We performed immune cell profiling by multiparameter flow cytometry in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and peripheral blood (PB) of Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients (n = 9) and healthy controls (n = 8). Classical and non-classical monocytes were increased in the CSF of PD patients.

Iron is the most abundant transition metal in the brain and is essential for brain development and neuronal function; however, its abnormal accumulation is also implicated in various neurological disorders. The olfactory bulb (OB), an early target in neurodegenerative diseases, acts as a gateway for environmental toxins and contains diverse neuronal populations with distinct roles. This study explored the cell-specific vulnerability to iron in the OB using a mouse model of intranasal administration of ferric ammonium citrate (FAC).

Introduction: Myeloid cells trafficking from the periphery to the central nervous system are key players in multiple sclerosis (MS) through antigen presentation, cytokine secretion and repair processes.
Methods: Combination of mass cytometry on blood cells from 60 MS patients at diagnosis and 29 healthy controls, along with single cell RNA sequencing on paired blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 5 MS patients were used for myeloid cells detailing.
Results: Myeloid compartment study demonstrated an enrichment of a peculiar classical monocyte population in 22% of MS patients at the time of diagnosis.

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) caused by pathogenic immunoglobulin G antibodies to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein is a rare demyelinating disease of the central nerve system (CNS). The clinical phenotypes of MOGAD include acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, optic neuritis, and transverse myelitis. At present, the mechanism underlying the disease is unknown.

Background: Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) is a biomarker for neuro-axonal injury.
Objectives: To assess sNfL's utility as a diagnostic marker for Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB).
Methods: We compared serum and CSF NfL levels in LNB patients and age-matched controls.

This report details the case of a 29-year-old male patient who presented at a tertiary-level trauma centre with multiple stab wounds to the face, chest, and back. Despite not undergoing surgical intervention or exhibiting any apparent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage during the initial evaluation. The patient's condition deteriorated, with subsequent cultures from CSF and blood confirmed extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Acinetobacter baumannii (A.
