The role of the desert hedgehog signaling pathway during degeneration and regeneration of peripheral nerves
The desert hedgehog (Dhh) signaling pathway is involved in the development of peripheral nerves (PNs). Dhh-null mice show abnormal neuronal development and perineurial barrier function. As it was previously shown that dhh is mainly expressed in developmental nerves and Sonic hedgehog protein (dhh homologous) has therapeutic effects in neuronal survival, we attempted to investigate the possible ...

متن کاملRetinal Degeneration and Regeneration—Lessons From Fishes and Amphibians
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Retinal degenerative diseases have immense socio-economic impact. Studying animal models that recapitulate human eye pathologies aids in understanding the pathogenesis of diseases and allows for the discovery of novel therapeutic strategies. Some non-mammalian species are known to have remarkable regenerative abilities and may provide the basis to develop strategies to stimula...
متن کاملProgressive retinal degeneration and dysfunction in R6 Huntington's disease mice.
Huntington's disease (HD) and spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) belong to a group of progressive neurodegenerative diseases caused by polyglutamine (polyQ) expansions. SCA7 is the only one to display degeneration in the retina, a tissue usually spared in HD. We previously described a SCA7 transgenic retinal model expressing mutant full length ataxin-7 in rod photoreceptors. These mice develo...
متن کاملA rare de novo nonsense mutation in OTX2 causes early onset retinal dystrophy and pituitary dysfunction
PURPOSE To describe the clinical findings of a patient with an early onset retinal dystrophy and a novel mutation in OTX2, and to compare these findings with previously reported cases. METHODS Using direct sequencing, we screened 142 patients, who had either Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) or early onset retinal dystrophy (EORD), for mutations in OTX2. All patients received a detailed ophtha...
