Neuropathological examinations were carried out at necropsy on 83 very pre-term babies who died during their first hospital admission. Forty seven (57%) babies had evidence of cerebral damage-39 with ischaemic white matter damage. The time of onset of ischaemic lesions was thought to be prenatal in 12 cases (31%) and postnatal in a further 12 (31%). The exact timing of damage could not be determined in 15 (38%) cases. Maternal and neonatal case notes were reviewed to ascertain clinical associations of ischaemic white matter damage. There were no clear associations between adverse clinical factors and prenatal ischaemic white matter damage. In contrast, pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth retardation, and delivery without labour were associated with postnatal damage as were neonatal sepsis, necrotising enterocolitis, and seizures. The absence of a clear association between the timing of adverse clinical factors and the timing of ischaemic cerebral damage suggests that cerebral damage in very preterm babies may result from a sequence of events rather than one specific insult. 相似文献

Cerebral white matter injury, characterised by loss of premyelinating oligodendrocytes (pre-OLs), is the most common form of injury to the preterm brain and is associated with a high risk of neurodevelopmental impairment. The unique cerebrovascular anatomy and physiology of the premature baby underlies the exquisite sensitivity of white matter to the abnormal milieu of preterm extrauterine life, in particular ischaemia and inflammation. These two upstream mechanisms can coexist and amplify their effects, leading to activation of two principal downstream mechanisms: excitotoxicity and free radical attack. Upstream mechanisms trigger generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. The pre-OL is intrinsically vulnerable to free radical attack due to immaturity of antioxidant enzyme systems and iron accumulation. Ischaemia and inflammation trigger glutamate receptor-mediated injury leading to maturation-dependent cell death and loss of cellular processes. This review looks at recent evidence for pathogenetic mechanisms in white matter injury with emphasis on targets for prevention and treatment of injury. 相似文献

The rapidly expanding use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in children with neurological impairments of unknown aetiology has revealed a large number of children with abnormalities of the cerebral white matter, some with leukodystrophy-like white matter abnormalities on MRI, but non-progressive in clinical presentation and course. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical and neuroradiological characteristics of 26 children with white matter abnormalities of unknown origin and to find diagnostic clues or indicators of progressive versus nonprogressive disease. The typical child with white matter abnormalities was characterized by onset of symptoms within the first year of life, most often presenting as general developmental delay and hypotonia. Later-appearing signs were spasticity and ataxia and as a rule severe learning and motor disabilities. Serious ophthalmological signs were frequently seen. Perinatal adverse events were rare, infectious aetiologies not indicated but prenatal stigmata relatively common. The clinical course was progressive in 11 children and non-progressive in 15. Late onset presentation was associated with a progressive course whereas prenatal stigmata and asymmetrical white matter lesions only were found in children with a non-progressive disorder. The MRI showed three main patterns: a) a generalized increase of the T2 signal of the white matter in 12 children, b) a bilateral, symmetric but not generalized abnormality in nine and c) asymmetric, focal or multifocal pathology in five. Useful information as to clinical entities and course was obtained from the combined clinical and radiological assessment. A precise nosological diagnosis could be made in six cases. The study showed that white matter abnormalities in children constitute a heterogeneous group of rare and 'anonymous' conditions, motivating collaborative studies for further clarification of background and management. 相似文献

MR findings from six newborns with Escherichia coli (E. coli) meningitis are reported. Five of the six infants were infected with the K1 strain. All the infants displayed significant white matter injury on MR imaging. E. coli remains a serious cause of meningitis and MR imaging in this case series provides additional important information highlighting the vulnerability of the cerebral white matter in this condition in the newborn infant. 相似文献

