Chidamide is a new subtype-selective histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), which has been approved for the treatment of recurrent or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in China. However, there are few studies about the application of chidamide in PTCL with central nervous system (CNS) involvement. It is essential to investigate the penetration of chidamide in the blood brain barrier (BBB). LC-MS methods were established firstly to determine the concentration of chidamide in rat plasma and CSF. Then five rats were anaesthetized and the plasma and CSF samples were collected at the time of 5, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 360 and 480 min after being administered 1 mg/kg chidamide by intravenous injection, respectively. All samples were analyzed with the established LC-MS method by using the precursor/product transitions (m/z) of 391.1/265.1 for chidamide and 441.1/138.2 for internal standard (IS). The PK parameters were calculated after both of the concentrations of chidamide in plasma and CSF were determined. The penetration ratio of chidamide in BBB ranged from 0.19% to 0.67%. Result indicated chidamide could pass through the BBB, enter into the CNS and have the potential to be utilized in PTCL with CNS involvement.

Background: Risk factors and mechanisms of cognitive impairment (CI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) are unclear. This study used a neuropsychological battery, MRI, ERP and CSF and plasma biomarkers to predict long-term cognitive impairment after aSAH.
Materials And Methods: 214 patients hospitalized with aSAH (n = 125) or unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA) (n = 89) were included in this prospective cohort study.

Rapid and accurate diagnostics are needed to effectively detect and treat primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) caused by (). Delayed diagnosis and similarities to other causes of meningitis contribute to a case mortality rate of >97%. Thus, there is an unmet medical need for a non-invasive liquid biopsy diagnostic method.

Background: The new criteria for Alzheimer's disease pave the way for the introduction of core blood biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (BBAD) into clinical practice. However, this depends on the demonstration of sufficient accuracy and robustness of BBADs in the intended population.
Objectives: To assess the diagnostic performance of core BBADs in our memory clinic, comparing them with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis.

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy caused by clonally expanded plasma cells that produce a monoclonal immunoglobulin (M-protein), a personalized biomarker. Recently, we developed an ultra-sensitive mass spectrometry method to quantify minimal residual disease (MS-MRD) by targeting unique M-protein peptides. Therapeutic antibodies (t-Abs), key in MM treatment, often lead to deep and long-lasting responses.
