Calcium Signaling, PKC Gamma, IP3R1 and CAR8 Link Spinocerebellar Ataxias and Purkinje Cell Dendritic Development

Current Neuropharmacology, 2017
Background Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a group of cerebellar diseases characterized by progressive ataxia and cerebellar atrophy. Several forms of SCAs are caused by missense mutations or deletions in genes related to calcium signaling in Purkinje

The Cerebellar Cognitive‐Affective Syndrome Scale Reveals Consistent, Early, and Progressive Neuropsychological Deficits in Autosomal‐Recessive Spastic Ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay: A Large International Cross‐Sectional Study

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neuropsychological deficits have been observed in patients with cerebellar damage, but never thoroughly investigated in autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix‐Saguenay (ARSACS). Objectives The goal is the characterization of presence, severity, and profile of neuropsychological deficits in ARSACS using the cerebellar ...

The DNA/RNA autophagy protein SIDT2 as a novel neuropathological hallmark in Huntington disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions are observed in the striatum, cerebral cortex, and hypothalamus in HD cases with different Vonsattel grades, and the frequency of SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions is associated with longer CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene.

Newly identified properties of known pharmaceuticals and myxobacterial small molecules revealed by screening for autophagy modulators

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Autophagy is a cellular degradation process involved in, for example, immune responses to pathogens and neurodegeneration. To identify modulators of autophagy, we developed a microscopy‐based screening assay and identified previously unknown autophagy‐modulating activities in known drugs and natural products from myxobacteria and fungi.

Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...
