α-Synucleinopathies constitute a spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD), Lewy body dementia (LBD), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), and Alzheimer's disease concurrent with LBD (AD-LBD). These disorders are unified by a pathological hallmark: aberrant misfolding and accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn). This review delves into the pivotal role of α-syn, the key agent in α-synucleinopathy pathophysiology, and provides a survey of potential therapeutics that target cell-to-cell spread of pathologic α-syn.

Infertile women may request to embark on a new course of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) in pursuit of a second child while still breastfeeding their first child. Breastfeeding is a time of profound hormonal changes that may interfere with ovarian physiology and uterine receptivity. Prolactin and oxytocin can mediate a plethora of potential detrimental effects.

Purpose Of Review: Traditionally viewed as a passive player in circulation, the right ventricle (RV) has become a pivotal force in hemodynamics. RV failure (RVF) is a recognized complication of primary cardiac and pulmonary vascular disorders and is associated with a poor prognosis. Unlike treatments for left ventricular failure (LVF), strategies such as adrenoceptor signaling inhibition and renin-angiotensin system modulation have shown limited success in RVF.

Nystagmus has various clinical manifestations, including downbeat, upbeat, and torsional types, each associated with distinct neurologic features. Current rehabilitative interventions focusing on fixation training and optical correction often fail to achieve complete resolution. When nystagmus coexists with fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), functional impairments worsen, particularly affecting balance.

Immunoinformatics, an integrative field consisting of bioinformatics and immunology, has showcased its potential in addressing zoonotic diseases, as evidenced during the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, its application in livestock health remains largely untapped. This opinion commentary explores how immunoinformatics, combined with advancements in genomics, multi-omics integration, and genome editing technologies, can revolutionize livestock management by enhancing disease resistance, vaccine development, and productivity.
