Summary: Dementia is a leading cause of death worldwide, and this study focused on analyzing the proteome of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and CSF-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) from patients with Alzheimer's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and Parkinson's disease dementia. The analysis identified differentially expressed proteins that can be helpful for differential diagnosis and offer new avenues for research into disease-specific pharmacological therapeutics.

Summary: The diagnostic utility of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sulfatide isoform levels in different courses or phenotypes of multiple sclerosis (MS) was investigated. The results showed that there was no difference in CSF total sulfatide concentrations and isoform distribution among the study groups, and the levels were independent of disease course/phenotype, disease duration, time to conversion to secondary progressive MS, age, and disability.

Summary: MS is a common chronic neurodegenerative disease affecting young people, with significant impact on quality of life. Early recognition and treatment are crucial. Current therapies aim to reduce disease activity, but monitoring measures have limitations. New biomarkers in blood and CSF may improve diagnostic accuracy and personalized treatment.

Summary: The proteomic analysis of plasma has great potential for precision medicine and biomarker identification. However, detecting and quantifying low abundance proteins in plasma is challenging. This study developed a mass spectrometry approach using tandem mass tags (TMT) and a tissue reference sample, which successfully identified and quantified numerous proteins in nonhuman primate plasma samples. The methodology promises to increase the number of putative disease biomarkers by efficiently quantifying plasma proteins released from specific tissues.

Summary: This study used mass spectrometry with library-free data-independent acquisition to analyze the CSF proteome of ALS patients. It identified proteins correlated with clinical variables and strengthened the candidacy of CHIT1 and UCHL1 as biomarkers for ALS. The study also highlighted inflammatory and endoplasmic reticulum proteins as potential prognostic biomarkers.

Summary: Neurochemical biomarkers can aid in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, and the A beta-3-40/A beta 1-42 ratio in blood plasma can accurately predict cerebral amyloid-beta pathology. The presence of A beta-3-40 and A beta-3-38 in human cerebrospinal fluid has been confirmed, and the ratio of CSF A beta-3-40/A beta 42 appears to be increased in individuals with amyloid-beta PET-positive results.

Summary: High pT217/T217 and low Aβ42/40 were found in CSF of AD patients, while low pT217/T217 and normal Aβ42/40 were observed in 3R+4R tauopathies patients and cognitively normal individuals. The CSF pT217/T217 x CSF Aβ42/40 composite biomarker is sensitive in distinguishing MAPT R406W carriers from other groups.

Summary: In this study, elevated levels of CXCL10 were detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of multiple sclerosis (MS) cases, and these levels were associated with increased T cell numbers but not with peripheral CXCR3 expression. These findings support the importance of CXCL10 in MS and suggest the presence of alternative mechanisms of CXCL10 beyond solely influencing immune cell trafficking.

Summary: This study utilized proteomics to analyze serum proteins and identify potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of osteoarticular tuberculosis. ITIH2, CFHR2, CFHR3, and CFHR5 were found to be potential biomarkers, with CFHR2 and CFHR3 showing good diagnostic efficacy when combined in a diagnostic model.

Summary: This study identified potential diagnostic biomarkers for progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS) based on m6A regulatory genes in the cerebrospinal fluid. The study revealed that the dynamic modification of m6A RNA methylation is involved in the progression of PMS, and could potentially serve as a novel biomarker for diagnosing MS and differentiating PMS from RRMS.

Summary: This study investigated the association between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) parameters at the time of multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis and retinal thinning. The results showed an inverse association between CSF white blood cell count and retinal thickness at diagnosis. However, other CSF parameters and neurofilament light chain measurements were not associated with retinal thinning.

Summary: This study identified a 3-gene signature panel with prognostic value in bladder cancer, including CDKN2A, CDC20, CTSV, FOXM1, MAGEA6, KRT23, and S100A9. These genes were confirmed to have strong prognostic values in bladder cancer and were validated through qRT-PCR in various human bladder cancer cells representing stage-specific disease progression. Additionally, ULCAN, human protein atlas, and The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets were used to confirm the predictive value of these genes in bladder cancer progression.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of chronic ethanol feeding on the hepatic phosphoproteome, focusing on the death receptor signaling pathways. It is found that chronic ethanol dysregulates these pathways and decreases the inhibitory phosphorylation of ASK1, a critical protein involved in programmed cell death. Furthermore, the study suggests the involvement of noncanonical functions of RIP3 in alcohol-associated liver disease.
