Human phenotypes caused by PIEZO1 mutations; one gene, two overlapping phenotypes? [PDF]
PIEZO1 is a large mechanosensitive ion channel protein. Diseases associated with PIEZO1 include autosomal recessive Generalised Lymphatic Dysplasia of Fotiou (GLDF) and autosomal dominant Dehydrated Hereditary Stomatocytosis with or without ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Chronic Pain and Therapeutic Interventions
We offer a comprehensive overview of the distinctive molecular mechanisms underlying nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain, including the immune responses, ion channels, monoaminergic imbalance, and neuroinflammation. Subsequently, we summarized the status quo of nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain managementmanipulation.

Douleur chronique et mécanismes moléculaires [PDF]
La douleur est définie par l'International association for the study of pain (IASP) comme une expérience sensorielle et émotionnelle désagréable, associée à une lésion tissulaire réelle ou à une lésion potentielle, ou décrite en des termes évoquant une ...

Pathway Analyses of Inherited Neuropathies Identify Putative Common Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration
ABSTRACT Objective Inherited neuropathies (IN) are associated with over 100 different genetic mutations presenting with a variety of phenotypes. This complexity suggests multiple pathways may converge onto a limited number of downstream pathways to effect axonal injury.

Search for new loci and low-frequency variants influencing glioma risk by exome-array analysis [PDF]
To identify protein-altering variants (PAVs) for glioma, we analysed Illumina HumanExome BeadChip exome-array data on 1882 glioma cases and 8079 controls from three independent European populations.

Genetic diagnosis of severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy (Dravet syndrome) with SCN1A mutations in the Hong Kong Chinese patients [PDF]
Epilepsy is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders. The advent of molecular genetics brings unprecedented advancement in diagnostic molecular pathology and reduces over-reliance on traditional clinical classification.

Vector‐mediated release of GABA attenuates pain‐related behaviors and reduces Na V 1.7 in DRG neurons [PDF]
Pain is a common and debilitating accompaniment of neuropathy that occurs as a complication of diabetes. In the current study, we examined the effect of continuous release of gamma amino butyric acid (GABA), achieved by gene transfer of glutamic acid ...

Expression of pathogenic SCN9A mutations in the zebrafish: A model to study small-fiber neuropathy
Small-fiber neuropathy (SFN) patients experience a spectrum of sensory abnormalities, including attenuated responses to non-noxious temperatures in combination with a decreased density of the small-nerve fibers. Gain-of-function mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channels SCN9A, SCN10A and SCN11A have been identified as an underlying genetic cause ...

Congenital Insensitivity to Pain: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the SCN9A gene. We report a patient with the clinical features consistent with CIP in whom we detected a novel homozygous G2755T mutation in exon ...
