UBE3A Dosage Imbalance as a Molecular Framework Linking Angelman Syndrome and Dup15q‐Associated Autism Phenotypes

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT UBE3A is a dosage‐sensitive HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase whose neuronal expression is shaped by genomic imprinting at the 15q11.2‐q13 locus. Opposite directions of UBE3A dosage imbalance contribute to distinct neurodevelopmental phenotypes: loss of maternal UBE3A underlies Angelman syndrome, whereas maternally derived 15q11.2‐q13 copy‐number gains,

Co‐Occurring Non‐Cardiac Congenital Anomalies Among Cases With Congenital Heart Defects

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cases with congenital heart defects (CHD) often have other associated anomalies. The aim of this investigation was to assess the prevalence and the types of co‐occurring anomalies in CHD in a well‐defined population. The anomalies co‐occurring with CHD were ascertained in all live births, stillbirths and terminations of pregnancy for fetal ...

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...

Single‐cell atlas of neuroglial dynamics in SNCA‐A53T Parkinson's disease mouse model

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We performed single‐cell RNA sequencing of midbrain and striatal tissues from SNCA‐A53T Parkinson's disease (PD) mice, revealing glia‐enriched PD‐risk gene signatures and disease‐specific subpopulations. Transcriptional dysregulation of key TFs (e.g., Rorb, Foxc1) and enhanced neuroinflammatory signaling (SEMA, CCL, MIF) were identified.

Sex Differences in the Association of Simultaneous Decline in Blood Pressure and Decline in Cognition during Aging

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Both high and declining blood pressure (BP) are associated with risk of cognitive decline in older adults, and women have higher rates of hypertension and faster cognitive decline in late‐life. In old age, the relationship between changes in BP and changes in cognition is complex, and although sex differences in cognitive function and decline

Gut–Brain Axis Modulation by Short‐Chain Fatty Acids Exerts Disease‐Modifying Effects in a Murine Model of Drug‐Resistant Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) remains a clinical challenge, as therapies modifying disease trajectory are lacking. Increasing evidence implicates gut microbiota dysbiosis in epilepsy pathophysiology, with short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) emerging as key microbial metabolites with neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory properties.

Hyperacute Interleukin‐1β Production and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation in the Cerebral Circulation of Stroke Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is associated with rapid intravascular immune activation. Analysis of arterial blood sampled distal to the thrombus during mechanical thrombectomy revealed increased extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) levels, evidence of inflammasome priming in monocytes, and ...

Perivascular Spaces as Determinants of Amyloid, Tau, and Vascular Biomarker Progression

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐visible enlarged perivascular spaces (PVS) are markers of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and aging, processes implicated in both neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular pathologies. However, longitudinal positron emission tomography (PET) studies examining PVS as a mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease ...

Tailoring High‐Valent Iron‐Oxo Species Redox via Extended π‐Fe3d–O2p Orbital Overlapping Toward Chemical‐Efficient Water Purification

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We address the long‐standing challenge of reactivity–selectivity trade‐off by precisely tuning the redox properties of Fe(IV), rather than simply accelerating its formation, to enable chemically efficient and low‐emission water treatment. ABSTRACT High‐valent iron oxo species (Fe(IV)) are attractive for wastewater treatment because of their high ...

Distribution of Big Tau Isoforms in the Human Central and Peripheral Nervous System

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Tau is widely studied in neurodegeneration, yet most work has focused on canonical brain tau isoforms. A longer isoform, “big tau,” produced by inclusion of exon 4a, is expressed in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) regions.
