A set of socio-demographic, clinical, psychological and biological variables was examined in 100 patients diagnosed according to Perris as bipolar affective psychotics or unipolar depressive psychotics, maintained on prophylactic lithium for 2 years and divided into responders and non-responders to this treatment on the basis of strict criteria. The results confirmed the potential role of four indices as predictors of response to prophylaxis: a positive family history of bipolar affective illness and a high red blood cell/plasma lithium ratio (positive predictors) and the presence of the HLA-A3 antigen and a high score on the Neuroticism Scale of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (negative predictors). A stepwise discriminant analysis showed that neuroticism score, lithium ratio and HLA-A3 antigen, taken together, correctly classified 74.6% of responders and 68.3% of non-responders. It is hypothesized that these variables as a group may be of practical value in predicting response to lithium prophylaxis, and that pharmacogenetic and, perhaps, personality factors may be involved in treatment failures. 相似文献

Three different regions of the vertebrate central nervous system maintained in vitro (frog spinal cord, guinea pig olfactory cortex and hippocampus) have been used to investigate how Li+ influences membrane potential, membrane resistance, action potentials, synaptic potentials and the transmembrane K+-distribution of neurons and glial cells. In view of the therapeutic action of Li+ in manicdepressive disease, a special effort was made to determine the threshold concentration for the actions of Li+ on the parameters described above. It was observed that Li+ induced a membrane depolarization of both neurons and glial cells, a decrease of action potential amplitudes, a facilitation of monosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potentials and a depression of polysynaptic reflexes. The membrane resistance of neurons was not altered. Li+ also induced an elevation of the free extracellular potassium concentration and a decrease of the free intracellular potassium concentration. Furthermore, in the presence of Li+ a slowing of the recovery of the membrane potential of neurons and glial cells, and of the extracellular potassium concentration after repetitive synaptic stimulation was observed. The threshold concentrations for the effects of Li+ were below 5 mmol/l in the frog spinal cord and below 2 mmol/l in the guinea pig olfactory cortex and hippocampus. The basic mechanism underlying the action of Li+ may be an interaction with the transport-function of the Na+/K+ pump. 相似文献

Nanotechnologies are at the center of societal interest, due to their broad spectrum of application in different industrial products. The current concern about nanomaterials (NMs) is the potential risks they carry for human health and the environment. Considering that NMs can reach bodies of water, there is a need for studying the toxic effects of NMs on aquatic organisms. Among the NMs’ toxic effects on fish, the interactions between NMs and the nervous system are yet to be understood. For this reason, our goal was to assess the neurotoxicity of polyvinylpyrrolidone coated silver nanospheres [AgNS (PVP coated)] and compare their effects in relation to silver ions (Ag+) in carnivorous Hoplias intermedius fish after acute and subchronic trophic exposure through the analysis of morphological (retina), biochemical (brain) and genetic biomarkers (brain and blood). For morphological biomarkers, damage by AgNS (PVP coated) in retina was found, including morphological changes in rods, cones, hemorrhage and epithelium rupture, and also deposition of AgNS (PVP coated) in retina and sclera. In the brain biomarkers, AgNS (PVP coated) did not disturb acetylcholinesterase activity. However, lowered migration of the DNA tail in the Comet Assay of blood and brain cells was observed for all doses of AgNS (PVP coated), for both acute and subchronic bioassays, and in a dose-dependent manner in acute exposure. Ag+ also reduced the level of DNA damage only under subchronic conditions in the brain cells. In general, the results demonstrated that AgNS (PVP coated) do not cause similar effects in relation to Ag+. Moreover, the lowered level of DNA damage detected by Comet Assay suggests that AgNS (PVP coated) directly interacts with DNA of brain and blood cells, inducing DNA-DNA or DNA-protein crosslinks. Therefore, the AgNS (PVP coated) accumulating, particularly in the retina, can lead to a competitive disadvantage for fish, compromising their survival. 相似文献

