N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is the most common subtype of autoimmune encephalitis characterized by a complex neuropsychiatric syndrome usually including memory impairment. Patients develop an intrathecal immune response against NMDARs with antibodies that presumably bind to the amino-terminal domain of the GluN1 subunit.

Glycolysis regulates neuronal excitability via lactate receptor, HCA1R
Daria Skwarzynska, Huayu Sun, John Williamson, Izabela Kasprzak, Jaideep Kapur
doi : 10.1093/brain/awac419
Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 1888–1902
Repetitively firing neurons during seizures accelerate glycolysis to meet energy demand, which leads to the accumulation of extracellular glycolytic by-product lactate. Here, we demonstrate that lactate rapidly modulates neuronal excitability in times of metabolic stress via the hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor type 1 (HCA1R) to modify seizure activity.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 1903–1915
While seizure activity may be electrographically widespread, increasing evidence has suggested that ictal discharges may in fact represent travelling waves propagated from a focal seizure source.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 1993–2002
Epstein–Barr virus infection, and perhaps almost exclusively delayed Epstein–Barr virus infection, seems to be a prerequisite for the development of multiple sclerosis. Siblings provide protection against infectious mononucleosis by occasionally preventing delayed primary Epstein–Barr virus infection, with its associated high risk of infectious mononucleosis.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2016–2028
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating and fatal neurodegenerative disease of motor neurons with very few treatment options. We had previously found that motor neuron degeneration in a mouse model of ALS can be delayed by deleting the axon damage sensor MAP3K12 or dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK).

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2029–2044
Staging the severity of Alzheimer’s disease pathology using biomarkers is useful for therapeutic trials and clinical prognosis. Disease staging with amyloid and tau PET has face validity; however, this would be more practical with plasma biomarkers. Our objectives were, first, to examine approaches for staging amyloid and tau PET and, second, to examine prediction of amyloid and tau PET stages using plasma biomarkers.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2045–2058
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis is important for learning and memory and is altered early in Alzheimer’s disease. As hippocampal neurogenesis is modulated by the circulatory systemic environment, evaluating a proxy of how hippocampal neurogenesis is affected by the systemic milieu could serve as an early biomarker for Alzheimer’s disease progression.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2120–2131
While frontotemporal dementia has been considered a neurodegenerative disease that starts in mid-life or later, it is now clearly established that cortical and subcortical volume loss is observed more than a decade prior to symptom onset and progresses with ageing.

Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2132–2141
Although delirium is a significant clinical and public health problem, little is understood about how specific vulnerabilities underlie the severity of its presentation. Our objective was to quantify the relationship between baseline cognition and subsequent delirium severity.

doi : 10.1093/brain/awac403
Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2153–2162
Human pain is a salient stimulus composed of two main components: a sensory/somatic component, carrying peripheral nociceptive sensation via the spinothalamic tract and brainstem nuclei to the thalamus and then to sensory cortical regions, and an affective (suffering) component, where information from central thalamic nuclei is carried to the anterior insula, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and other regions.

The behavioural variant of Alzheimer’s disease (bvAD) is characterized by early predominant behavioural changes, mimicking the behavioural variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), which is characterized by social cognition deficits and altered biometric responses to socioemotional cues. These functions remain understudied in bvAD.

doi : 10.1093/brain/awac416
Brain, Volume 146, Issue 5, May 2023, Pages 2191–2198
The hippocampal formation has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, with patients showing impairments in spatial and relational cognition, structural changes in entorhinal cortex and reduced theta coherence with medial prefrontal cortex. Both the entorhinal cortex and medial prefrontal cortex exhibit a 6-fold (or ‘hexadirectional’) modulation of neural activity during virtual navigation that is indicative of grid cell populations and associated with accurate spatial navigation.
