Insoluble protein aggregates are a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) serves as a neuroprotective quality control mechanism that clears aggregates. PML nuclear bodies (NBs) were proposed to serve as hubs for SUMO‐primed ubiquitylation and degradation of misfolded ...

ESSENTIAL TREMOR WITHIN THE BROADER CONTEXT OF OTHER FORMS OF CEREBELLAR DEGENERATION
Essential tremor (ET) has recently been reconceptualized by many as a degenerative disease of the cerebellum. Until now, though, there has been no attempt to frame it within the context of these diseases.

Stimulating proteasomal degradation in human proteinopathies
The proteasome mediates the degradation of a wide range of proteins. Boosting proteasomal degradation may be beneficial in several disease contexts and can be achieved either by modulating proteasome activity or by improving substrate delivery. Proteasome activity can be enhanced by increasing proteasome abundance, inducing constitutive gate opening ...

Cognitive and motor reserve in Parkinson's disease: Two sides of the same coin?
Abstract Cognitive reserve (CR) and motor reserve (MR) are constructs that can explain why some people are more resilient than others to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it is unclear whether these reserves exert domain‐specific or cross‐domain influences.

Technologies for engineering repetitive DNA
Abstract Repetitive DNA, a fundamental architectural element of genomes, is widespread across organisms and comprises about 54% of the human genome. With advances in long‐read sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, highly repetitive sequences can now be characterized in depth.

Sjögren: unique surname, two men, four syndromes and one disease
Henrik and Torsten Sjögren (/ˈʃoʊɡrən/ or SHOH–grən) were two Swedish physicians living in the same period, but completely unrelated, except for their notable contributions to Medicine. The first one described keratoconjunctivitis sicca, afterward called

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Human‐relevant methods are essential for modern chemical safety assessment. This study helps define the capabilities and boundaries of an in vitro testing battery for developmental neurotoxicity by exploring its biological applicability domain. By linking neurodevelopmental disease‐related pathways to key neurodevelopmental processes, the work enhances
