Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are rare neurological disorders that may be of genetic or infectious origin, but most frequently occur sporadically in humans. Their outcome is invariably fatal.

ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), are characterized by the pathological aggregation of specific proteins such as amyloid beta (Aβ) and α‐synuclein, respectively. Early detection of these protein aggregates in biological fluids could facilitate timely diagnosis and therapeutic ...

This study reveals that 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) synapses in the spinal cord and 5‐HT neurons in the brainstem of the SOD1‐G93A amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mouse model are significantly altered, showing a decrease in pre‐symptomatic stages but a marked increase as the disease progresses.
