of this review ...

Peripheral nervous system involvement in patients with sickle cell disease [PDF]
European Journal of Neurology, 2009 Peripheral nervous system involvement is rare in sickle cell disease (SCD). The aim of this study is to determine the peripheral nerve involvement electrophysiologically in SCD patients without clinically evident neurological signs, symptoms and to determine the relationship between the frequency of sickle cell crisis and peripheral neuropathy.Fifty ...
