RNA-Binding Proteins in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Neurodegeneration by Scott E. Ugras, James Shorter

“…Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is an adult onset neurodegenerative disease, which is universally fatal. While the causes of this devastating disease are poorly understood, recent advances have implicated RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that contain predicted prion domains as a major culprit. …”

Satellite microglia: marker of traumatic brain injury and regulator of neuronal excitability by Alicia B. Feichtenbiner, Karinn Sytsma, Ryan P. O’Boyle, Rhonda Mittenzwei, Heather Maioli, Kathryn P. Scherpelz, Daniel D. Child, Ning Li, Jeanelle Ariza Torres, Lisa Keene, Amanda Kirkland, Kimberly Howard, Caitlin Latimer, C. Dirk Keene, Christopher Ransom, Amber L. Nolan

“…Abstract Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of chronic neurologic disability and a risk factor for development of neurodegenerative disease. However, little is known regarding the pathophysiology of human traumatic brain injury, especially in the window after acute injury and the later life development of progressive neurodegenerative disease. …”

Controllability of Functional and Structural Brain Networks by Ali Moradi Amani, Amirhessam Tahmassebi, Andreas Stadlbauer, Uwe Meyer-Baese, Vincent Noblet, Frederic Blanc, Hagen Malberg, Anke Meyer-Baese

“…Describing the nature of these interactions has been a challenging task yet important for neurodegenerative disease evolution. Fusing modern dynamic graph network theory techniques and control theory applied on complex brain networks creates a new framework for neurodegenerative disease research by determining disease evolution at the subject level, facilitating a predictive treatment response and revealing key mechanisms responsible for disease alterations. …”
