Embryonic neuronal markers in tuberous sclerosis: single-cell molecular pathology.
One hallmark of tuberous sclerosis (TSC) is the presence of highly epileptogenic dysplastic cerebral cortex (tubers) composed of abnormally shaped neurons and giant cells. Mutation of the TSC gene (TSC2) may disrupt differentiation and maturation of neuronal precursors, since the TSC2 gene product tuberin is believed to regulate cellular proliferation. To test the hypothesis that cells in tuber...
متن کاملMolecular markers of neuronal progenitors in the embryonic cerebellar anlage.
The cerebellum, like the cerebrum, includes a nuclear structure and an overlying cortical structure. Experiments in the past decade have expanded knowledge beyond the traditional function of the cerebellum to include critical roles in motor learning and memory and sensory discrimination. The initial steps in cerebellar development depend on inductive signaling involving FGF and Wnt proteins pro...
متن کاملHuman embryonic and neuronal stem cell markers in retinoblastoma
PURPOSE Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common intraocular tumor of early childhood. The early onset of RB, coupled with our previous findings of cancer stem cell characteristics in RB, led us to hypothesize that subpopulations of RB tumors harbor markers and behaviors characteristic of embryonic and neuronal origin. METHODS Our RB sources included: human pathological tissues, and the human R...
متن کاملTuberous sclerosis complex; single center experience.
AIM This study was planned with the aim of retrospectively reviewing the clinical and laboratory findings and therapies of our patients diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis and redefining the patients according to the diagnostic criteria revised by the 2012 International Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Consensus Group and comparing them with the literature. MATERIALS AND METHOD Twenty patients diagno...
متن کاملBiological markers of intellectual disability in tuberous sclerosis.
BACKGROUND Intellectual disability (ID) is highly prevalent in tuberous sclerosis (TS). Putative neurobiological risk factors include indices of cortical tuber (CT) load and epilepsy. We have used univariate and multivariate analyses, including both CT and epilepsy measures as predictors, in an attempt to clarify the pattern of cross-sectional associations between these variables and ID in TS. ...
