[Long-term courses of anxiety disorders].

Background: At present there is no comprehensive overview of the long-term development of the clinical picture, disease-associated impairments and neurobiological correlates of anxiety disorders as well as what influence certain risk factors and treatment have on the prognosis.

Objective: This article presents findings regarding disorder-specific symptoms and disorder-associated changes in the areas of functional level, quality of life, neurocognitive performance and structural brain anatomy over the lifespan. It also reports on how patient-related and environment-related aspects as well as guideline-oriented therapy influence the course of the disorder.

Spatio-temporal transcriptomics of chromothriptic SHH-medulloblastoma identifies multiple genetic clones that resist treatment and drive relapse.

Paediatric medulloblastomas with chromothripsis are characterised by high genomic instability and are among the tumours with the worst prognosis. However, the molecular makeup and the determinants of the aggressiveness of chromothriptic medulloblastoma are not well understood. Here, we apply spatial transcriptomics to profile a cohort of 13 chromothriptic and non-chromothriptic medulloblastomas from the same molecular subgroup.

Assessment of Tumor Cell Invasion and Radiotherapy Response in Experimental Glioma by Magnetic Resonance Elastography.

Background: Gliomas are highly invasive brain neoplasms. MRI is the most important tool to diagnose and monitor glioma but has shortcomings. In particular, the assessment of tumor cell invasion is insufficient.

Microglia depletion leads to increased susceptibility to ocular hypertension-dependent glaucoma.

In recent years, microglia have been highlighted for playing integral roles in neurodegenerative diseases, like glaucoma. To better understand the role of microglia during chronic ocular hypertension, we depleted microglia from aged (9-12 months old) DBA/2 J (D2) mice, which exhibit age-related increases in intraocular pressure, using a dietary CSF1R antagonist, PLX5622. Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) somas were counted, and optic nerve cross-sections stained and assessed for glaucomatous damage.
