Current Techniques for Investigating the Brain Extracellular Space
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-14)
The brain extracellular space (ECS) is a continuous reticular compartment that lies between the cells of the brain. It is vast in extent relative to its resident cells, yet, at the same time the nano- to micrometer dimensions ...
A Genotyping Method Combining Primer Competition PCR with HRM Analysis to Identify Point Mutations in Duchenne Animal Models
(Nature, 2020-10-14)
Dystrophin-null sapje zebrafish is an excellent model for better understanding the pathological mechanisms underlying Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and it has recently arisen as a powerful tool for high-throughput screening ...
Estudio del metabolismo energético muscular en la Esclerosis Lateral Amiotrófica
(2020-06-16)
La esclerosis lateral amiotrófica (ELA) es una enfermedad degenerativa de las motoneuronas que produce un debilitamiento muscular gradual hasta ocasionar parálisis y muerte mientras el paciente es consciente de esta ...
Changes in Day/Night Activity in the 6-OHDA-Induced Experimental Model of Parkinson’s Disease: Exploring Prodromal Biomarkers
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-14)
The search for experimental models mimicking an early stage of Parkinson's disease (PD) before motor manifestations is fundamental in order to explore early signs and get a better prognosis. Interestingly, our previous ...
Disruption of Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells is an Early Sign of Pathology in the Triple Transgenic Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease
(Elsevier, 2020-10)
There is increasing evidence that myelin disruption is related to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the CNS, myelin is produced by oligodendrocytes, which are generated throughout life by adult oligodendrocyte ...
Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor 1 Specifically Labels Seizure-Induced Hippocampal Reactive Neural Stem Cells and Regulates Their Division
(Frontiers Media, 2020-08-14)
A population of neural stem cells (NSCs) dwelling in the dentate gyrus (DG) is able to generate neurons throughout adult life in the hippocampus of most mammals. These NSCs generate also astrocytes naturally and are capable ...
A beta oligomers promote oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation via integrin beta 1 and Fyn kinase signaling
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-06-06)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a progressive cognitive decline that correlates with the levels of amyloid beta-peptide (A beta) oligomers. Strong evidences connect changes of oligodendrocyte function with the ...
CLR01 Protects Dopaminergic Neurons in Vitro and in Mouse Models of Parkinson's Disease
(Nature, 2020-09-28)
Parkinson's disease (PD) affects millions of patients worldwide and is characterized by alpha-synuclein aggregation in dopamine neurons. Molecular tweezers have shown high potential as anti-aggregation agents targeting ...
Age‐related cognitive decline in myotonic dystrophy type 1: An 11‐year longitudinal follow‐up study
(Wiley, 2020-03)
Background Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an inherited multi-systemic disease involving the central nervous system (CNS) and is consequently characterized by a range of cognitive impairments. However, whether this ...
Social cognition in myotonic dystrophy type 1: Specific or secondary impairment?
(Public Library Science, 2018-09-24)
Aims
The cognitive profile of Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1) has been described in recent decades. Moreover, DM1 patients show lowered social engagement and difficulties in social-cognitive functions. The aim of the ...
