Objective
Despite the increasing number of genes associated with Charcot–Marie‐Tooth (CMT) disease, many patients currently still lack appropriate genetic diagnosis for this disease. Autosomal dominant mutations in aminoacyl‐tRNA synthetases (ARSs) have been implicated in CMT. Here, we describe causal missense mutations in the gene encoding seryl‐tRNA synthetase 1 (SerRS) for 3 families affected...
Objective
Accumulation of α‐synuclein (α‐syn) in neurons is a prominent feature of Parkinson's disease (PD). Recently, researchers have considered that extracellular vesicles (EVs) may play an important role in protein exportation and propagation, and α‐syn‐containing EVs derived from the central nervous system (CNS) have been detected in peripheral blood. However, mechanistic insights into CNS‐derived...
