The ventricular system carries and circulates cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) and facilitates clearance of solutes and toxins from the brain. The functional units of the ventricles are ciliated epithelial cells termed ependymal cells, which line the ventricles and through ciliary action are capable of generating laminar flow of CSF at the ventricle surface. This monolayer of ependymal cells also provides barrier and filtration functions that promote exchange between brain interstitial fluids (ISF) and circulating CSF. Biochemical changes in the brain are thereby reflected in the composition of the CSF and destruction of the ependyma can disrupt the delicate balance of CSF and ISF exchange. In humans there is a strong correlation between lateral ventricle expansion and aging. Age-associated ventriculomegaly can occur even in the absence of dementia or obstruction of CSF flow. The exact cause and progression of ventriculomegaly is often unknown; however, enlarged ventricles can show regional and, often, extensive loss of ependymal cell coverage with ventricle surface astrogliosis and associated periventricular edema replacing the functional ependymal cell monolayer. Using MRI scans together with postmortem human brain tissue, we describe how to prepare, image and compile 3D renderings of lateral ventricle volumes, calculate lateral ventricle volumes, and characterize periventricular tissue through immunohistochemical analysis of en face lateral ventricle wall tissue preparations. Corresponding analyses of mouse brain tissue are also presented supporting the use of mouse models as a means to evaluate changes to the lateral ventricles and periventricular tissue found in human aging and disease. Together, these protocols allow investigations into the cause and effect of ventriculomegaly and highlight techniques to study ventricular system health and its important barrier and filtration functions within the brain.  相似文献

Age‐associated ventriculomegaly is typically attributed to neurodegeneration; however, additional factors might initiate or contribute to progressive ventricular expansion. By directly linking postmortem human MRI sequences with histological features of periventricular tissue, we show that substantial lateral ventricle surface gliosis is associated with ventriculomegaly. To examine whether loss of ependymal cell coverage resulting in ventricle surface glial scarring can lead directly to ventricle enlargement independent of any other injury or degenerative loss, we modeled in mice the glial scarring found along the lateral ventricle surface in aged humans. Neuraminidase, which cleaves glycosidic linkages of apical adherens junction proteins, was administered intracerebroventricularly to denude areas of ependymal cells. Substantial ependymal cell loss resulted in reactive gliosis rather than stem cell‐mediated regenerative repair of the ventricle lining, and the gliotic regions showed morphologic and phenotypic characteristics similar to those found in aged humans. Increased levels of aquaporin‐4, indicative of edema, observed in regions of periventricular gliosis in human tissue were also replicated in our mouse model. 3D modeling together with volume measurements revealed that mice with ventricle surface scarring developed expanded ventricles, independent of neurodegeneration. Through a comprehensive, comparative analysis of the lateral ventricles and associated periventricular tissue in aged humans and mouse, followed by modeling of surface gliosis in mice, we have demonstrated a direct link between lateral ventricle surface gliosis and ventricle enlargement. These studies highlight the importance of maintaining an intact ependymal cell lining throughout aging.  相似文献

There is a high incidence of periventricular leukomalacia, caused by hypoxia-ischemia, in preterm infants. These lesions damage the periventricular crossroads of commissural, projection and associative pathways, which are in a close topographical relationship with the lateral ventricles. We explored to what extent abnormalities of echogenicity of the periventricular crossroads correlate with changes in size of the corpus callosum. Our study included nine infants (gestation from 26-41 weeks; birth weight between 938-4450 grams) with perinatal brain injury. Periventricular areas, which topographically correspond to the frontal, main and occipital crossroad, were readily visualized by cranial ultrasound scans, performed during the first two weeks after birth. Corpus callosum mediosagittal area measurements were performed using magnetic resonance images, acquired between the first and sixth postnatal month (postmenstrual age 40-49 weeks). We found a statistically significant correlation between the increased echogenicity in the crossroad areas and the decrease of the corpus callosum midsagittal area (p < 0.05). This supports the hypothesis that callosal fibers can be damaged, during growth through the periventricular crossroads of pathways.  相似文献

