Cascading Pattern in Genetic Risk Research for Alzheimer’s Disease Background and Research Motivation Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a slowly progressing neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of two pathological features: amyloid plaques and phosphorylated tau neurofibrillary tangles. These pathological features typically exist ...
Biallelic Variants in SNUPN Cause a Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy with Myofibrillar Features Academic Background Muscular dystrophies are a complex and heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and atrophy due to loss of muscle fibers. Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophies (LGMD) are a subtype primarily...
A2A Adenosine Receptor Exacerbates Synaptic Loss and Memory Deficits in APP/PS1 Mice Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with progressive cognitive decline, characterized by the deposition of extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau protein in neurons. Some epidemiological ...
Parkinson’s Disease Mouse Model: IL-10 Gene Delivery Inhibits Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration As research into the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) deepens, the role of neuroinflammation in PD is gradually being revealed. This study by Simone Bido and his team, published in “Science Translational Medicine”, explores the effects of t...
A Study on the Correlation Between Different Learning Abnormalities and Delusional-like Beliefs of Various Contents Research Background Delusions are a major feature of psychotic disorders (such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, and certain neurological and autoimmune diseases). Although delusions clinically manifest as fixed erroneou...
Introduction This report aims to reveal the recent research findings published by Hui Chen et al. in “Science Translational Medicine”, which explores the application of exogenous Acyl-Coenzyme A Binding Protein (ACBP) in Anorexia Nervosa. Anorexia Nervosa is a prevalent and difficult-to-treat eating disorder that primarily affects adolescents and y...
New Research Reveals the Mechanism of Atogepant in Migraine Prevention Background Migraine is a common and highly disruptive neurological disorder affecting millions of people worldwide. Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) is believed to play a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine. CGRP released from sensory trigeminal ganglia neurons in ...
Introduction In recent years, oligonucleotide-based therapeutic technologies, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), have been widely applied in the treatment of various neurological disorders. The basis for their application is that these technologies can selectively regulate target RNA molecules, which are ...
“Revisiting Distinct Nerve Excitability Patterns in Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis” Academic Background Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of central and peripheral motor neurons. Although the disease is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, axonal hy...
Research on the Association between Neural Networks and Functional Outcomes in Radiotherapy Patients with Pharyngeal Cancer 1. Paper Background Introduction The incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV)-mediated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) has significantly increased over the past 40 years, especially among younger populations with ...
