The Spectrum of Abnormal Tongue Movements: Review of Phenomenology, Etiology, and Differential Diagnosis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classifying abnormal tongue movements is challenging due to their varied presentations and limited visibility compared to other body parts. Accurate identification of the phenomenology guides physical examination and can point to specific diagnoses.

Genetics of Prion Disease

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2011
Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are neurodegenerative disorders of humans and animals for which there are no effective treatments or cure. They include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans and sheep scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids.

Characterization of variably protease-sensitive prionopathy by capillary electrophoresis

Scientific Reports
Variably Protease Sensitive Prionopathy (VPSPr) is a rare human prion disease that, like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), results in the deposition of abnormally folded prion protein aggregates in the brain and is ultimately fatal.

The Prion Diseases

Scientific American, 1995
The human prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative maladies that may present as sporadic, genetic, or infectious illnesses. The sporadic form is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) while the inherited disorders are called familial (f) CJD, Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker (GSS) disease and fatal familial insomnia (FFI).

Differentiation of Plant and Animal‐Derived Cholesterol Using irm‐13C NMR and IRMS

Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, EarlyView.
Determining and certifying the origin of ingredients, starting materials, and excipients used in manufactured goods like cosmetics and medicines can be difficult. In this report, we describe a robust approach for identifying the origin of cholesterol, a component of myriad consumer products using irm‐13C NMR and IRMS to differentiate plant versus ...

Methionine 129 variant of human prion protein oligomerizes more rapidly than the valine 129 variant - Implications for disease susceptibility to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]

, 2004
The human PrP gene (PRNP) has two common alleles that encode either methionine or valine at codon 129. This polymorphism modulates disease susceptibility and phenotype of human transmissible spongiform encyphalopathies, but the molecular mechanism by ...