The pattern of labelling of proteins of the periventricular grey matter was studied two hours after intraventricular administration of 3H-leucine by low- and high-resolution autoradiography. The pattern was investigated by computer-controlled densitometry. The deposition of radioactive, proteins in the periventricular grey surrounding the mesencephalic part of the aquaeductus Sylvii was compared with that surrounding the fourth ventricle. In the former case, the distribution, of grains was in a circular area 500-600 micrometer in diameter; the densitometric tracing revealed a homogeneous distribution of the label; in the latter case, the distribution was nonhomogeneous and was limited by the tissue components forming the wall of the fourth ventricle. A comparison of the intensity of labelling (performed by a combination of low- and high-resolution autoradiography indicated: a) relatively substantial labelling of proteins of ependymal cells, b) very sparce labelling of subependymal layers, c) very high labelling ot neurones, adjacent to the subependymal layers. The significance of these findings for the interpretation of studies using the intraventricular administration of labelled amino acids for investigating brain macromolecular metabolism is discussed.  相似文献

The distribution of monoamine (catecholamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine)-containing nerve cell bodies in the brain stem and hypothalmus of the frog (Rana temporaria) was investigated with the help of the histofluorescence technique of Falck and Hillarp ('62). At the level of the hypothalmus of this amphibian brain, catecholamine-containing nerve cell bodies are found mainly within three areas of the periventricular gray substance, namely the peroptic recess organ, the paraventricular organ and the lateral recess region. On the other hand, most of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin)-containing nerve cell bodies of the brain stem of Rana temporaria appear to be concentrated within the midbrain tegmentum. This huge mesencephalic nerve cell collection can be subdivided into medial and lateral groups. More caudally, at the level of the isthmic tegmentum, another group of 5-hydroxytryptamine-containing perikarya located close to the midline, within the so-called raphae region, is clearly outlined. The latter group of neurons extends caudally as far as the level of the medulla oblongata. In addition, a small group of catecholamine-containing nerve cell bodies is also found in the ventromedial portion of the rostral midbrain tegmentum, whereas a few other catecholamine type neurons are scattered throughout the lower brain stem of the frog and more especially near the ependymal wall of the fourth ventricle. As a whole, the 5-hydroxytryptamine-containing neuronal systems of the brain stem of Rana temporaria are much more elaborated than the catecholamine neuronal systems of the same structure.  相似文献

Summary The circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid along the central canal and its access to the parenchyma of the spinal cord of the rat have been analyzed by injection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) into the lateral ventricle. Peroxidase was found throughout the central canal 13 min after injection, suggesting a rapid circulation of cerebrospinal fluid along the central canal of the rat spinal cord. It was cleared from the central canal within 2 h, in contrast with the situation in the brain tissue, where it remained in the periventricular areas for 4 h. In the central canal, HRP bound to Reissner's fiber and the luminal surface of the ependymal cells; it penetrated through the intercellular space of the ependymal lining, reached the subependymal neuropil, the basement membrane of local capillaries, and appeared in the lumen of endothelial pinocytotic vesicles. Furthermore, it accumulated in the labyrinths of the basement membrane contacting the basolateral aspect of the ependymal cells. In ependymocytes, HRP was found in single pinocytotic vesicles. The blood vessels supplying the spinal cord were classified into two types. Type-A vessels penetrated the spinal cord laterally and dorsally and displayed the tracer along their external wall as far as the gray matter. Type-B vessels intruded into the spinal cord from the medial ventral sulcus and occupied the anterior commissure of the gray matter, approaching the central canal. They represented the only vessels marked by HRP along their course through the gray matter. HRP spread from the wall of type-B vessels, labeling the labyrinths, the intercellular space of the ependymal lining, and the lumen of the central canal. This suggests a communication between the central canal and the outer cerebrospinal fluid space, at the level of the medial ventral sulcus, via the intercellular spaces, the perivascular basement membrane and its labyrinthine extensions.  相似文献

