Overview of Fatal Familial Insomnia

Most recent studies have shown that Fatal Familial Insomnia shares some biological mechanisms with ataxia, atrophy, creutzfeldt-jakob-disease, creutzfeldt-jakob-disease-familial, dementia, dysautonomia, encephalopathies, encephalopathy-bovine-spongiform, gerstmann-straussler-scheinker-disease, gliosis, kuru, neurodegenerative-disorders, new-variant-creutzfeldt-jakob-disease, pain, prion-diseases, scrapie, sleep-disorders, sleep-initiation-and-maintenance-disorders, sleeplessness.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Fatal Familial Insomnia, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aging, Apoptotic Process, Cell Death, Cell Division, Cellular Homeostasis, Circadian Rhythm, Glycosylation, Immune Response, Mating, Menstruation, Pathogenesis, Phagocytosis, Programmed Cell Death, Secretion, Secretory Pathway, Swimming, Translation, Transport, Tropism, Virulence

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Fatal Familial Insomnia, such as ABCB6, C4BPA, CARD14, CSF2, F2R, GSS, LAMC2, MAPT, PLN, PRDX2, PRNP, TFRC, TMEFF2, TXNRD1, TXNRD2, YWHAQ.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
