6. On neuroinflammation in psychotic disorders
Abstract : Neuroinflammation has been implicated in several psychiatric conditions. Based on experimental studies, the glia-derived tryptophan metabolite kynurenic acid (KYNA) may be especially relevant for positive psychotic symptoms and impaired executive functioning. READ MORE

7. Evaluation of the Endo-Lysosomal System and the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Abstract : Neurodegeneration is the process of neuronal cell loss where the symptoms will reflect the regions affected. Neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are all characterised by an accumulation of protein aggregates suggesting impaired production or turnover of these proteins.

8. Neurochemical and neuroendocrine reactions during non-neurological surgery
Abstract : Abstract Objective: To study changes in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteins, monoamine metabolites and hormones during non-neurological surgery. Subjects and methods: Thirty-five patients without neurological or psychiatric disorders undergoing knee replacements had CSF and serum samples drawn from spinal and arterial catheters before, three hours after and on the morning after surgery.

9. Cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers in twins with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder
Abstract : Previously identified cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers were studied in 37 twins with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder to determine their genetic and environmental properties. Further, comorbidities and sibling risks were investigated in patients with schizophrenia (n=22,781), bipolar disorder (n=30,761) and depression (n=172,479) in relation to multiple sclerosis (MS) (n=16,467) in a nationwide cohort.

10. Multiplexed antibody-based protein profiling in the pursuit of CSF biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases
Abstract : There is a desire for a transition from generic treatments designed for the average patient, towards more individual-based precision medicine. An increased knowledge about disease pathophysiology on a molecular level would be beneficial for this transition. READ MORE
