Mutations in genes encoding ribonuclease H2 subunits cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome and mimic congenital viral brain infection.

TL;DR: It is shown that AGS can result from mutations in the genes encoding any one of its three subunits, demonstrating a role for ribonuclease H in human neurological disease and suggesting an unanticipated relationship between ribonUClease H2 and the antiviral immune response that warrants further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and Molecular Phenotype of Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome

Gillian I. Rice, +117 more
TL;DR: The analysis defines the phenotypic spectrum of AGS and suggests a coherent mutation-screening strategy in this heterogeneous disorder, and indicates that at least one further AGS-causing gene remains to be identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ketogenic diet: from molecular mechanisms to clinical effects.

TL;DR: Overall, the data reviewed indicate that considerable advances have been made in understanding the modes of action of the ketogenic diet, its efficacy and tolerability profiles and its potential role in different types of epilepsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multicenter, double-blind, randomized trial of deflazacort versus prednisone in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

TL;DR: Steroid treatment with deflazacort appears to cause fewer side effects than with prednisone, particularly weight gain, which could be important to maximize motor performances.
