Journal ArticleDOI

Nail-Patella Syndrome Associated with Respiratory Chain Disorder

TL;DR: This case demonstrates that NPS may be randomly associated with RCD, and NPS patients should undergo detailed cardiological and neurological investigations, in order not to overlook a double trouble partially mimicking NPS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intraneuronal immunoreactivity for the prion protein distinguishes a subset of E200K genetic from sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease.

TL;DR: These findings suggest that the permanent production of mutant PrP in the E200K gCJD cases overwhelms the ubiquitin-proteasome system and shifts the balance toward selectivemacroautophagy and/or to ubiquitinated inclusion body and aggresome formation as a cytoprotective effort to sequester the mutant protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rabies and herpes simplex virus encephalitis. An immunohistological study on site and distribution of viral antigens.

TL;DR: In the leptomeninges, HSV antigen positive cells were found inconstantly and only in small numbers; this finding makes unlikely the possibility of an intravital diagnosis of HSV encephalitis by immunostaining of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cell preparations.
Book ChapterDOI

SSPE-like inclusion body disorder in treated childhood leukemia.

TL;DR: Clinico-pathological report on a boy with cytostatically treated leukemia, dying with cerebral symptoms after passing clinical measles 10 weeks before death, and at autopsy, numerous nuclear inclusion bodies in glial and nerve cells were found suggested a slow type of measles virus infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serotonergic nuclei of the raphe are not affected in human ageing.

TL;DR: Investigating the serotonergic median raphe nuclei in brains of an older and a younger group found no significant difference between age groups in the percentage of neurons able to synthesize serotonin, suggesting changes might relate to sleep disturbances in the elderly.
