DOI: 10.1007/s00381-021-05077-z
Abstract: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic autosomal dominant disease caused by mutation of the protein neurofibromin, a regulator of cell growth. The most frequent intracranial findings are unidentified bright objects (UBOs), thickening of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12035-020-01952-z
Abstract: Cathepsins are a family of lysosomal/endosomal proteolytic enzymes that include serine, aspartate, and cysteine proteases. The role of cathepsin in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, remains elusive. We evaluated the expression level… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/chemse/bjaa052
Abstract: It is well established that early blindness results in enhancement of the remaining non-visual sensory modalities accompanied by functional and anatomical brain plasticity. While auditory and tactile functions have been largely investigated, the results regarding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13229-019-0257-5
Abstract: BackgroundAutism spectrum disorders (ASD) exhibit two clusters of core symptoms, i.e., social and communication impairment, and repetitive behaviors and sensory abnormalities. Our previous study demonstrated that TBR1, a causative gene of ASD, controls axonal projection… read more here.