The clinical and neuropathological features of a case of a neurodegenerative disorder with pronounced and progressive head drooping, in Japanese Kubisagari, are reported. This female patient died at the age of 72 years after an approximately 20-year history of peculiar posture with progressive head drooping (Kubisagari) and lordosis (bowed posture), parkinsonism, dysphonia and slight muscle wasting of the face, tongue, neck, and distal portions of the upper extremities. She did not display mental deterioration until the terminal stage of the illness. A simple macroscopic inspection of formalin-fixed sections of the central nervous system (CNS) showed prominent atrophic frontal and temporal lobes, brownish discoloration of the putamen and an atrophic pyramidal tract. Light microscopy revealed severe neuron loss with fibrillary gliosis at both the above-mentioned lobes and the putamen. Both the facial and hypoglossal nuclei had almost disappeared. Motor neurons in the spinal cord were moderately to markedly decreased. Neither Bunina nor Lewy bodies, senile plaque, nor Pick's argyrophilic neuronal inclusions were observed, but very occasionally ubiquitin-positive neurons were found in the temporal cortex. In conclusion, the hitherto-unrecognized neuropathological findings in the CNS corresponding to progressive head drooping (Kubisagari) suggest that this is a neurodegenerative disorder of the CNS, possibly an atypical form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. 相似文献

The role of matrix metalloproteinases in autoimmune damage to the central and peripheral nervous system 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Members of the family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory demyelination. MMPs apparently mediate important steps in the genesis of inflammatory demyelination, such as cell migration, blood-brain/nerve barrier breakdown, demyelination, and cytokine activation. This review will highlight in vitro as well as in vivo findings, which support the importance of this group of proteases in the pathogenesis of inflammatory demyelinating disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system. 相似文献

Genetically caused neurological disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) are usually orphan diseases with poor or even fatal clinical outcome and few or no treatments that will improve longevity or at least quality of life. Neuroinflammation is common to many of these disorders, despite the fact that a plethora of distinct mutations and molecular changes underlie the disorders. In this article, data from corresponding animal models are analyzed to define the roles of innate and adaptive inflammation as modifiers and amplifiers of disease. We describe both common and distinct patterns of neuroinflammation in genetically mediated CNS disorders and discuss the contrasting mechanisms that lead to adverse versus neuroprotective effects. Moreover, we identify the juxtaparanode as a neuroanatomical compartment commonly associated with inflammatory cells and ongoing axonopathic changes, in models of diverse diseases. The identification of key immunological effector pathways that amplify neuropathic features should lead to realistic possibilities for translatable therapeutic interventions using existing immunomodulators. Moreover, evidence emerges that neuroinflammation is not only able to modify primary neural damage‐related symptoms but also may lead to unexpected clinical outcomes such as neuropsychiatric syndromes. 相似文献

We tested the hypothesis that a single systemic injection of 380 mg/kg of the muscarinic agonist pilocarpine would produce more diffuse and severe seizure-induced brain damage than a single injection of lithium (3 mEq/kg) followed 4 h later by < 1/10 the dosage of pilocarpine. The hypothesis was not supported; the pattern of quantitative brain damage 50–60 days after the seizures were elicited by either treatment was comparable within the limits of measurement error. Within the diencephalon and subcortica telencephalon the same structures were either damaged in a similar quantitative manner or were spared. Only five of the 119 damaged structures exhibited statistically significant treatment differences at P < 0.01. The results are compatible with the explanation that lithium may enhance the excitotoxic effects of subsequent muscarinic stimulation. 相似文献

