Abstract Neuropsychiatric abnormalities may be broadly divided in two categories: disorders of mood, affect, and behavior affecting cognition. Among these conditions, clinical depression, anxiety neurocognitive are the most common multiple sclerosis (MS), with a substantial impact on patients’ quality life adherence to treatments. Such manifestations occur from earliest phases disease but become more frequent MS patients progressive course severe disability. Although pathogenesis neuropsychiatric has not been fully defined yet, brain structural functional abnormalities, consistently observed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), together genetic immunologic factors, have suggested key players. Even though detrimental such is matter crucial importance, at present, they often overlooked setting. Moreover, efficacy pharmacologic non-pharmacologic approaches for their amelioration poorly investigated, majority studies showing marginal or no beneficial effect different therapeutic approaches, possibly due presence heterogeneous underlying pathological mechanisms intrinsic methodological limitations. A better evaluation setting improvements understanding pathophysiology offer potential develop tools differentiating individual ultimately provide principled basis treatment selection. This review provides an updated overview regarding symptoms MS, MRI characteristics that associated mood (i.e., depression anxiety) cognitive impairment, currently available under investigation.

Summary

Decades of research have identified genetic factors and biochemical pathways involved in neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). We present evidence for the following eight hallmarks NDD: pathological protein aggregation, synaptic neuronal network dysfunction, aberrant proteostasis, cytoskeletal abnormalities, altered energy homeostasis, DNA RNA defects, inflammation, cell death. describe hallmarks, their biomarkers, interactions as a framework to study NDDs using holistic approach. The can serve basis defining pathogenic mechanisms, categorizing different based on primary stratifying patients within specific NDD, designing multi-targeted, personalized therapies effectively halt NDDs.

The immune system of the central nervous (CNS) consists primarily innate cells. These are highly specialized macrophages found either in parenchyma, called microglia, or at CNS interfaces, such as leptomeningeal, perivascular, and choroid plexus macrophages. While they were thought phagocytes, their function extends well beyond simple removal cell debris during development diseases. Brain-resident cells to be plastic, long-lived, host an outstanding number risk genes for multiple pathologies. As a result, now considered most suitable targets modulating Additionally, recent single-cell technologies enhanced our molecular understanding origins, fates, interactomes, functional statesduring health perturbation.

Historically, multiple sclerosis (MS) has been viewed as being primarily driven by T cells. However, the effective use of anti-CD20 treatment now also reveals an important role for B cells in MS patients. The results from this put forward T-cell activation rather than antibody production a driving force behind MS. main question how their interaction provokes both and to infiltrate CNS cause local pathology remains be answered.

Abstract Although stem cell-based therapy has demonstrated considerable potential to manage certain diseases more successfully than conventional surgery, it nevertheless comes with inescapable drawbacks that might limit its clinical translation. Compared cells, cell-derived exosomes possess numerous advantages, such as non-immunogenicity, non-infusion toxicity, easy access, effortless preservation, and freedom from tumorigenic ethical issues. Exosomes can inherit similar therapeutic effects their parental cells embryonic adult through vertical delivery of pluripotency or multipotency. After a thorough search meticulous dissection relevant literature the last five years, we present this comprehensive, up-to-date, specialty-specific disease-oriented review highlight surgical application exosomes. derived (e.g., embryonic, induced pluripotent, hematopoietic, mesenchymal, neural, endothelial cells) are capable treating encountered in orthopedic neurosurgery, plastic general cardiothoracic urology, head neck ophthalmology, obstetrics gynecology.

Recent evidence has shown the existence of a CNS 'waste clearance' system, defined as glymphatic system. Glymphatic abnormalities have been described in several neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. function not thoroughly explored multiple sclerosis, where processes are intermingled with inflammatory processes. We aimed to investigate system sclerosis evaluate its association clinical disability, disease course, demyelination neurodegeneration, quantified using different MRI techniques.

All subjects underwent neurological assessment high-resolution T1, T2 double inversion recovery sequences, diffusion susceptibility weighted imaging. calculated along perivascular space index, proxy for function, cortical deep grey matter volume, white lesion volume normal-appearing microstructural damage.
