Embracing monogenic Parkinson's disease: the MJFF Global Genetic PD Cohort
Vollstedt, Eva‐Juliane; Schaake, Susen; Lohmann, Katja; Padmanabhan, Shalini; Brice, Alexis; Lesage, Suzanne; Tesson, Christelle; Vidailhet, MarieBackground: As gene-targeted therapies are increasingly being developed for Parkinson's disease (PD), identifying and characterizing carriers of specific genetic pathogenic variants is imperative. Only a small fraction of the estimated number of subjects with monogenic PD worldwide are currently represented in the literature and availability of clinical data and clinical trial-ready cohorts is limited. Objectiv...
Neurofilaments in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3: blood biomarkers at the preata...
Wilke, Carlo; Haas, Eva; Reetz, Kathrin; Faber, Jennifer; Garcia-Moreno, Hector; Santana, Magda M.; van de Warrenburg, Bart; Hengel, HolgerWith molecular treatments coming into reach for spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), easily accessible, cross-species validated biomarkers for human and preclinical trials are warranted, particularly for the preataxic disease stage. We assessed serum levels of neurofilament light (NfL) and phosphorylated neurofilament heavy (pNfH) in ataxic and preataxic subjects of two independent multicentric SCA3 cohorts an...