Pathological and pathogenetic changes in the central nervous system of guinea pigs given tunicamycin
Summary Guinea pigs were injected with tunicamycin and the sequential morphological alterations in the brain examined to investigate further the pathogenesis of cerebral lesions in this experimental model of annual ryegrass toxicity, a central nervous system disease of livestock caused by members of the tunicamycin group of antibiotics. Brain damage was most commonly observed in the cerebellum, and the important alterations in the development of degenerative parenchymal lesions appeared to be largely referrable to changes in small blood vessels. Endothelial damage, with increased vascular permeability, resulted in capillary obstruction leading to localised ischaemia and hypoxic neuronal damage. There was evidence for several possible mechanisms which may have contributed to vascualr occlusion.Supported in part by a Wool Research Trust Fund grant 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare chronic progressive disorder caused by chronic subarachnoid hemorrhage. We present four patients with superficial siderosis of the CNS to describe the characteristic symptoms, and to discuss the pathogenetic heterogeneity and possible new therapeutic approaches. RESULTS: The causes of chronic subarachnoid bleeding in superficial siderosis were different. In two patients surgical treatment of ependymoma or cerebral cavernomas were the underlying diseases. No cause was detected in one patient. For the first time, we present one patient with vasculitis of the central nervous system associated with systemic hemochromatosis in superficial siderosis. Therapeutic approaches included exstirpation of cavernomas as the source of chronic bleeding in one patient, immunosuppressive therapy and venupunctures in the patient with vasculitis and hemochromatosis, and symptomatic treatment with chelating agents and antioxidants. The patients remained clinically stable for the follow-up period of up to 2 years. CONCLUSIONS: Our cases underline the pathogenetic heterogeneity of superficial siderosis and favor the early diagnosis for prompt initiation of therapy. Besides treatment of the underlying condition, antioxidants and radical scavengers may be effective in halting the progression of the disease. 相似文献

Inorganic arsenic (iAs) exposure causes peripheral neuropathy. Oxidative effects caused by iAs exposure in peripheral nerves have been incompletely characterized. This study analyzed arsenic and lipid oxidative damage in the brain, spinal cord, and sciatic and sensory sural nerves following arsenite exposure. This study also explored whether alpha tocopherol (alpha-TOC) administration mitigates arsenite-induced oxidative damage. Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) levels and distributions of iAs and its metabolites were evaluated in male Wistar rats following 30d of sodium arsenite exposure (10mg/kg bodyweight (bw)/d, by gavage). A second group also received alpha-TOC (125mg/kg bw/d, by gavage) during the final 20d of arsenite administration. Arsenite exposure caused increased TBARS levels within each region of the nervous system; oxidative stress was most pronounced in the sural and sciatic nerves. In addition there was a positive quadratic relationship between TBARS levels and the concentration of arsenicals found in the nervous system (r(2)=0.878, p<0.001). Dimethylarsenic was the predominant metabolite of iAs found. Animals alpha-TOC-treated had a 1.7-5.2-fold reduction in TBARS levels when compared with rats that received iAs alone. These results suggest that oxidative damage may be the main mechanism of toxicity induced by exposure of the peripheral nervous system to arsenite and that such damage could be attenuated by alpha-TOC-supplementation. 相似文献

BackgroundLithium is a helpful adjunct to patients undergoing ECT. However, only case reports and limited data suggest increase risk of delirium. Thus, this continues to be a controversial issue.ObjectiveIn this study, we examine 1) The association and odds of delirium and cognitive problems with ECT and lithium (ECT + Li) combination compared to ECT alone, 2) If positively associated, would this association vary by both type of mood episode and type of disorder?MethodsA national sample of 64,728 adult psychiatric inpatients across the US (identified from a total data of about 70 million total discharges annually) was analyzed using linear-by-linear association and logistic regression to assess the odds ratio (OR) for delirium and cognitive impairment for those treated with lithium (N = 158), ECT (N = 64148), or ECT + Li (N = 422) after adjusting for demographics and psychiatric diagnoses.ResultsThe prevalence of delirium was higher in the ECT + Lithium group (5.7%) vs. ECT only (0.6%) or lithium only groups (0%). Patients managed with ECT + Lithium have 11.7-fold higher odds (95% CI 7.55–17.99, P < 0.001) of delirium compared to ECT alone. In the ECT + Li group, delirium prevalence was 7.8% in unipolar depression, 3.4% in bipolar depressed, 0% in bipolar mania.ConclusionThese results are surprising given the fading concern about delirium association with ECT + lithium combination. The high odds in the combination group warrant clinical caution, use of lower lithium doses (if combinations cannot be avoided), and vigilance regarding early signs of delirium. These results warrant replication in future studies. 相似文献
