Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.

Modulation of the Stress Granule Component Carhsp1 Mitigates Disease‐Associated Deficits in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 Mouse Models

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a polyglutamine (polyQ) neurogenerative disorder that results from CAG trinucleotide repeat expansions in the ATXN3 gene, leading to toxic protein aggregate formation and cellular pathway dysfunction.

Pattern formation during development of the embryonic cerebellum [PDF]

, 2012
The patterning of the embryonic cerebellum is vital to establish the elaborate zone and stripe architecture of the adult. This review considers early stages in cerebellar Purkinje cell patterning, from the organization of the ventricular zone to the ...

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.

Transient developmental Purkinje cell axonal torpedoes in healthy and ataxic mouse cerebellum

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Information is carried out of the cerebellar cortical microcircuit via action potentials propagated along Purkinje cell axons. In several human neurodegenerative diseases, focal axonal swellings on Purkinje cells – known as torpedoes – have been ...

Alzheimer's disease and mixed pathologies as a hidden contributor to fatal hypothermia: A large‐scale forensic autopsy‐based study

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
We investigated neuropathological manifestations of hypothermia in 168 cases. Patients aged 65 years or more constituted 80% of the total cohort. Alzheimer's disease was the most common comorbidity, affecting 40% of all patients. Abstract There is a paucity of autopsy‐based studies providing detailed neuropathological characteristics of fatal ...

Higher sensitivity to ouabain‐induced toxicity in human induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes than human adult heart tissue despite similar Na+/K+‐ATPase pump current amplitudes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Human induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CM) have gained interest as a pharmacological model but their immaturity leads to uncertainty regarding translation. We studied the key player in maintaining ionic homeostasis, the Na+/K+‐ATPase (NKA), in hiPSC‐CM.

Human neuronal stargazin-like proteins, gamma(2), gamma(3) and gamma(4); an investigation of their specific localization in human brain and their influence on Ca(V)2.1 voltage-dependent calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]

, 2003
Background: Stargazin (gamma(2)) and the closely related gamma(3), and gamma(4) transmembrane proteins are part of a family of proteins that may act as both neuronal voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) gamma subunits and transmembrane alpha-amino-3 ...

Biosynthesis, mode of action and functional significance of neurosteroids in the Purkinje cell

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011
The brain has traditionally been considered to be a target site of peripheral steroid hormones. In addition to this classical concept, we now know that the brain has the capacity to synthesize steroids de novo from cholesterol, the so-called ...
