Treatment guidelines for rare, early-onset conditions associated with epileptic seizures: a literature review on Rett syndrome and tuberous sclerosis complex
Rett syndrome (RTT) and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) are two rare disorders presenting with a range of different epileptic seizures. Seizure management requires careful therapy selection, thereby necessita... (Source: Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases)

Hyperactive mTORC1 in lung mesenchyme induces endothelial cell dysfunction and pulmonary vascular remodeling
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a progressive cystic lung disease caused by tuberous sclerosis complex 1/2 (TSC1/2) gene mutations in pulmonary mesenchymal cells, resulting in activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). A subset of patients with LAM develop pulmonary vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension. Little, however, is known regarding how LAM cells communicate with endothelial cells (ECs) to trigger vascular remodeling. In end-stage LAM lung explants, we identified EC dysfunction characterized by increased EC proliferation and migration, defective angiogenesis, and dysmorphic endo...

Identification of hub genes significantly linked to tuberous sclerosis related-epilepsy and lipid metabolism via bioinformatics analysis
ConclusionsOur research unveiled potential DELMRGs (ALOX12B, CBS, CPT1C and DAGLB) in TSE, which may provide new ideas for studying the psathogenesis of epilepsy. (Source: Frontiers in Neurology)

Prevention of epileptogenesis - are we there yet?
Curr Opin Neurol. 2024 Feb 13. doi: 10.1097/WCO.0000000000001256. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: To review recent progress in preventing epileptogenesis in patients with epilepsy.RECENT FINDINGS: The recent success of epilepsy prevention and disease modification in tuberous sclerosis using simple EEG biomarkers to guide treatment initiation, and the identification of biomarkers to enrich the targeted patient population has made clinical trials of epilepsy prevention after acquired central nervous system (CNS) insults such as traumatic brain injury, stroke or infection both feasible and timely. Two such tr...

Altered expression of the Plexin-B2 system in tuberous sclerosis complex and focal cortical dysplasia IIb lesions
In conclusion, our results showed the Plexin-B2-Sema4C system was abnormally expressed in cortical lesions of TSC and FCD IIb patients, signifying that the Plexin-B2-Sema4C system may play a role in the pathogenic development of TSC and FCD IIb.PMID:38293776 | DOI:10.14670/HH-18-707 (Source: Histology and Histopathology)

The science of uncertainty guides fetal-neonatal neurology principles and practice: diagnostic-prognostic opportunities and challenges
Fetal-neonatal neurologists (FNNs) consider diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic decisions strengthened by interdisciplinary collaborations. Bio-social perspectives of the woman’s health influence evaluations of maternal-placental-fetal (MPF) triad, neonate, and child. A dual cognitive process integrates “fast thinking-slow thinking” to reach shared decisions that minimize bias and maintain trust. Assessing the science of uncertainty with uncertainties in science improves diagnostic choices across the developmental-aging continuum. Three case vignettes highlight challenges that illustrate this approach. The first ...
