J. Neurochem.(2012) 120, 644–659. Abstract S100B is a calcium‐binding protein
concentrated in glial cells, although it has also been detected in definite extra‐neural cell …

Developmental dyslexia is a highly heritable disorder with a prevalence of at least 5% in
school-aged children. Linkage studies have identified numerous loci throughout the genome …

Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that can, at least partly, be mimicked
by the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine. S100B is a calcium …

S100B belongs to a multigenic family of Ca2+‐binding proteins of the EF‐hand type and is
expressed in high abundance in the brain. S100B interacts with target proteins within cells …

amyotrophic lateral sclerosis share common pathophysiological features and involve …

Individuals with epilepsy are at increased risk of having psychotic symptoms that resemble
those of schizophrenia. More controversial and less searched is if schizophrenia is a risk …

The exact etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains obscure, lacking effective diagnostic
and prognostic biomarkers. In search of novel molecular factors that may contribute to PD …

Neurological symptoms have been often reported in COVID-19 disease. In the present
study, we evaluated brain damage associated with the increase of serum levels of …
