Defining pre-symptomatic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
Successful treatment of neurodegenerative disease may hinge on early therapeutic intervention. This requires an understanding of early/pre-symptomatic disease, a need that is underscored by advances in antisense oligonucleotide, and viral-vector-based ...

A protective role for N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine phospholipase D in 6-OHDA-induced neurodegeneration. [PDF]
N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine phospholipase D (NAPE-PLD) catalyzes the cleavage of membrane NAPEs into bioactive fatty-acid ethanolamides (FAEs). Along with this precursor role, NAPEs might also serve autonomous signaling functions. Here, we report that

Autophagy in phenoconversion of differentiated and undifferentiated fibroblasts
Cardiac fibroblasts phenoconvert to hypersecretory myofibroblasts and deposit matrix resulting in cardiac fibrosis and autophagy that is associated to fibroproliferative events. Autophagy inhibition was studied in both primary (P0) rat cardiac fibroblasts (PF) and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF).

Phenoconversion Due to Drug–Drug Interactions in CYP2C19 Genotyped Healthy Volunteers
To compensate for drug response variability, drug metabolism phenotypes are determined based on the results of genetic testing, and if necessary, drug dosages are adjusted.

NODDI reveals white matter microstructural changes in isolated REM sleep behavior disorder
Abstract Background Isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a parasomnia that reflects an evolving α‐synucleinopathy disorder, providing an opportunity to study early pathological changes. While diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies have shown white matter changes in iRBD, Neurite Orientation Dispersion and Density Imaging (NODDI) may offer ...

CXCL12/CXCR4-Mediated Procollagen Secretion Is Coupled To Cullin-RING Ubiquitin Ligase Activation
Tissue fibrosis is mediated by the actions of multiple pro-fibrotic proteins that can induce myofibroblast phenoconversion through diverse signaling pathways coupled predominantly to Smads or MEK/Erk proteins.

Using data from the PPMI cohort, including 1,269 individuals with prodromal PD features (isolated RBD: n = 116, isolated hyposmia: n = 570, combined: n = 583) and 284 healthy controls, we found that in prodromal PD, NLR was elevated, primarily due to reduced lymphocyte counts, and this increase was associated with greater motor severity.

Hydralazine is a vasodilator typically used in the treatment of resistant hypertension and heart failure. N‐acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) catalyzes the metabolism of hydralazine into inactive metabolites. NAT2 poor metabolizers (historically referred to as “slow acetylators”) are predicted to have increased plasma hydralazine concentrations compared with ...
