Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared miRNA from the plasma of sALS patients and healthy controls using two cohorts; a discovery cohort analyzed with microarray and a validation cohort confirmed with qPCR, and they measured the total amount of extracted RNA along with a spikein control that ensured the quality of quantification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Xenon has greater inhibitory effects on spinal dorsal horn neurons than nitrous oxide in spinal cord transected cats.
TL;DR: Xe has a direct antinociceptive action on the spinal cord that is greater than that of N2O, and this effect may be produced by the direct effect on spinal dorsal horn neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dexmedetomidine reduces seizure threshold during enflurane anaesthesia in cats.
TL;DR: It is found that high-dose dexmedetomidine reduced seizure threshold during enflurane anaesthesia, and this effect was reversed by yohimbine.
Journal ArticleDOI
MicroRNA expression profiles of neuron-derived extracellular vesicles in plasma from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Masataka Katsu,Yuka Hama,Jun Utsumi,Ken Takashina,Hiroshi Yasumatsu,Fumiaki Mori,Koichi Wakabayashi,Mikio Shoji,Hidenao Sasaki +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that miRNAs extracted from neuron-derived EVs in plasma reflect miRNA alterations in the brain as potential biomarkers of ALS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of plasma microRNA expression changes in multiple system atrophy and Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Hsa-miR-671-5p was the first miRNA shown to be expressed differently between M SA-C and MSA-P in plasma, and Interestingly, the expression levels of hsa- miR-19b-3p and hSA-mi R-24-3P were positively correlated, indicating that these miRNAs may be involved in the same processes in PD pathogenesis.