The present investigation based on classical neurohistological techniques (Nissl-staining, Golgi-impregnation) was focussed on the cytoarchitecture of the periventricular layer of the paraventricular nucleus in the Pekin duck. This region is endowed with intraependymal neurons, the perikarya of which are mostly covered by a thin ependymal lamella. Several of the intraependymal neurons were shown to give rise to dendrites extending into the third ventricle. An additional population of nerve cells located in the deeper layers of the periventricular region also gained direct access to the cerebrospinal fluid by means of long dendrites terminating with a bulbous-like swelling in the third ventricle. This cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting dendrite branched off several times in a rectangular fashion to give rise to collaterals running in the subependymal or periventricular layers. The axons of these CSF-contacting neurons were followed into the magnocellular portion of the paraventricular nucleus. Small bipolar nerve cells with processes parallel to the surface of the third ventricle occupied a subependymal position. The isodendritic magnocellular neurons of the paraventricular nucleus emitted dendritic processes that reached the basal pole of the ependymal cells. The complex arrangement of the periventricular layer of the paraventricular nucleus might provide the structural basis for the mechanisms of cerebral osmoreception defined by means of physiological parameters.  相似文献

REGIONAL AND SUBCELLULAR DISTRIBUTION OF AMINOTRANSFERASES IN RAT BRAIN   总被引:6,自引:6,他引:0  
Abstract— Aminotransferase activity was measured in various areas of the nervous system of the rat (cortical grey matter, midbrain, corpus callosum, spinal cord and sciatic nerve) and in subcellular fractions of rat brain (nuclei, mitochondria and cytosol). Activity was low or absent in the sciatic nerve relative to that in the other areas, with the exception of incubation of glutamate with oxaloacetate (25 per cent of the activity found in brain) and of asparagine with 2-oxoglutarate (65 per cent of the activity found in brain). The distribution of enzymic activity was not homogeneous; alanine-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase was highest in cortical grey matter; leucine- and GABA-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferases were highest in midbrain. Incubation of phenylalanine or tyrosine with 2-oxoglutarate gave similar activities in grey matter and midbrain. Activity generally was higher in the grey matter than in corpus callosum or spinal cord. However, incubations of methionine with 2-oxoglutarate, or glutamine with glyoxylate, gave similar activities in the three areas studied from the brain, whereas incubations of glutamate with glyoxylate gave highest activity in the corpus callosum. Only incubations of asparagine with 2-oxoglutarate, and glutamate with glyoxylate, gave significant activity in the nuclear subcellular fraction. Aminotransferase activity of phenylalanine, tyrosine or GABA with 2-oxoglutarate, or ornithine or glutamine with glyoxylate, was localized to mitochondria. The remaining reactions studied (glutamate with oxaloacetate; leucine, alanine, methionine or asparagine with 2-oxoglutarate and glutamate with glyoxylate) demonstrated activity in both the mitochondrial fraction and the soluble supernatant fraction.  相似文献

The cerebral distribution of a low ip dose of ethanol (ETOH) was studied using a double-barrelled, membrane-tipped perfusion cannula in rats. The cannulas were perfused with physiological solution in freely-moving animals at a rate of 19 μl/min for 5 min at 5, 10, and 15 min and subsequently at 15 min intervals for the remainder of 2 hrs after 1 g/kg ETOH. Peak blood ETOH levels (in mg/ 100 ml) after the single dose were 4 times those found in the lateral ventricle, 6–7 times those found in the reticular formation, cerebral cortex, and amygdala, and 9–11 times those found in the caudate and lateral hypothalamus. Peak levels were reached earliest in the lateral ventricle and reticular formation. In a related study, homogenized (“whole”) brain ETOH levels were found to be similar to blood levels while flushed (“bloodless”) brain ETOH levels were approximately 20% lower than those found in blood and “whole” brain. It is concluded that there is a significant differential distribution of ETOH in the rat brain after a low dose of ETOH, and that this unequal brain ETOH distribution may influence the behavioral effects of the drug.  相似文献

