Abstract: Transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) is a rare autosomal dominant disease that provokes systemic deposition of amyloid. It affects the nervous system and it is characterized by progressive sensory, motor, and autonomic neuropathy. Patients with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00438.2022
Abstract: Given the increasing trend of cannabis use for recreational and therapeutic purposes, a comprehensive examination of cannabis effects is warranted. The principal psychoactive constituent of cannabis, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), is a potent disrupter of neurodevelopment. Nevertheless,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2022.1025463
Abstract: The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) mediates neural control of skeletal muscle fibers. Neurotrophic signaling, specifically brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) acting through its high-affinity tropomyosin related kinase B (TrkB) receptor is known to improve neuromuscular transmission.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnsyn.2021.785361
Abstract: Neuromuscular transmission, from spontaneous release to facilitation and depression, was accurately reproduced by a mechanistic kinetic model of sequential maturation transitions in the molecular fusion complex. The model incorporates three predictions. First, calcium-dependent forward transitions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032681
Abstract: Enzyme butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) shows increased activity in some brain regions after progression of Alzheimer’s disease and is therefore one of the therapeutic targets for symptomatic treatment of this neurodegenerative disorder. The organoruthenium(II) complex [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(II)(1-hydroxy-3-methoxypyridine-2(1H)-thionato)pta]PF6 (C1)… read more here.
