Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

The effect of a bout of resistance exercise on skeletal muscle protein metabolism after severe fasting

Physiological Reports, 2019
Resistance exercise (RE) activates the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway and increases muscle protein synthesis. Severe fasting induces 5′ adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), which attenuates mTORC1

GSK-3β at the Crossroads in Regulating Protein Synthesis and Lipid Deposition in Zebrafish

Cells, 2019
In this study, the mechanism by which GSK-3β regulates protein synthesis and lipid deposition was investigated in zebrafish (Danio rerio). The vector of pEGFP-N1-GSK-3β was constructed and injected into the muscle of zebrafish.

Prenatal betamethasone–postnatal N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid model of spasms: Update on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

Astrocyte subtype‐specific alterations in the dentate gyrus of individuals with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects approximately 50 million people worldwide and, although primarily attributed to neuronal dysfunction, increasing evidence highlights a critical role of glial cells, particularly astrocytes, in the pathophysiological mechanisms.

Tuberous sclerosis complex 2 gene product interacts with human SMAD proteins. A molecular link of two tumor suppressor pathways.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2004
Tuberin (TSC2) is a tumor suppressor gene. At the cellular level, tuberin is required as a critical regulator of cell growth, neuronal differentiation, and tumor suppression. Here we report a critical role for tuberin in late stage myeloid cell differentiation.

N6‐Methyladenosine in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An Emerging Regulator of Pathogenesis and a Novel Therapeutic Frontier

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the intestine associated with an imbalance in intestinal homeostasis. m6A‐modifying enzymes, consisting of m6A writers, erasers and readers, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis and progression of IBD by affecting four intestinal barriers, including the intestinal mechanical ...

A cell-penetrating ester of the neural metabolite lanthionine ketimine stimulates autophagy through the mTORC1 pathway: Evidence for a mechanism of action with pharmacological implications for neurodegenerative pathologies

Neurobiology of Disease, 2015
Autophagy is a fundamental cellular recycling process vulnerable to compromise in neurodegeneration. We now report that a cell-penetrating neurotrophic and neuroprotective derivative of the central nervous system (CNS) metabolite, lanthionine ketimine ...

Reversing brain aging: Targeting energy metabolism in endogenous neural stem cells

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Mechanism of endogenous neural stem cells (eNSCs) energy metabolism disorder leading to brain aging and targeted eNSCs intervention strategies (By biorender). The disorder of energy metabolism of eNSCs can lead to their resting and aging, and eventually lead to brain aging.