Recent investigations confirm the importance of nonsynaptic signal transmission in several functions of the nervous tissue. Present in various periventricular brain regions of vertebrates, the system of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting neurons seems to have a special role in taking up, transforming and emitting nonsynaptic signals mediated by the internal and external CSF and intercellular fluid of the brain. Most of the CSF-contacting nerve cells send dendritic processes into the internal CSF of the brain ventricles or central canal where they form terminals bearing stereocilia and a 9+0-, or 9+2-type cilium. Some of these neurons resemble known sensory cells of chemoreceptor-type, others may be sensitive to the pressure or flow of the CSF, or to the illumination of the brain tissue. The axons of the CSF-contacting neurons transmit information taken up by dendrites and perikarya to synaptic zones of various brain areas. By forming neurohormonal terminals, axons also contact the external CSF space and release various bioactive substances there. Some perikarya send their axons into the internal CSF, and form free endings there, or synapses on intraventricular dendrites, perikarya and/or on the ventricular surface of ependymal cells. Contacting the intercellular space, sensory-type cilia were also demonstrated on nerve cells situated in the brain tissue subependymally or farther away from the ventricles. Among neuronal elements entering the internal CSF-space, the hypothalamic CSF-contacting neurons are present in the magnocellular and parvicellular nuclei and in some circumventricular organs like the paraventricular organ and the vascular sac. The CSF-contacting dendrites of all these areas bear a solitary 9 x 2+0-type cilium and resemble chemoreceptors cytologically. In electrophysiological experiments, the neurons of the paraventricular organ are highly sensitive to the composition of the ventricular CSF. The axons of the CSF-contacting neurons terminate not only in the hypothalamic synaptic zones but also in tel-, mes- and rhombencephalic nuclei and reach the spinal cord as well. The supposed chemical information taken up by the CSF-contacting neurons from the ventricular CSF may influence the function of these areas of the central nervous system. Some nerve cells of the photoreceptor areas form sensory terminals similar to those of the hypothalamic CSF-contacting neurons. Special secondary neurons of the retina and pineal organ contact the retinal photoreceptor space and pineal recess respectively, both cavities being embryologically derived from the 3rd ventricle. The composition of these photoreceptor spaces is important in the photochemical transduction and may modify the activity of the secondary neurons. Septal and preoptic CSF-contacting neurons contain various opsins and other compounds of the phototransduction cascade and represent deep encephalic photoreceptors detecting the illumination of the brain tissue and play a role in the regulation of circadian and reproductive responses to light. The medullo-spinal CSF-contacting neurons present in the oblongate medulla, spinal cord and terminal filum, send their dendrites into the fourth ventricle and central canal. Resembling mechanoreceptors of the lateral line organ, the spinal CSF-contacting neurons may be sensitive to the pressure or flow of the CSF. The axons of these neurons terminate at the external CSF-space of the oblongate medulla and spinal cord and form neurohormonal nerve endings. Based on information taken up from the CSF, a regulatory effect on the production or composition of CSF was supposed for bioactive materials released by these terminals. Most of the axons of the medullospinal CSF-contacting neurons and the magno- and parvicellular neurosecretory nuclei running to neurohemal areas (neurohypophysis, median eminence, terminal lamina, vascular sac and urophysis) do not terminate directly on vessels, instead they form neurohormonal nerve terminals attached by half-desmosomes on the basal lamina of the external and vascular surface of the brain tissue. Therefore, the bioactive materials released from these terminals primarily enter the external CSF and secondarily, by diffusion into vessels and the composition of the external CSF, may have a modulatory effect on the bioactive substances released by the neurohormonal terminals. Contacting the intercellular space, sensory-type cilia were also demonstrated on nerve cells situated subependymally or farther away from the ventricles, among others in the neurosecretory nuclei. Since tight-junctions are lacking between ependymal cells of the ventricular wall, not only CSF-contacting but also subependymal ciliated neurons may be influenced by the actual composition of the CSF besides that of the intercellular fluid of the brain tissue. According to the comparative histological data summarised in this review, the ventricular CSF-contacting neurons represent the phylogenetically oldest component detecting the internal fluid milieu of the brain. The neurohormonal terminals on the external surface of the brain equally represent an ancient form of nonsynaptic signal transmission.  相似文献

The aim of this paper is to compare diameter of healthy and affected optic nerve determined by ultrasound with brain lesions in acute retrobulbar neuritis in patients with multiple sclerosis. In this prospective study 20 patients with multiple sclerosis and acute retrobulbar neuritis were examined. Optic nerve diameter was measured by ultrasound. Brain lesions were detected by magnetic resonance. Correlation between demyelinating lesions of the brain in multiple sclerosis and optic nerve diameter was tested by Kruskal-Wallis test. Significant difference in diameter between healthy and affected optic nerve in acute retrobulbar neuritis was found. Demyelinating brain changes examined by magnetic resonance revealed periventricular lesions, subcortical lesions and lesions in corpus callosum. There is statistically significant correlation between optic nerve diameter and number of brain lesions in multiple sclerosis, p < 0.05. Diameter of optic nerve in retrobulbar neuritis measured by ultrasound correlates with brain lesions detected by magnetic resonance in multiple sclerosis.  相似文献

