Article Abstract
Central nervous system myelomatosis is uncommon and is associated with a particularly poor prognosis. PET images, from a 53-year-old man referred to a fully digital F-FDG PET for relapsed multiple myeloma, revealed high F-FDG uptakes located in the cortex and sulci of the right central area and within the meningeal envelopes of the cerebellum, the trigeminal nerves, and on the spinal canal. These particular uptakes gave evidence of a central nervous system myelomatosis subsequently confirmed by plasma cells documented in cerebrospinal fluid. Such interesting images could be obtained owing to the potential of high-resolution images provided by fully digital F-FDG PET.

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a significant cause of developmental disorders and permanent central nervous system damage, with functional recovery closely linked to myelin sheath integrity. This study aimed to analyze the expression of pH and the voltage-gated proton channel (Hv1) in the brains of neonatal pigs with HIE at various time points, alongside changes in myelin-related proteins. MRI was employed to localize the basal ganglia and assess pH changes post-hypoxia-ischemia, while immunofluorescence staining was used to evaluate Hv1, myelin basic protein (MBP), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), and myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG).

Oligodendrocytes, the myelinating cells of the central nervous system (CNS), are essential for the formation of myelin sheaths and pivotal for maintaining axonal integrity and conduction. Disruption of these cells and the myelin sheaths they produce is a hallmark of demyelinating conditions like multiple sclerosis or those resulting from certain drug side effects, leading to profound neurological impairments. In this study, we created a human brain organoid comprising neurons, astrocytes, and myelinating oligodendrocytes.

IFN-β, a type I interferon, has been used as a first-line therapy for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) for more than 30 years; however, the cellular and molecular basis of its therapeutic efficacy remains unclear. Here, we first used experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a mouse model for MS, to show that the therapeutic effects of IFN-β were associated with a down-regulation of microRNA-21 (miR-21) and pathogenic T17 (pT17) cells. In vitro experiments demonstrated that genetic knockout of miR-21 directly inhibited pathogenic T17 cell differentiation.

Central nervous system (CNS) diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases, stroke, brain tumors, and others, result in poor quality of life and can cause substantial disability. Not all CNS diseases are amenable to surgical approaches, so drug development is important for disease treatment. Unfortunately, there are few drugs currently available for CNS diseases.

Neuroinflammation within the central nervous system (CNS) is recognized as a critical pathological process in meningitic Escherichia coli (E. coli) infection, leading to severe neurodegenerative disorders and long-term sequelae. Astrocyte reactivity plays a pivotal role in driving the neuroinflammatory cascade in response to pathological stimuli from peripheral sources or other cellular components of the CNS.
