Genetics of Dravet Syndrome and its Targeted Therapy by Nanomedicine: A Roadmap for Future Treatment of Drug Resistant Seizures
Curr Mol Pharmacol. 2022 Aug 19. doi: 10.2174/1874467215666220819143105. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), epilepsy is the 4th most prevalent neurological disorder after migraine, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease. There are numerous types of epileptic syndrome that are reported in children; one of them is Dravet syndrome. It is a neurological disorder of infants' outset during the first year of life. Dravet syndrome is a genetically determined syndrome and the most studied form of genetic epilepsy. Nearly 70-80% of its cases are due to genetic alterations in the SCN1A gene, and ...

Lipid Lowering Therapy: An Era Beyond Statins
Curr Probl Cardiol. 2022 Jul 30:101342. doi: 10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2022.101342. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDyslipidemia, specifically elevated LDL cholesterol levels, causes atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and increases the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Statins, a class of drugs that exert their effects by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in the synthesis of cholesterol, have been the mainstay of therapy for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease and lipids reduction. Statins are associated with side effects, most commonly myopathy and myalgias, despite their proven efficacy....

Genes, Vol. 13, Pages 978: Stroke and Etiopathogenesis: What Is Known?
Conclusion: We summarize the latest evidence and perspectives of ischemic stroke genetics that may be of interest to the physician and useful for day-to-day clinical work in terms of both prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke.

Po-626-03 preclinical safety of adkcnh2-g628s for post-op af
Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) occurs in 30% of cardiac surgeries, increasing risk of stroke, MI, and death. We propose gene therapy with an adenovirus encoding the G628S mutation of KCNH2 (AdKCNH2-G628S) to prevent POAF. We have reported preclinical efficacy in pigs.

Genes, Vol. 13, Pages 144: Influence of Haptoglobin Polymorphism on Stroke in Sickle Cell Disease Patients
vain Doré This review outlines the current clinical research investigating how the haptoglobin (Hp) genetic polymorphism and stroke occurrence are implicated in sickle cell disease (SCD) pathophysiology. Hp is a blood serum glycoprotein responsible for binding and removing toxic free hemoglobin from the vasculature. The role of Hp in patients with SCD is critical in combating blood toxicity, inflammation, oxidative stress, and even stroke. Ischemic stroke occurs when a blocked vessel decreases oxygen delivery in the blood to cerebral tissue and is commonly associated with SCD. Due to the malformed red blood cells of s...

Nanoparticle mediated gene therapy: a trailblazer armament to fight CNS disorders
Curr Med Chem. 2022 Jan 5. doi: 10.2174/0929867329666220105122318. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCentral nervous system (CNS) disorders account for boundless socioeconomic burdens with devastating effects among the population, especially the elderly. The major symptoms of these disorders are neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, and cognitive dysfunction caused by inherited genetic mutations or by genetic and epigenetic changes due to injury, environmental factors, and disease-related events. Currently available clinical treatment for CNS diseases, i.e., Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and brain tumor hav...

Genes, Vol. 13, Pages 48: Ischemic Stroke Genetics: What Is New and How to Apply It in Clinical Practice?
Jatužis The etiology of ischemic stroke is multifactorial. Although receiving less emphasis, genetic causes make a significant contribution to ischemic stroke genesis, especially in early-onset stroke. Several stroke classification systems based on genetic information corresponding to various stroke phenotypes were proposed. Twin and family history studies, as well as candidate gene approach, are common methods to discover genetic causes of stroke, however, both have their own limitations. Genome-wide association studies and next generation sequencing are more efficient, promising and increasingly used for daily diagn...
