Mitochondrial dysfunction: Related diseases, influencing factors, and detection
Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases, including neurological disorders, cancers, and cardiovascular conditions, through mechanisms such as mitochondrial DNA mutations, dysregulation of mitochondrial network dynamics, and impaired mitophagy.

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.

Mass spectrometry imaging of N‐linked glycans: Fundamentals and recent advances
Abstract With implications in several medical conditions, N‐linked glycosylation is one of the most important posttranslation modifications present in all living organisms. Due to their nontemplate synthesis, glycan structures are extraordinarily complex and require multiple analytical techniques for complete structural elucidation.

Abstract Background Dopaminergic neuron depletion in the substantia nigra (SN) and the pathological aggregation of α‐synuclein are the neuropathological hallmarks of Parkinson's disease (PD). Objectives This study aimed to investigate the association between the polygenic risk score for PD (PD‐PRS) and transcranial sonography (TCS)‐measured SN ...

The Gut‐Brain Axis in Parkinson disease: Emerging Concepts and Therapeutic Implications
Abstract Background The gut‐brain axis, i.e. the bidirectional communication system between the gut and the brain, has become of central importance in Parkinson disease (PD) research over the past 20 years. Aims We aimed to describe the milestones of the gut‐brain axis research in PD and the development of theories proposing the involvement of the ...

Abstract Background Dysphagia significantly impacts prognosis in individuals with multiple system atrophy (MSA). While video‐based assessments are practical, their limited availability highlights the need for a simple tool such as the Dysphagia Severity Scale (DSS) in clinical practice.

Myoclonic Dystonia: A Common Phenomenology in the Pleomorphic Movements of Angelman Syndrome
Abstract Background Angelman syndrome (AS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, a sociable demeanor, and abnormal movements. People with AS often exhibit multiple types of abnormal movements, including nonepileptic myoclonus, tremor, and dystonia, which hamper attempts to identify phenomenology
