Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

Dysregulated Cholesterol Metabolism, Chronic Inflammation, and Disability in Severe Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysregulated lipid metabolism, which can affect remyelination and neural repair, has not been extensively investigated in progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS). The goal was to examine whether dysregulated cholesterol metabolism was associated with disability in PMS. Methods The study sample comprised 53 Severe PMS patients (Expanded

Stage‐Specific Patterns of Imaging and Non‐Motor Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Advancements in disease‐modifying therapies for spinocerebellar ataxia Type 3 (SCA3) underscore the need for robust biomarkers to monitor disease progression and evaluate treatment efficacy. Although motor phenotypes have been well characterized, less is known about non‐motor and imaging‐based features across different disease stages.

Efficacy of Fampridine on Refractory Optic Neuritis in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) usually occur with acute refractory optic neuritis (ON). However, there is a lack of efficacious treatments to improve recovery. Since fampridine has been found to improve the prognosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and MS‐related ON, it is necessary to explore the efficacy of fampridine ...

The Association of Amyloid‐β and Tau With Synaptic Dysfunction in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To clarify the relative contributions of amyloid and tau to synaptic dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods We included 109 cognitively unimpaired and impaired individuals from the Geneva Memory Center with available CSF synaptic biomarkers (neurogranin, SNAP‐25, GAP‐43). Participants were stratified according to amyloid (A)

Myostatin/Smad3 in Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Biomarkers of Disease Severity and Treatment Response

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Given the role of Myostatin (MSTN) in muscle homeostasis and its modulation by current spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) therapies, we investigated serum MSTN and, for the first time, its downstream effector Smad3 as candidate non‐invasive biomarkers in SMA patients undergoing disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs).
