Gemin4: A Novel Component of the Smn Complex That Is Found in Both Gems and Nucleoli [PDF]
The survival of motor neurons (SMN) protein, the product of the neurodegenerative disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) gene, is localized both in the cytoplasm and in discrete nuclear bodies called gems.

Exploring neuronal mechanisms of osteosarcopenia in older adults
Abstract figure legend The mechanosensitive osteocytic network within the bone matrix acts as a receptor and plays a crucial role in the functional adaptation of bone to mechanical loading. Through mechanotransduction, osteocytes convert mechanical impulses into electrical signals, which are transmitted via afferent nerves to sympathetic preganglionic ...

ABSTRACT Neuroaxonal dystrophy (NAD) with osteopetrosis syndrome (OMIM # 600329) was first reported in a consanguineous Moroccan Jewish family. However, to date, no genetic variant has been linked to this disease. We report on sibs, born to consanguineous Pakistani parents identified prenatally with cerebral ventriculomegaly and agenesis of the corpus ...

MR‐Guidance of Gene Therapy for Brain Diseases: Moving From Palliative Treatment to Cures
ABSTRACT Regulatory bodies in the U.S. and Europe recently approved a gene therapy for aromatic L‐amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency, a rare neurologic disorder where a genetic mutation prevents dopamine production in the brain. Affected children fail to develop normal motor and cognitive functions.

Cerebellar defects are a primary pathology in mouse models of spinal muscular atrophy
Purkinje cell (PC) degeneration is localized to posterior lobules in the cerebellum, and rescue of survival motor neuron protein expression levels in motor neurons does not ameliorate this effect. Representative images of sagittal cerebellar sections stained with anti‐calbindin in the vermis and hemisphere at P12 for wild type, ChATCre+ rescue (Rescue),
