Beta-propeller protein-associated neurodegeneration (BPAN) is a rare X-linked neurodegenerative disorder primarily caused by mutations in the WD repeat domain 45 (WDR45) gene. While WDR45 has traditionally been linked to autophagy, our study uncovers a previously unrecognized role for WDR45 as a cri...

Microglia are the brain’s resident immune cells, essential for homeostasis and implicated in common neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease (PD), where their early activation and sustained inflammatory mediator release precede neuronal loss. By contrast, their contributio...

Beta-propeller Protein Associated Neurodegeneration (BPAN) is a devastating neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disease linked to variants in WDR45. Currently, there is no cure or disease altering treatment for this disease. This is, in part, due to a lack of insight into early phenotypes of BP...
