Spindle Bursts in Neonatal Rat Cerebral Cortex by Jenq-Wei Yang, Vicente Reyes-Puerta, Werner Kilb, Heiko J. Luhmann

“…Together with early gamma oscillations, spindle bursts synchronize the activity of a local neuronal network organized in a cortical column. Disturbances in spindle burst activity during corticogenesis may contribute to disorders in cortical architecture and in the activity-dependent control of programmed cell death. …”

Drosophila Models of Parkinson's Disease: Discovering Relevant Pathways and Novel Therapeutic Strategies by Verónica Muñoz-Soriano, Nuria Paricio

“…Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and is mainly characterized by the selective and progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons, accompanied by locomotor defects. Although most PD cases are sporadic, several genes are associated with rare familial forms of the disease. …”

A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for Huntingtin (UniProt ID: P42858) for use in western blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence [version 2; peer review: 2... by Rachel J. Harding, Carl Laflamme, Sara González Bolívar, Aled M. Edwards, Kathleen Southern, Rebeka Fanti, Riham Ayoubi, Charles Alende, Maryam Fotouhi, Renu Chandrasekaran

“…Expansion of this repeat tract above a pathogenic threshold of 36 repeats is the causative mutation of Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by loss of striatal neurons. Here we have characterized twenty Huntingtin commercial antibodies for western blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence using a standardized experimental protocol based on comparing read-outs in knockout cell lines and isogenic parental controls. …”

Established Principles and Emerging Concepts on the Interplay between Mitochondrial Physiology and S-(De)nitrosylation: Implications in Cancer and Neurodegeneration by Giuseppina Di Giacomo, Salvatore Rizza, Costanza Montagna, Giuseppe Filomeni

“…In this paper we aim at summarizing the current knowledge of mitochondria-related proteins undergoing S-nitrosylation and how this redox modification might impact on mitochondrial functions, whose impairment has been correlated to tumorigenesis and neuronal cell death. In particular, emphasis will be given to the possible, but still neglected implication of denitrosylation reactions in the modulation of mitochondrial SNOs and how they can affect mitochondrion-related cellular process, such as oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy.…”
