1. Optical coherence tomography in neurodegenerative disorders
RESUMO A avaliação estrutural do cérebro, feita por meio dos exames de neuroimagem, é a forma mais utilizada de ferramenta diagnóstica e de acompanhamento das doenças neurodegenerativas. Técnicas de imagem mais sofisticadas podem ser necessárias especialmente nas fases mais precoces, antes mesmo do surgimento de quaisquer sintomas, porém costumam se

2. An Expedient Synthesis of Tacrine-Squaric Hybrids as Potent, Selective and Dual-Binding Cholinesterase Inhibitors
The restoration of acetylcholine levels in the brain by inhibition of cholinesterases is currently the most successful therapeutic strategy to treat neurodegenerative disorders. In this context, tacrine has been largely investigated as a starting scaffold for the development of promising new anticholinesterases compounds for the treatment of neurodegenerativ

3. Physiotherapy for Children with CLN2 Disease
Abstract CLN2 disease (neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2) is a rare, genetic, paediatric-onset, neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder characterised by seizures, ataxia, rapid loss of motor function and language ability, dementia, visual loss and early death. Physiotherapy plays an important role in the management of CLN2 disease, aiming to maintai

4. Behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia in patients with previous severe mental illness: a systematic and critical review
RESUMO Objetivos: Explorar a relação entre doença mental grave (DMG) e a variante comportamental da demência frontotemporal (DFTvc), uma vez que os padrões de sintomas e de desempenho cognitivo que caracterizam ambos os transtornos compartilham semelhanças. Métodos: Revisão sistemática investigando estudos publicados sobre a relação entre DFTvc

5. Leigh Syndrome Due to mtDNA Pathogenic Variants
Abstract Leigh syndrome is a devastating neurodegenerative disease, typically manifesting in infancy or early childhood. Hallmarks of the disease are symmetrical lesions in the basal ganglia or brain stem on MRI, and a clinical course with rapid deterioration of cognitive and motor functions. It is genetically heterogeneous, causative mutations have been dis

6. The Link Between Lysosomal Storage Disorders and More Common Diseases
Abstract In the last decades, it has become more and more evident that lysosomal storage disorders and common neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer and Parkinson diseases have clinical, neuropathological, and genetic features in common, including lysosomal dysfunction and impaired autophagy. Patients with Gaucher and even carriers of Gaucher disease h

7. Potential Therapeutic Targets of the Endocannabinoid System in Common Neurodegenerative Disorders and Organic Acidemias
Abstract The cannabinoid chemistry is currently being addressed in preclinical approaches as a viable therapeutic alternative for the management of a wide range of signs, symptoms, and some biochemical hallmarks of many neurological pathologies (such as neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration). This clinical orientation is grounded on the consistent promisso

8. Revisiting the roles of VHR/DUSP3 phosphatase in human diseases
Protein tyrosine phosphatases have long been considered key regulators of biological processes and are therefore implicated in the origins of various human diseases. Heterozygosity, mutations, deletions, and the complete loss of some of these enzymes have been reported to cause neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune syndromes, genetic disorders, metabolic di

9. Calcium homeostasis modulator 1 ( CALHM1 ) polymorphisms in cattle
ABSTRACT: The calcium homeostasis modulator 1 gene (CALHM1), which is located on chromosome 10 in humans and on chromosome 26 in cattle, is a transmembrane glycoprotein that controls the cytosolic calcium concentrations. Altered calcium homeostasis has been associated with several neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In a recent

10. Amburana cearensis seed extracts protect PC-12 cells against toxicity induced by glutamate
ABSTRACT Amburana cearensis (Allemão) A.C. Sm., Fabaceae, has been widely studied for its medicinal activities. Many neurodegenerative disorders are caused by oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, excitotoxicity induced by glutamate and ultimately cell death. This study describes the chemical profile of the ethanolic, hexane, dichloromethane, and eth

11. Otoneurological Abnormalities in Patients with Friedreich's Ataxia
Abstract Introduction Friedreich's ataxia is a neurodegenerative disease and progressive by nature. It has autosomal recessive inheritance and early onset inmost cases. Nystagmus and hearing loss (in some cases) make up some of the common symptoms seen in this disorder. Objective The objective of this study is to examine vestibular disorders in patientsw

12. Homocysteine induces glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase acetylation and apoptosis in the neuroblastoma cell line Neuro2a
High plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy) promote the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the mechanism by which Hcy mediates neurotoxicity has not been elucidated. We observed that upon incubation with Hcy, the viability of a neuroblastoma cell line Neuro2a declined in a dose-dependent manner, and apoptosis was induced within 48 h. The median