The ependyma was investigated in five areas of the rat ventricle system by means of both light and electron microscopy. The columnar, cuboidal and flattened types of the ependymal cells were mainly seen. All of them were seen in the fourth ventricle, while in the aqueductus cerebri and in the central canal the flattened type of the cell was lacking. An unusual variation as to the form of the ependymal cells was found on the roof of the fourth ventricle. Three groups of intraventricular structures were found in all investigated parts of the ventricle system: supraependymal globular structures containing irregularly arranged cristae, supraependymal protrusions appearing as homogeneous contents, and nerve profiles including nerve endings and nerve axons. The morphological characteristics of the ependyma and intraventricular profiles in the fourth ventricle allow to suppose a certain role of these structures in the exchange of various materials between the CSF, ependyma and neuropile.  相似文献

Summary The ependyma of the lateral ventricle of the rat brain was investigated at different ages from 20 days to adulthood.A particular cell type occurs in the external wall of the ventricle, where the proliferative subependymal layer is present. These cells found at all ages studied, are characterized by a high content of glycogen, and a structure different of typical ependymal cells.A large number of nerve endings is situated in close vicinity of these cells, either free in the ventricle lumen, or sometimes ensheathed in the cells. No synapse was found between these endings an the glycogen-rich cells.These glycogen-rich cells undergo several modifications with age: their glycogen content is reduced in the adult, and they acquire a few cilia and gliofilaments. It is suggested that they represent a transitory differentiation of the ependyma, functionally linked with the proliferative subependymal layer.

Summary The density, distribution and the pharmacologically produced changes of a formaldehyde-induced yellow supra-ependymal fluorescence in the lateral and third ventricles and in the aqueduct of the rat brain are described. The fluorescence consists of small spots or a thin spotted layer just above the ependymal cells. The highest fluorescence densities occur in the areas near the tela chorioidea of the third ventricle and in the interventricular foramen. A high to moderate density occurs in the lateral ventricles and in the aqueduct. Little or no fluorescence is seen above the hypothalamic areas bordering the third ventricle. The fluorescence rapidly fades upon irradiation with violet-blue light, disappears after treatment of the rats with reserpine or p-chlorophenylalanine, is intensified after nialamide or reserpine + nialamide, and does not change after -methyl-p-tyrosine.Electron microscopically supra-ependymal varicose nerves containing small (500 Å) and large (1000 Å) vesicles in the varicosities are observed in areas with supra-ependymal yellow fluorescence. A fine-structural cytochemical technique reveals the presence of a specific, chromaffine, reserpine-sensitive electron dense core in the small and large vesicles.The conclusion is drawn that a characteristically distributed population of supra-ependymal efferent nerve terminals containing an indolealkylamine, most probably 5-hydroxytryptamine, exists in the cerebral ventricles of the rat brain.The skilful assistance of Mr. R. Wybrecht and Mrs. G. Gschwind is gratefully acknowledged.  相似文献

This investigation was undertaken to clarify the three dimensional ultrastructure of the subependymal layer in relation with the ependymal cell layer in rat brain using the scanning electron microscope (SEM). The subependymal layer existing below the ependyma of the third ventricle in the brain of mature albino rats was examined with S E M. The hypothalamus freshly excised after median sagittal section was treated by collagenase with or without trypsin for a short while to remove the ependymal cells at the ventricular wall. After the enzymatic pretreatment of the specimen, many ependymal cells were removed and the subependymal layer was partially exposed. Most of the ciliated ependymal cells remaining at the ventricular wall extended long, single basal processes which then penetrated into the subependymal layer. The subependymal layer was composed of a delicate framework of thin processes of glial cells, ependymal cells and, in addition nerve cells. Scattered among the neuropil just beneath the ependymal cell layer, there were relatively small, globular subependymal cells. Occasionally, there were large bundles of unmyelinated nerve fibres in the subependymal layer. The individual nerve fibres distinctly showed many axonal varicosities within the fibres. Intermingled with the nerve fibres, glial processes of various forms were present. The structure of the ependymal cells and the subependymal layer was compared with the findings already reported in the studies using light and transmission electron microscope.  相似文献

