Summaries for Cerebral Degeneration

About this section
Disease Ontology : 12 A brain disease that is characterized by loss of structure or function of neurons, including death of neurons and loss of brain tissue.

MalaCards based summary : Cerebral Degeneration, also known as degenerative brain disorder, is related to leukodystrophy and mitochondrial dna depletion syndrome 4a. An important gene associated with Cerebral Degeneration is NOTCH3 (Notch Receptor 3), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Translation Factors and Peroxisome. The drugs Glucagon and Triamcinolone have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, liver and cortex, and related phenotypes are no effect and behavior/neurological
