Abstract The global north is facing an unprecedented rise in the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases. increasing incidence Parkinson's disease being referred to as a pandemic. reason for enormous increase only partly understood. Lifestyle factors are known play role, but they alone cannot account surge. One factor that—although recognized important—has not been explored detail so far influence circadian rhythms. Sleep and rhythm disruption key neurodegeneration, their occurrence during early stages suggests causal role pathogenesis. Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) has identified prodromal state α‐synucleinopathies, such disease, Lewy body dementia, multiple system atrophy offering window insights into development these Even though REM most pronounced, driven modulated by timing system, specific abnormalities have described iRBD. Novel experimental clinical approaches exploiting molecular circuitry underlying timekeeping hold promise disentangle some pathophysiologic mechanisms α‐synucleinopathies. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on disruptions α‐synucleinopathies with emphasis aspects therapeutic potentials. These might contribute our understanding pathogenesis diseases may allow interventions addressing disturbed at stage disease.

Abstract Purpose Despite extensive research, mechanisms regulating postnatal eye growth and those responsible for ametropias are poorly understood. With the marked recent increases in myopia prevalence, robust biologically‐based clinical therapies to normalize refractive development childhood needed. Here, we review classic contemporary literature about how circadian biology might provide clues develop a framework improve understanding of etiology, possibly lead rational approaches ameliorate errors developing children. Recent findings Increasing evidence implicates diurnal rhythms error development. In both humans animals, ocular length other anatomical physiological features undergo oscillations. Systemically, such primarily generated by ‘master clock’ surpachiasmatic nucleus, which receives input from intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ip RGC s) through activation photopigment melanopsin. The retina also has an endogenous clock. laboratory animals experimental myopia, oscillations parameters perturbed. Retinal signaling is now believed influence development; dopamine, important neurotransmitter found retina, not only entrains intrinsic light:dark cycle, but it modulates Circadian clocks comprise transcription/translation feedback control mechanism utilizing so‐called clock genes that have been associated with ametropias.

The retina, which processes visual information and sends it to the brain, is an excellent model for studying neural circuitry. It has been probed extensively ex vivo but refractory chronic in electrophysiology. We report a nonsurgical method achieve chronically stable recordings from single retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) awake mice. developed noncoaxial intravitreal injection scheme injected mesh electronics unrolls inside eye conformally coats highly curved retina without compromising normal functions. allows 16-channel multiple types of RGCs with responses stimuli at least 2 weeks, reveals circadian rhythms RGC over day/night cycles.

Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS) and Autoimmune Disorder Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) are conditions that impair brain normal neurologic function, resulting in the sudden onset of tics, obsessive compulsive disorder, other behavioral symptoms. Recent studies have emphasized crosstalk between gut brain, highlighting how composition can influence behavior functions. Thus, present study investigates relationship PANS/PANDAS microbiota ecology. The a cohort 30 patients was analyzed compared to control subjects using 16S rRNA-based metagenomics. Data were for their α β diversity; differences bacterial distribution detected by Wilcoxon LEfSe tests, while metabolic profile predicted via PICRUSt software. These analyses demonstrate presence an altered community structure respect controls. In particular, ecological analysis revealed two main clusters based on age range. avoid bias, data from controls split into groups: 4 8 years old > 9 old. younger group characterized strong increase Bacteroidetes; Bacteroides, Odoribacter, Oscillospira identified as potential microbial biomarkers this type.

Life on earth has evolved under the influence of regularly recurring changes in environment, such as 24 h light/dark cycle. Consequently, organisms have developed endogenous clocks, generating (circadian) rhythms that serve to anticipate these rhythmic changes. In addition circadian rhythms, which persist constant conditions and can be entrained environmental light drives behavior brain function, especially nocturnal laboratory rodents. recent decades, research made great advances elucidation molecular clockwork perception. This review summarizes role clock with a focus complex interaction between different components mammalian system.
