CNS injuries are associated with profound changes in cell organization. This protocol presents a stepwise approach to quantitatively describe the spatiotemporal changes in glial cell rearrangement in the injured murine brain, which is applicable to other biological contexts. Herein, we apply common immunolabeling of neurons and glial cells and wide-field microscopy imaging. Then, we employ computational tools for alignment to the Allen Brain Atlas, unbiased/automatic detection of cells, generation of point patterns, and data analysis. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Manrique-Castano et al..

Lipidomics has attracted attention in the discovery of unknown biomolecules and for capturing the changes in metabolism caused by genetic and environmental factors in an unbiased manner. However, obtaining reliable lipidomics data, including structural diversity and quantification data, is still challenging. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a suitable technique for separating lipid molecules with high throughput and separation efficiency.

The human hippocampus, essential for learning and memory, is implicated in numerous neurological and psychiatric disorders, each linked to specific neuronal subpopulations. Advancing our understanding of hippocampal function requires computational models grounded in precise quantitative neuronal data. While extensive data exist on the neuronal composition and synaptic architecture of the rodent hippocampus, analogous quantitative data for the human hippocampus remain very limited.

Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a motor neuron disease (MND) which mainly affects upper motor neurons. Within the MND spectrum, PLS is much more slowly progressive than amyotrophic laterals sclerosis (ALS). `Classical` ALS is characterized by catabolism and abnormal energy metabolism preceding onset of motor symptoms, and previous studies indicated that the disease progression of ALS involves hypothalamic atrophy.

The degeneration of midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons disrupts the neural control of natural behavior, such as walking, posture, and gait in Parkinson's disease. While some aspects of motor symptoms can be managed by dopamine replacement therapies, others respond poorly. Recent advancements in machine learning-based technologies offer opportunities for unbiased segmentation and quantification of natural behavior in both healthy and diseased states.

Background: High content imaging-based functional precision medicine approaches have been developed and successfully applied in the field of haemato-oncology. For rheumatoid arthritis (RA), treatment selection is still based on a trial-and-error principle, and biomarkers for patient stratification and drug response prediction are needed.
Methods: A high content, high throughput microscopy-based phenotyping pipeline for peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was developed, allowing for the quantification of cell type frequencies, cell type specific morphology and intercellular interactions from patients with RA (n = 65) and healthy controls (HC, n = 33).
