Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging in temporal lobe epilepsy: neuronal dysfunction or cell loss?
BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has demonstrated consistent metabolic abnormalities in temporal lobe epilepsy. The reason for decreases in N-acetylated compounds are thought to be related to neuronal hippocampal cell loss as observed in hippocampal sclerosis. However, mounting evidence suggest that the N-acetylated compound decreases may be functional and reversible. OBJECTIV...
متن کاملPot1a prevents telomere dysfunction and ATM-dependent neuronal loss.
Genome stability is essential for neural development and the prevention of neurological disease. Here we determined how DNA damage signaling from dysfunctional telomeres affects neurogenesis. We found that telomere uncapping by Pot1a inactivation resulted in an Atm-dependent loss of cerebellar interneurons and granule neuron precursors in the mouse nervous system. The activation of Atm by Pot1a...
متن کاملTigarB causes mitochondrial dysfunction and neuronal loss in PINK1 deficiency
OBJECTIVE Loss of function mutations in PINK1 typically lead to early onset Parkinson disease (PD). Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are emerging as a powerful new vertebrate model to study neurodegenerative diseases. We used a pink1 mutant (pink(-/-) ) zebrafish line with a premature stop mutation (Y431*) in the PINK1 kinase domain to identify molecular mechanisms leading to mitochondrial dysfunction a...
متن کاملMeCP2 mediated dysfunction in senescent EPCs
Aging endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) exhibit functional impairment in terms of proliferation, migration and survival. SIRT1 plays an important role in improving EPCs function. MeCP2, another important epigenetic regulator, is involved in regulating many life-related activities such as cell growth, death and senescence. Here we aim to explore the effect of MeCP2 on the functional activities...
متن کاملRadiography; Profit or Loss
The use of radiographic images in dentistry to diagnose caries and other dental diseases has always been inevitable. Almost half of all dental caries are diagnosed only by radiography. However, given the benefits of this method for diagnosing the disease, X-ray examinations have undeniable risks for the patient due to the use of ionizing radiation and their improper use increases the risk of th...
