Pathogenetic mechanisms of hepatic encephalopathy
TL;DR: Oxidised RNA species, which are formed in response to oxidative stress, also participate in local postsynaptic protein synthesis in neurons, which is required for memory formation, and bear a potential biochemical explanation for the multiple alterations of neurotransmitter receptor systems and of synaptic plasticity.
