Altered Perivascular Fibroblast Activity Precedes ALS Disease Onset

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease of the motor neurons that eventually causes muscular atrophy, paralysis and death. There is currently no cure. The cause of ALS is only understood in the 5% to 10% of patients who have an inherited form of the disease. More...

Serum α-L-Fucosidase Activity Measured for COVID-19 Infection

An unusual fucosylated LacdiNAc in the receptor-binding domains of the spike protein of COVID-19 has been observed. Reduced fucosylation was also found in a specific Fc domain of IgG antibodies in COVID-19 patients that enhanced the interactions with the activating FcγR, FcγRIIIa. More...

Breath Test Determines Severity of Methylmalonic Acidemia Disease

Methylmalonic acidemia is a disorder in which the body cannot break down certain proteins and fats. The result is a buildup of a substance called methylmalonic acid in the blood. This condition is passed down through families and is one of several conditions called an "inborn error of metabolism." More...

Vitamin D Deficiency Linked to Metabolic Changes in Lupus Patients

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), is the most common type of lupus. SLE is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks its own tissues, causing widespread inflammation and tissue damage in the affected organs. It can affect the joints, skin, brain, lungs, kidneys, and blood vessels. More...