Summary The scanning electron microscope was used to survey the brain ventricular system of the female armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) with emphasis on the third ventricle. The walls of the lateral ventricles, aqueduct, and fourth ventricle are covered by long cilia. In the lateral ventricle, the cilia are arranged in groups; but in the aqueduct and fourth ventricle, they are evenly placed over the cellular surfaces. The ependymal cells of the third ventricle are densely ciliated except for the organum vasculosum and infundibular recess. The non-ciliated luminal surface of these areas has a pebblestone appearance punctuated by numerous microvilli and two types of supraependymal cells.Supported by Edward G.

—The regional distributions of cystathionine synthase, cystathionine and taurine in the brain of the Rhesus monkey were determined at various stages of foetal and postnatal development. Activity of cystathionine synthase was highest in cerebellum, cortical grey areas and globus pallidus, and lowest in subcortical white matter and corpus callosum. There was no marked change in activity in any area during development from the first-trimester foetus to the juvenile animal. In the brain of the juvenile monkey concentrations of cystathionine were highest in subcortical white matter, corpus callosum, and globus pallidus, and lowest in cortical grey matter. There was a sharp increase in concentration between late foetal life and the first 2 weeks of postnatal life and a subsequent more gradual increase during the next 2 years. Concentrations of taurine were highest in lateral cerebellum and neostriatum and lowest in brain stem areas and spinal cord. During the first 6 months of postnatal life, there was a marked decrease in concentration as the brain matured. The regional distribution of cystathionine in brain suggests that this compound may be synthesized in the perikaryon of the nerve cell and transported down axons into white matter. The changes during development suggest the further possibility that cystathionine may have some relationship to myelin and/or myelination.  相似文献

Summary 14C-uridine or 14C-orotic acid was injected into the third or fourth brain ventricle of adult rats. The rate of incorporation of these precursors into the RNA of various brain regions was studied by autoradiography. 0.5 hour, 1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours after the injection of labelled uridine and/or orotic acid into the third ventricle, a very uneven labelling of different brain regions was observed. The highest grain density was found over the ventricular walls and in the closely adjacent brain tissue; the intensity of labelling decreased sharply with distance from the ventricular lumen. 24 hours after intraventricular injection, a medio-lateral gradient of grain density was no longer observed. An intense labelling of leptomeninx (especially at the base of the brain) and of ependymal cells was observed at all time intervals investigated. At time intervals 0.5–2 hours the grain density of these structures surpassed by a considerable amount the grain density over neurons, glial cells or neuropile.Two hours after the injection of 14C-orotic acid into the fourth ventricle, the grains were mainly localised over leptomeningeal cells and vessels at the base of the brain and in the adjacent narrow strip of brain tissue. The rest of the brain was only very faintly labelled.  相似文献

Observations were made on 11 brains from bowhead whales subsistence-harvested by Alaskan Eskimos under International Whaling Commission guidelines. This study is part of a larger project to determine the basic morphology of this endangered species. The bowhead brain is similar to other cetacean brains, particularly that of the southern right whale. Long olfactory peduncles are reflected upon the rostrodorsal surface of the cerebral hemispheres. Olfactory bulbs have not been recovered but are presumed to exist since nerve fibers have been identified histologically in the olfactory peduncles. The induseum griseum is evident on the corpus callosum. The hippocampus proper is small but protrudes into the lateral ventricle. The cruciate sulcus runs diagonally across the rostral surface, limiting a small frontal lobe. The structure of the floor of the sylvian fissure varies from a few short gyri radiating toward the circular sulcus to a more extensive and complex two-tiered arrangement including numerous gyri perpendicular to the gyrus bordering the paleocortex. Pineal-body-like tissue was present in one specimen. There is no interthalamic adhesion. The lateral geniculate body is elevated but smaller than the large medial geniculate body. The neurohypophysis was adherent on most brain specimens received.  相似文献
