Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) has been historically defined as a disease of striatal dopamine deficiency secondary to degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, related to the presence of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites.

Current models of the virus-like agents of scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) have to take into account that structural changes in a host-encoded protein (PrP protein) exhibit an effect on the time course of these diseases and the ...

An overview of human prion diseases
Prion diseases are transmissible, progressive and invariably fatal neurodegenerative conditions associated with misfolding and aggregation of a host-encoded cellular prion protein, PrPC.

Instability of the Octarepeat Region of the Human Prion Protein Gene
Prion diseases are a family of unique fatal transmissible neurodegenerative diseases that affect humans and many animals. Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is the most common prion disease in humans, accounting for 85-90% of all human prion cases, and exhibits a high degree of diversity in phenotypes.

Neuroprotective Effects of RNS60 in TDP‐43 Pathology‐Associated Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Introduction TDP‐43 pathology is broadly observed in the cerebral cortex of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). RNS60, an experimental treatment for acute ischemic stroke and ALS, enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and function in other preclinical models.

Aspects of prion protein dynamics in cell culture models.
The cell biology of Prion formation and transfer is not well understood. In order to further elucidate the dynamics of PrPc and PrPsc in a cellular context, fusions between Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) and PrP were constructed and infected/uninfected ...

Efficient transmission and characterization of creutzfeldt-jakob disease strains in bank voles.
Transmission of prions between species is limited by the "species barrier," which hampers a full characterization of human prion strains in the mouse model.

Analysis of the prion protein gene in multiple system atrophy
Neurodegenerative diseases are a very diverse group of disorders but they share some common mechanisms such as abnormally misfolded proteins with prion-like propagation and aggregation. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is the most prevalent prion disease in humans.

RNA‐binding protein RBMS1: A new target for cancer diagnosis and treatment
This schematic illustrates the diverse regulatory roles of RNA‐binding motif single‐stranded interacting protein 1 (RBMS1) across multiple human cancers. In breast cancer, RBMS1 stabilizes B4GALT1 mRNA to promote PD‐L1 glycosylation, modulating tumor immune escape and immunotherapy efficacy.
