Abstract

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a neurodegenerative disease with potentially devastating and even deadly effects on affected individuals, was first described in the late nineteenth century. Although the survival of motor neuron (SMN) gene was identified nearly 2 decades ago to be causative of the disease, neither an effective treatment nor a cure are currently available. Yet efforts are on-going to test a multitude of treatment strategies with the potential to alleviate disease symptoms in human and clinical trials. Among the most studied compounds for the treatment of SMA are histone deacetylase inhibitors. Several of these epigenetic modifiers have been shown to increase expression of the crucial SMN gene in vitro and in vivo, an effect linked to increased histone acetylation and remodeling of the chromatin landscape surrounding the SMN gene promoter. Here, we review the history and current state of use of histone deacetylase inhibitors in SMA, as well as the success of clinical trials investigating the clinical applicability of these epigenetic modifiers in SMA treatment.

Hirnblutung unter DOAK und VKA ähnlich bedrohlich

17.05.2024 Direkte orale Antikoagulanzien Nachrichten

Kommt es zu einer nichttraumatischen Hirnblutung, spielt es keine große Rolle, ob die Betroffenen zuvor direkt wirksame orale Antikoagulanzien oder Marcumar bekommen haben: Die Prognose ist ähnlich schlecht.

Thrombektomie auch bei großen Infarkten von Vorteil

16.05.2024 Ischämischer Schlaganfall Nachrichten

Auch ein sehr ausgedehnter ischämischer Schlaganfall scheint an sich kein Grund zu sein, von einer mechanischen Thrombektomie abzusehen. Dafür spricht die LASTE-Studie, an der Patienten und Patientinnen mit einem ASPECTS von maximal 5 beteiligt waren.

Schwindelursache: Massagepistole lässt Otholiten tanzen

14.05.2024 Benigner Lagerungsschwindel Nachrichten

Wenn jüngere Menschen über ständig rezidivierenden Lagerungsschwindel klagen, könnte eine Massagepistole der Auslöser sein. In JAMA Otolaryngology warnt ein Team vor der Anwendung hochpotenter Geräte im Bereich des Nackens.

Schützt Olivenöl vor dem Tod durch Demenz?

10.05.2024 Morbus Alzheimer Nachrichten

Konsumieren Menschen täglich 7 Gramm Olivenöl, ist ihr Risiko, an einer Demenz zu sterben, um mehr als ein Viertel reduziert – und dies weitgehend unabhängig von ihrer sonstigen Ernährung. Dafür sprechen Auswertungen zweier großer US-Studien.
