Computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain showing large heterogeneous midline mass containing irregular areas of high attenuation (calcification), low attenuation (fat), and intermediate attenuation (soft tissue). ( A , B ) It causes moderate asymmetric dilatation of the right lateral ventricle with a shift of the midline structures to the right. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showing large well-defined, multilobulated extra-axial solid cystic lesion in the region of quadrigeminal cistern with the pineal gland not separately visible from the lesion. The solid component of the lesion appeared isointense on T1-weighted images in ( C ) axial view and ( D ) sagittal view, heterogeneously hyperintense on T2-weighted images in ( E ) axial view and ( F ) coronal view, with multiple foci of calcification. ( G ) The lesion was heterogeneously enhancing on postcontrast administration. The peripheral cystic component appeared iso-hypointense on T1-weighted images and heterogeneously hyperintense onT2-weighted images. ( H ) Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) revealed displacement of bilateral corticospinal tracts, left superior longitudinal fasciculus, left inferior longitudinal fasciculus, and splenium.

Critical steps in the dechorionation process of annual killifish eggs(A and B) Images in A and B depict the aspect at different steps of one N. furzeri and one A. nigripinnis egg, respectively. For both: eggs placed inside a bursting chamber (plating) are punctured using a pair of fine-pointed tweezers (puncturing). The eggs are grabbed and gently punctured using the tip to partly release the high pressure (Methods video S1). After partial deflation of the egg and enlargement of the perivitelline space, the chorion is carefully peeled off using the tweezers from the opposite side of the puncture until detaching all the chorion from the egg (peeling – Methods video S2). The chorion is broken into pieces and discarded. The resulting dechorionated embryo is shown in the panel Dechor. Embryo. Images and suppl. Movies were taken using a Leica S6 D stereo microscope at a 4× magnification. Scale bar = 500 μm.

Yield of A. nigripinnis blastoderm cells (deep embryonic and EVL cells) extracted at early post epiboly stages(A) Quantification of cell viability after extraction using the Neubauer chamber. Live cells appear green as they retain Calcein-AM fluorophore. Large cells are EVL cells and small are deep cells.(B) Exemplary images of a quadrant of the Neubauer chamber (left) and enlarged view (right) illustrate how to recognize EVL and deep cells and how to distinguish between live cells (those that retain Calcein-AM – green arrows) and dead cells (without fluorescence – red arrow). Images were acquired using a Nikon Ti2 eclipse inverted microscope with a 10× air objective with 0.30 NA. Scale bar: 100 μm.(C) Comparison of cell size allows distinguishing EVL (diameter above 10 μm) from deep cells (about 5 μm in diameter). Live cells also typically display cellular activities such as presence of cellular extrusion. Images were acquired using a Nikon Ti2 eclipse inverted microscope with a 40× air objective with 0.95 NA. Scale bar: 20 μm.

Comparison of structures of the living and of the dead annual killifish eggLeft panel – a live egg is shown. Arrow pointing at characteristic structures that should be clearly visible in healthy embryos. Right panel – a dead egg is shown. Arrow pointing at markers for corrupted and degraded structures. Main differences to be noticed are the clarity and turgor of the yolk and organization of the different structures of the egg.

Carprofen accelerates Aβ fibrillization and increases Aβ plaque levels but decreased GFAP levels in 5XFAD mice brains. (a) Chemical structure of carprofen. (b) ThT assay exhibiting accelerated Aβ aggregation after three days of carprofen (0.5, 5, and 50 μM) incubation with monomeric Aβ(1–42) (50 μM) at 37 °C. The intensity levels were normalized to Aβ aggregates (100%, 3 days). (c) Timeline of in vivo experiment. (d) Representative immunostained hemisphere and hippocampus images of wild-type and 5XFAD transgenic mice after the administration of the vehicle (wild-type, n = 5; transgenic, n = 4) or carprofen (25 mg/kg/day, n = 4). Aβ plaques were stained with ThS (green), astrocytosis levels examined using GFAP antibody (red), and nuclear staining by Hoechst (blue). Scale bars = 2 mm (upper, hemisphere) and 500 μm (bottom, hippocampus). All hemisphere and hippocampus brain images are presented in the Supplementary Figs. S1 and S2, respectively. (e) Brain hemisphere, cortical, and hippocampal regions assessed for Aβ plaque measurements. (f) Quantitative measurements of Aβ plaque and area in hemisphere, cortical, and hippocampal brain regions after vehicle (black circle) or carprofen (red circle) treatment. Three consecutive brain sections were stained and quantified for each mouse. The data represent the mean ± SEM and the statistical analyses were performed by one-way analyses of variance (ThT data) and two-tailed unpaired t-test (plaque number and area densitometry) followed by Bonferroni’s post-hoc comparisons tests (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, other comparisons not significant). Wt, wild-type; Tg, transgenic; ip, intraperitoneal; Veh, vehicle; Car, carprofen; ThS, thioflavin S.

(c, d) The aggregated Aβ levels of vehicle- and carprofen-treated groups in both the cortex and hippocampus after ELISA. (e–g) Western blot and densitometry of Alzheimer-related biomarkers in (f) cortex and (g) hippocampus brain lysates.

Radiographic evaluation. Measurement of cross-sectional area (CSA), anterior disk height (ADH), posterior disc height (PDH), foraminal height (FH), lumbar lordosis (LL), and the cross-sectional area of the intervertebral foramina (CSAF). Measurements of CSA, ADH, PDH, FH, and CSAF in the Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS) before the operation, at postoperative 1 day, and at last follow-up (A, F, and K). LL was measured in x-ray sagittal position, the head end measurement line was placed on the L1 superior end plate, the tail end measurement line was placed on the S1 superior end plate (B, G, and L). ADH and PDH were measured at the sagittal position in computed tomography (CT), the distance between the anterior/posterior edges of the upper vertebrae and the end plate of the lower vertebrae is called the anterior/posterior disk height (C, H, and M). FH was measured in the sagittal planes of the bilateral foramen in CT images. The length between the upper and lower edges is FH (D, I, and N). In the same plane of computed tomography CT, the foramen was outlined to read the CSAF (E, J, and O). CSA was measured in the axial sections of T2-weighted imaging. The central canal (including the thecal sac and epidural fat) was outlined in PACS to get the CSA.

Task design and saccade responses. (A) Metronome task. Trials started with a central fixation point (FP) with a random offset between 1,000–1,500 ms. A white target spot appeared at 10° eccentricity at the time of FP offset and alternated between the right and left side of the screen at a fixed interstimulus interval (ISI) for 16 target steps. Participants were instructed to move their eyes in time with the target. Five ISI conditions were used: 500 ms, 750 ms, 1,000 ms, 1,250 ms, 1,500 ms with each ISI having 6 trial blocks of 16 target steps. Different trial blocks of ISI conditions were presented pseudorandomly. In the random task, the ISI varied with each target step such that the location of the targets remained predictable, but the timing of their onset was unpredictable. (B) Eye position. The average of study participants’ traces of eye positions (dark blue) toward the square-wave target (light gray) in the 500 ms condition of the metronome task.
