Aim The genetic architecture of bipolar disorder (BD) remains incompletely understood despite extensive genomic studies. Postzygotic mosaic variants have emerged as promising contributors to BD; however, the landscape of such variants in the BD brain has yet to be elucidated.

ABSTRACT Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is one of the most prevalent haematological malignancies in both humans and dogs, characterised in both species by significant clinical heterogeneity and limited prognostic predictability. With the introduction of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) technologies in veterinary medicine over the past decade ...

Neuroimaging Biomarkers for Friedreich Ataxia: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis of the TRACK‐FA Study
Objective We aimed to quantify differences in the brain and spinal cord between Friedreich ataxia and controls, stratified by age and disease stage, including for the first time in young children. Methods TRACK‐FA is the largest prospective, longitudinal, multi‐modal neuroimaging study in Friedreich ataxia to date.

Our study analyzed longitudinal diffusion MRI data from healthy and Huntington's disease (HD) individuals to investigate the dentato‐rubro‐thalamic tract (DRTT) in HD. Microstructural disruptions along the DRTT were linked to motor and cognitive impairments, suggesting cerebellar involvement in disease progression and highlighting DRTT alterations as ...

High‐Resolution Pharyngeal Manometry Assessment of Swallowing in Asymptomatic Myotonic Dystrophy
While sustained the upper esophageal sphincter relaxation may help maintain swallowing, it hinders MyD patients' ability to recognize their dysphagia, potentially contributing to sudden choking episodes. Early risk management and intervention are necessary for myotonic dystrophy patients, even those unaware of their dysphagia.

Genetically confirmed first Indian dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy kindred: A case report
DRPLA (dentatorubral–pallidoluysian atrophy) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeat expansion (>48) in ATN1 gene at 12p13.31 locus inherited in an autosomal-dominant manner.

Unprecedented Combination of Rare Degenerative Pathologies in an Octogenarian Ex‐Football Player
ABSTRACT A 79‐year‐old former professional football player presented with language deficits and cognitive changes. A year later, he had difficulty completing sentences, and 3 years after onset, was reduced to one‐word answers. He developed severe apathy and agitation, and became more impulsive.

The central role of DNA damage and repair in CAG repeat diseases
Diseases such as Huntington's disease and certain spinocerebellar ataxias are caused by the expansion of genomic cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeats beyond a specific threshold.

Polyglutamine (polyQ) tract expansion (≥ 36 amino acids) within the N‐terminal region of the Huntingtin protein (Httex1) causes Huntington's disease (HD), for which the underlying causes are not well‐understood. The authors performed computer simulations to understand the cause of HD at the molecular level.
