Genetic risk factor identification for common epilepsies guided by integrative omics data analysis

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) comprise the most common genetically determined epilepsy syndromes, following a complex mode of inheritance. Although many important common and rare genetic factors causing or contributing to these epilepsies have been identified in the past decades, many features of the genetic architecture are ...

First attempt at using a synthetic diet in short‐lived killifish, a vertebrate model of ageing

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Diet standardization of model organisms is crucial for experimental consistency and repeatability in laboratory research, yet laboratory fish often lack species‐specific, open‐formula standardized diets. This study aims to address this gap by testing the effect of macronutrient content on the performance of Nothobranchius furzeri, an ...

Plasma Pyridoxal 5´-Phosphate Level in Children with Intractable and Controlled Epilepsy [PDF]

Objective Intractable epilepsy is a serious neurologic problem with different etiologies. Decreased levels of pyridoxal phosphate in cerebral spinal fluid of patients with intractable epilepsy due to pyridoxine dependency epilepsy are reported.

Sphingosine Phosphate Lyase Expression Is Essential for Normal Development in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

, 2003
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous membrane constituents whose metabolites function as signaling molecules in eukaryotic cells. Sphingosine 1-phosphate, a key sphingolipid second messenger, regulates proliferation, motility, invasiveness, and programmed cell ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Structural insights into the orthosteric inhibition of P2X receptors by non-ATP analog antagonists

eLife
P2X receptors are extracellular ATP-gated ion channels that form homo- or heterotrimers and consist of seven subtypes. They are expressed in various tissues, including neuronal and nonneuronal cells, and play critical roles in physiological processes ...

Effect of blood contamination of cerebrospinal fluid on amino acids, biogenic amines, pterins and vitamins

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2019
Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) metabolomic investigations are a powerful tool for studying neurometabolic diseases. We aimed to assess the effect of CSF contamination with blood on the concentrations of selected biomarkers. Methods CSF samples were

Effect of antiandrogen flutamide on measures of hepatic regeneration in rats [PDF]

, 1989
Male rat liver undergoes a process of demasculinization during hepatic regeneration following partial hepatectomy. The possibility that antiandrogens might potentiate this demasculinization process and in so doing augment the hepatic regenerative ...