先天性心脏病(congenital heart disease,CHD)是最常见的出生缺陷疾病.近年来,随着心脏外科技术的显著提升,复杂性CHD新生儿和婴幼儿的生存率已经明显提高.然而,神经性后遗症仍然常见并且高达25% ~55%.CHD术后大脑损伤最主要的是白质(white matter,WM)损伤.研究表明,以脑室周围WM软化病为特点的WM损伤常见于CHD婴幼儿尤其是心脏外科术后.既往人们认为这是由于术中体外循环和外科手术操作引起.然而,随着外科手术、医疗诊断技术的不断进步和基础研究的不断深入,人们发现CHD患儿WM损伤是术前、术中、术后多重因素综合作用的结果.这些患儿生长发育后期出现的运动障碍、注意力和学习等方面的缺陷给家庭和社会带来巨大经济负担,降低了人口素质.因此,探究CHD患儿WM损伤的原因、机制和防治方法成为近年CHD脑损伤研究热点,也可能成为未来进一步显著改善CHD患几神经发育损伤的重要研究方向. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Depressed mood has been associated with decreased white matter and reduced hippocampal volumes. However, the relationship between brain structure and mood may be unique among adolescents who use marijuana heavily. The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between white matter and hippocampal volumes and depressive symptoms among adolescent marijuana users and controls. METHODS: Data were collected from marijuana users (n = 16) and demographically similar controls (n = 16) aged 16-18. Extensive exclusionary criteria included psychiatric and neurologic disorders, including major depression. Substance use, mood, and anatomical measures were collected after 28 days of monitored abstinence. RESULTS: Marijuana (MJ) users demonstrated more depressive symptoms than controls (p < .05). MJ use (beta = .42, p < .005) and smaller white matter volume (beta = -.34, p < .03) each predicted higher levels of depressive symptoms on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. MJ use interacted with white matter volume (beta = -.55, p < .03) in predicting depression scores on the Beck Depression Inventory: among MJ users, but not controls, white matter volume was negatively associated with depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: Marijuana use and white matter volume were additive and interactive in predicting depressive symptoms among adolescents. Subtle neurodevelopmental white matter abnormalities may disrupt the connections between areas involved in mood regulation. 相似文献

Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) in the premature infant represents the major substrate underlying cognitive deficits and cerebral palsy and is characterized as focal periventricular necrosis and diffuse gliosis in the immature cerebral white matter. We have recently shown a significant decrease in the density of neurons in PVL relative to controls throughout the white matter, including the subventricular, periventricular, and subcortical regions. These neurons are likely to be remnants of the subplate and/or GABAergic neurons in late migration to the cerebral cortex, both of which are important for proper cortical circuitry in development and throughout adulthood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that intrinsic repair occurs in PVL to attempt to compensate for the deficits in white matter neurons. By using doublecortin (DCX) immunopositivity as a marker of postmitotic migrating neurons, we found significantly increased densities (p < 0.05) of DCX-immunopositive cells in PVL cases (n = 9) compared with controls (n = 7) in the subventricular zone (their presumed site of origin), necrotic foci, and subcortical white matter in the perinatal time-window, i.e. 35-42 postconceptional weeks. These data provide the first evidence suggestive of an attempt at neuronal repair or regeneration in human neonatal white matter injury. 相似文献

目的:研究中枢神经系统小胶质细胞(MG)正常发育尤其是少突胶质细胞前体细胞(OPCs) 最易受损阶段的发育,探讨宫内感染早产鼠MG依赖的OPCs损伤机制。方法:①观察正常C57B/L鼠不同胎龄(孕10、15 d )和生后(0、5、10 d)MG和OPCs在脑白质的发育分布情况,明确两者在发育和分布上的关联。②建立脂多糖(LPS)宫内感染新生鼠模型(宫内分别接种LPS 5、10和20 μg·mL-1为感染A~C组),以PBS溶液接种为对照组。以Tomato lectin作为静息状态MG标志,CD68作为活化MG的特殊抗体,O4+作为OPCs抗体,抗体浮片法进行免疫组化染色并计数分析。③ Western blot法检测各组脑室周围白质组织Toll样受体-4 (TLR-4)蛋白表达。④ 采用ELISA法检测各组MG活化后IL-2、TNF-α和SOD水平变化。结果:①MG在孕10 d胎鼠Tomato lectin表达低下,孕15 d胎鼠表达显著增高,MG主要分布在脑室周围白质区域,灰质皮质几乎不表达。出生后,脑室周围白质区域MG的表达有所下降,灰质皮质的表达逐渐增高。②感染A~C组CD68+细胞数量均显著增加,与对照组差异有统计学意义(P<0.01),但感染C组与B组CD68+细胞数量差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。与对照组比较,感染A~C组均可见O4+细胞数量显著性下降(P<0.01),其中以感染C组下降最为明显。③对照组未检测到TLR-4蛋白表达, 感染A~C组均可见LPS剂量依赖的TLR-4蛋白表达增加,与对照组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。④随接种LPS剂量增大,IL-2和TNF-α水平较对照组呈显著增加趋势, SOD水平较对照组呈显著降低趋势。结论:新生鼠发育依赖的MG在脑白质受损区域过度表达,表明活化MG起到本底激活效应,是早产儿脑白质损伤的物质基础。 相似文献
