Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is clinically heterogeneous, with substantial variability in motor and cognitive features. Conventional clinical scales provide limited insight into underlying neural mechanisms and show poor longitudinal stability.

The GBA1 p.E427K (p.E388K) Variant Is a Risk Factor for Synucleinopathies: A Meta‐Analysis
Abstract Background Variants in GBA1 are important genetic risk factors for synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease (PD). Although several GBA1 variants are established risk or severity modifiers, the role of the p.E427K variant remains unclear.

High‐Fat Diet Exacerbates Neuropathology in a Transgenic Mouse Model of Multiple System Atrophy
Abstract Background Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare and devastating neurodegenerative disorder. Accumulating clinical and preclinical evidence suggests that diabetes and insulin resistance may adversely influence MSA pathophysiology. Objective We investigated the potential association between diabetes, impaired glucose homeostasis, and MSA ...

ABSTRACT The congenital myasthenic syndromes are rare disorders of impaired signal transmission at the neuromuscular junction. Despite next generation sequencing facilitating the identification of variants in myasthenic‐associated genes, these variants are frequently of unknown significance and the clinical diagnosis can be delayed.

Muscle‐Specific Kinase Signaling and Its Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT The function of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is compromised in many neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) such as autoimmune or congenital myasthenia gravis (MG), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and muscular dystrophies.
