Over two decades ago, increased levels of RNA oxidation were reported in postmortem patients with ALS, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases. Interestingly, not all cell types and transcripts were equally oxidized. Furthermore, it was shown that RNA oxidation is an early phenomenon, altogether indicating that oxidative RNA damage could be a driver, and not a consequence, of disease.

Purpose: Error related to incorrect use of rating scales is problematic in the assessment and treatment of dysarthria. The main purpose of this project was to determine scale fit for cardinal speech features of hypokinetic dysarthria. A secondary aim was to determine rater reliability for the two different scales explored.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by the progressive and selective loss of dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons in the midbrain. The replacement of neuromelanin (NM)-containing DAergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the enhancement of NM concentration could offer a promising and safe approach to treating PD symptoms. The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the potential of human periapical-cysts mesenchymal stem cells (hPCy-MSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to differentiate into DAergic NM-producing neurons and to generate functional 3-dimensional (3D) midbrain-like organoids in vitro.
