Open AccessMulticenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study of mogamulizumab with open-label extension study in a minimum number of patients with human T-cell leukemia virus type-1-associated myelopathy
Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease. This multicenter, randomized phase 3 study evaluated the efficac...

Open AccessSystematic reduction of gray matter volume in anorexia nervosa, but relative enlargement with clinical symptoms in the prefrontal and posterior insular cortices: a multicenter neuroimaging study
Although brain morphological abnormalities have been reported in anorexia nervosa (AN), the reliability and reproducibility of previous studies were limited due to insufficient sample sizes, which prevented ex...

Open AccessOptic radiation atrophy in Lewy body disease with visual hallucination on phase difference enhanced magnetic resonance images
Visual hallucinations (VH) occur commonly in Lewy body disease (LBD), including Parkinson’s disease (PD), PD with dementia, and dementia with Lewy bodies. We aimed to use phase difference enhanced imaging (PAD...

Open AccessRapid and comprehensive diagnostic method for repeat expansion diseases using nanopore sequencing
We developed a diagnostic method for repeat expansion diseases using a long-read sequencer to improve currently available, low throughput diagnostic methods. We employed the real-time target enrichment system ...

Open AccessCSF GAP-43 as a biomarker of synaptic dysfunction is associated with tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease
To test whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) growth-associated protein 43 (GAP-43) concentration is elevated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia and its associations with other hallmarks of AD, we examined the C...

Open AccessSrc inhibition attenuates polyglutamine-mediated neuromuscular degeneration in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy
Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is a neuromuscular disease caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the androgen receptor (AR) gene. Here, we perform a comprehensive analysis of signaling pathways in a mo...

Open AccessTandem-genotypes: robust detection of tandem repeat expansions from long DNA reads
Tandemly repeated DNA is highly mutable and causes at least 31 diseases, but it is hard to detect pathogenic repeat expansions genome-wide. Here, we report robust detection of human repeat expansions from care...

Open AccessNeural correlates of body comparison and weight estimation in weight-recovered anorexia nervosa: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study
The neural mechanisms underlying body dissatisfaction and emotional problems evoked by social comparisons in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) are currently unclear. Here, we elucidate patterns of brain acti...

Open AccessSystemic overexpression of SQSTM1/p62 accelerates disease onset in a SOD1H46R-expressing ALS mouse model
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by a selective loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Recent studies have shown that mutations in SQSTM1 are linked to ...

Open AccessFUS/TLS acts as an aggregation-dependent modifier of polyglutamine disease model mice
FUS/TLS is an RNA/DNA-binding protein associated with neurodegenerative diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Previously, we found that a prion-like domain in ...
