In the present study, we analyzed the involvement of PrPC in different pathological mechanisms underlying AD: the processing of the amyloid-beta protein precursor (A beta PP) and its interaction with A beta PP, tau, and different phosphorylated forms of the tau protein (p-tau). The effect of PrPC on tau expression was investigated in various cellular compartments using a HEK293 cell model expressing a tau mutant (3PO-tau) or wild type (WT)-tau. We could show that PrPC reduces A beta PP cleavage, leading to decreased levels of A beta(40) and sA beta PP without changing the protein expression of A beta PP, beta-secretase, or gamma-secretase. Tau and its phosphorylated forms were identified as interactions partners for PrPC, raising the question as to whether PrPC might also be involved in tau pathology. Overexpression of PrPC in PRNP and 3PO-tau transfected cells resulted in a reduction of 3PO-tau and p-tau as well as a decrease of 3PO-tau-related toxicity. In addition, we used the transgenic PrPC knockout (Prnp0/0) mouse line to study the dynamics of tau phosphorylation, an important pathological hallmark in the pathogenesis of AD in vivo. There, an effect of PrPC on tau expression could be observed under oxidative stress conditions but not during aging. In summary, we provide further evidence for interactions of PrPC with proteins that are known to be the key players in AD pathogenesis. We identified tau and its phosphorylated forms as potential PrP-interactors and report a novel protective function of PrPC in AD-like tau pathology."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3233/JAD-130566"],["dc.identifier.gro","3142228"],["dc.identifier.isi","000327598500009"],["dc.identifier.pmid","24028865"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/10657"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5954"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1875-8908"],["dc.relation.issn","1387-2877"],["dc.rights","CC BY 3.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0"],["dc.title","Impact of the Cellular Prion Protein on Amyloid-beta and 3PO-Tau Processing"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Case presentation We report a case of a 47-year-old Caucasian woman without rheumatoid arthritis who reported pain and palsy in her left leg almost one year after total hip replacement. She was diagnosed with an ileopectineal bursitis after total hip replacement, leading to femoral nerve palsy. The diagnosis was obtained by thorough clinical examination, the results of focused computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of non-infectious ileopectineal bursitis in a patient without rheumatoid arthritis as a complication of total hip replacement. This rare case underlines the importance of proper neurologic examination of persistent conditions after orthopedic intervention in otherwise healthy individuals.

We aimed to analyse the impact of pathologies detected by echocardiography and ECG monitoring on therapeutic decisions and prognosis. METHODS: Find-AFRANDOMISED was a prospective multicenter study which randomised 398 acute ischemic stroke patients ≥ 60 years to enhanced and prolonged Holter-ECG monitoring or usual stroke unit care. This substudy compared therapeutic consequences of echocardiography and routine Holter-ECG or enhanced and prolonged Holter-ECG monitoring, respectively, and prognosis of patients with or without pathologic findings in echocardiography or Holter-ECG monitoring. RESULTS: 50.3% received enhanced and prolonged Holter-ECG monitoring and 49.7% routine ECG monitoring. 82.9% underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), 38.9% transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and 25.6% both procedures. 14/89 TEE pathologies and 1/90 TTE pathology led to a change in therapy, resulting in a number needed to change decision (NNCD) of 12 and 330 (p < 0.001), respectively. In comparison, enhanced and prolonged Holter-ECG monitoring found atrial fibrillation (AF) in 27 of 200 patients, and routine ECG monitoring in twelve of 198 patients, leading to therapeutic changes in all patients (NNCD 8 and 17, respectively, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Most changes in therapeutic decisions were triggered by enhanced and prolonged Holter-ECG monitoring, which should therefore play a more prominent role in future guidelines. Echocardiography identifies a patient group at high cardiovascular risk, but rarely result in therapeutic changes. Whether this patient group requires further cardiovascular workup remains unknown.

Conclusions Applying a recombinant tissue plasminogen activator after antagonizing dabigatran with idarucizumab is feasible and easy to manage in an emergency room or stroke unit.

We aimed to evaluate prospectively whether natriuretic peptide levels and kinetics identify patients with paroxysmal AF. Methods: Patients with acute cerebral ischemia were included into the prospective observational Find-AF study. N-terminal pro brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro atrial-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proANP) plasma levels were measured on admission, after 6 and 24 hours. Patients free from AF at presentation received 7 day Holter monitoring. We prospectively hypothesized that patients presenting in sinus rhythm with NT-proBNP>median were more likely to have paroxysmal AF than patients with NT-proBNPmedian (239 pg/ml), 17.9% had paroxysmal AF in contrast to 7.4% with NT-proBNP<239 pg/ml (p = 0.025). The ratio of early (0 h) to late (24 h) plasma levels of NT-proBNP showed no difference between both groups. For the detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, BNP, NT-proBNP and NT-proANP at admission had an area under the curve in ROC analysis of 0.747 (0.663-0.831), 0.638 (0.531-0.744) and 0.663 (0.566-0.761), respectively. In multivariate analysis, BNP was the only biomarker to be independently predictive for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

We present the first report of a rotigotine-induced dropped head sign in a patient with suspected idiopathic Parkinson’s disease, which was later defined as multiple system atrophy. The ‘dropped head sign’ is considered a rare symptom of unknown etiology in parkinsonian disorders, though a disproportionate antecollis is frequently observed in multiple system atrophy. It has also been described as a side effect of dopamine agonist medication with cabergoline and pramipexole. Rotigotine is a transdermally applied, non-ergot dopamine agonist, resulting in a continuous stimulation of dopamine receptors, which is widely used in the treatment of patients with Parkinson’s disease. Case presentation We report a case of a 64-year-old Caucasian woman with a rapidly progressive two-and-a-half-year history of a hypokinetic Parkinson’s syndrome with asymmetric development of symptoms and an initially good response to levodopa medication. Due to side effects of other dopamimetic medications the patient was switched to rotigotine medication five weeks before clinical admission. Progressive antecollis without muscle weakness and prominent paraspinal muscle contraction developed within two weeks of treatment and resolved within a week after discontinuation of rotigotine and initiation of levodopa/cabergoline medication. Conclusion While the pathophysiology still remains unresolved, this case supports the concept of a dopaminergic imbalance as a cause of certain axial dystonias like disproportionate antecollis including the ‘dropped head sign’. We believe this case is specifically useful for neurologists and general practitioners, as the easily recognizable symptom should prompt a thorough reevaluation of diagnosis and medication in patients with Parkinson’s disease."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/1752-1947-7-174"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/9137"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/12913"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","GRO-Li-Import"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.doi","10.1186/1752-1947-7-174"],["dc.relation.issn","1752-1947"],["dc.relation.issn","1752-1947"],["dc.rights","CC BY 2.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0"],["dc.title","Dropped head sign induced by transdermal application of the dopamine agonist rotigotine in parkinsonian syndrome: a case report"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
