I am deeply convinced that the purpose of scientific journals is publishing science, ideally the best science, but definitely not making money, for whomsoever. keywords: access; activities; article; artists; authors; commercial; copyediting; discussion; editorial; end; fees; free; free neuropathology; high; institutions; journal; jumpartize; layout; money; museums; neuropathology; open; opinion; paper; processing; publication; publishers; publishing; quality; readers; science; scientific; scientists; subscription; technical; time; work cache: fnp-2610.htm plain text: fnp-2610.txt item: #2 of 103 id: fnp-2611 author: None title: Free for authors, free for readers, free from publisher, free date: None words: 1584 flesch: 50 summary: For instance, whereas we previously had only two known NET entities, dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNET) (don’t even get me started on “dysembryoplastic”) and cribriform neuroepithelial tumor (CRINET), we’ve since added: 1) high-grade neuroepithelial tumor (HGNET) with MN1 alteration (HGNET-MN1), 2) HGNET with BCOR exon 15 internal tandem duplication (HGNET-BCOR), 3) neuroepithelial tumor with H3 G34 mutation (NET-H3-G34), and 4) polymorphous low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young (PLNTY)3-9. This explains the intended use of neuroepithelial tumor in the original 1988 description of DNET10, wherein the authors emphasized their view that DNET is likely related to a developmental disorder or malformation, given the frequent histologic findings resembling focal cortical dysplasia in adjacent cortex. keywords: acta; bcor; brain; cells; central; classification; cns; entities; et al; free; g34; grade; hgnet; high; mn1; neoplasm; nervous; neuroectodermal; neuroendocrine; neuroepithelial; neuroepithelial tumor; neuropathology; pituitary; pnet; term; tissue; trash; tube; tumor; type; words cache: fnp-2611.htm plain text: fnp-2611.txt item: #3 of 103 id: fnp-2612 author: None title: Top ten discoveries of the year: Neuroinflammation date: None words: 5924 flesch: 38 summary: Published: 11 January 2020 https://doi.org/10.17879/fnp-2020-2612 Keywords: Neuroimmunology, Brain inflammation, Lymphocytes, Microglia, Autoantibodies, Multiple sclerosis Abstract Ten neuropathological studies, published in 2019, are discussed, which address important aspects of neuroimmunology and inflammatory brain disease.

Subsequent studies of MN1-altered brain tumors have confirmed that many, but not all, have ependymal or astroblastic features.8 Based on these and other studies, the Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to CNS Tumor Taxonomy (cIMPACT-NOW) has proposed designating these tumors “astroblastoma, MN1-altered”.2 Early case series of astroblastoma reported prior to these newer molecular tools likely contained other tumor subtypes, as exemplified by a recent study in which molecular profiling of 14 adult tumors with histologic feature of astroblastoma found they were pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas or high grade gliomas with alterations activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, and none had clear evidence of a MN1-BEND2 fusion, or clustered with that group on methylation profiling analysis.9 The MN1 alteration is usually a fusion between MN1 and BEND2.2 While half or more of microscopically defined astroblastomas harbor an MN1 alteration, a significant number do not.3,10 Our patient is unique due to the presence of a rare non-canonical EWSR1-BEND2 fusion between chromosomes 22 and X.

May become more common after short periods of PMI, but less common with longer periods of PMI; is not thought to contribute to postmortem decomposition Temporary ischemia Temporary cerebral ischemia followed by reperfusion has much different mechanisms of decomposition (e.g. requiring ATP) than the permanent global cerebral ischemia that occurs postmortem Postmortem fluid shifts Biomolecular breakdown and blood extravasation leads to dramatic fluid shifts in the early postmortem brain; eventually, the brain is transformed to a paste- or fluid-like consistency Perivascular and pericellular rarefactions These areas expand and become more frequent in the PMI, which appears to be due to the swelling of astrocyte processes and other cells, causing those areas to not stain on light microscopy Vacuolization Common finding in postmortem brain cells and tissue spaces such as the neuropil that evolves throughout the PMI and can cause alteration of cell morphometry or compression of other structures Biomolecule degradation Largely driven by enzymes, biomolecule breakdown is a key driving force of postmortem decomposition, varying in rate based on many factors, such as the substrate and the temperature Biomolecule redistribution The breakdown of the factors stabilizing biomolecules in place in vivo leads them to eventually diffuse away from their original locations, with degrees of both Gaussian and non-Gaussian spread Table 1. keywords: a.m.;
