The authors examined the nervous system in 12 patients with intracranial dissemination of an adolescent angiofibroma of the brain basis. It was possible to depict signs of a lesion of some cranial nerves and the brain stem as well as x-ray confirmation of a bone destruction in the brain basis. The found changes were connected with the direct influence of the angiofibroma on the above mentioned structures.

Novel De Novo Intronic Variant of SYNGAP1 Associated With the Neurodevelopmental Disorders.

Mol Genet Genomic Med

February 2025

Department of Chemistry and Molecular Biology, Gothenburg University, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Background: SYNGAP1 encodes a Ras/Rap GTPase-activating protein that is predominantly expressed in the brain with the functional roles in regulating synaptic plasticity, spine morphogenesis, and cognition function. Pathogenic variants in SYNGAP1 have been associated with a spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, epilepsy, hypotonia, and the features of autism spectrum disorder. The aim of this study was to identify a novel SYNGAP1 gene variant linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and to evaluate the pathogenicity of the detected variant.

As the main inhibitory neurotransmission system, the GABAergic system poses an interesting yet underutilized target for molecular brain imaging. While PET imaging of postsynaptic GABAergic neurons has been accomplished using radiolabeled benzodiazepines targeting the GABA receptor, the development of presynaptic radioligands targeting GABA transporter 1 (GAT1) has been unsuccessful thus far. Therefore, we developed a novel GAT1-addressing radioligand and investigated its applicability as a PET tracer in rodents.

Gliomas are the most common lethal tumors of the brain associated with a poor prognosis and increased resistance to chemo-radiotherapy. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), newly identified noncoding RNAs, have appeared as critical regulators of therapeutic resistance among multiple cancers and gliomas. Since circRNAs are aberrantly expressed in glioma and may act as promoters or inhibitors of therapeutic resistance, we categorized alterations of these specific RNAs expression in therapy resistant-glioma in three different classes, including chemoresistance, radioresistance, and glioma stem cell (GSC)-regulation.

Symptom-based depression subtypes: brain dynamic specificity and its association with gene expression profiles.

Transl Psychiatry

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Shenzhen Nanshan People's Hospital, Taoyuan AVE 89, Nanshan district, Shenzhen, 518000, People's Republic of China.

At least 227 combinations of symptoms meet the criteria for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). However, in clinical practice, patients consistently present symptoms in a regular rather than random manner, and the neural basis underlying the MDD subtypes remains unclear. To help clarify the neural basis, patients with MDD were clustered by symptom combinations to investigate the neural underpinning of each subtype using functional resonance imaging (fMRI).

Toward cognitive models of misophonia.

Hear Res

January 2025

Department of Psychology, Concordia University, Montreal, QC, Canada; International Laboratory for Brain, Music and Sound Research (BRAMS), Montreal, QC, Canada; Centre for Research on Brain, Language and Music (CRBLM), Montreal, QC, Canada. Electronic address:

Misophonia is a disorder in which specific common sounds such as another person breathing or chewing, or the ticking of a clock, cause an atypical negative emotional response. Affected individuals may experience anger, irritability, annoyance, disgust, and anxiety, as well as physiological autonomic responses, and may find everyday environments and contexts to be unbearable in which their 'misophonic stimuli' (often called 'trigger sounds') are present. Misophonia is gradually being recognized as a genuine problem that causes significant distress and has negative consequences for individuals and their families.
