Rett syndrome: the bcl-2 gene--a mediator of neurotrophic mechanisms?

Abstract:

:Rett syndrome affects young girls. The molecular basis is mysterious. One tenable hypothesis can be that the programmed early infantile death of neuronal cells is reprogrammed. The bcl-2 gene on chromosome 22 has been shown to play a role in the apoptosis process. No sequence abnormalities were detected in the bcl-2 gene of 6 patients with Rett syndrome which could explain the pathophysiology of Rett syndrome.

  • Japanese Encephalitis Virus-Induced Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

    abstract::Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (anti-NMDARe) was originally described as a paraneoplastic disease with more than 50% cases involving a tumor. However, tumor incidence in anti-NMDARe in children is much lower. Herpes simplex virus-induced anti-NMDARe has been well-described; however, findings on Japane...
