Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Carla Andreia Teixeira"

  • - Carla Andreia Teixeira's research primarily focuses on Krabbe's disease, a genetic leukodystrophy characterized by demyelination and axonal degeneration, examining both the underlying mechanisms of neuropathology and potential therapeutic strategies.
  • - Key findings include early axonal loss in a mouse model (Twitcher mice) prior to demyelination and the potential of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells to ameliorate the axonal phenotype and neuropathology associated with the disease.
  • - The research highlights the challenges in developing effective therapies for leukodystrophies, emphasizing the significance of targeted approaches that address both central and peripheral nervous system involvement.
