Perilesional edema in radiation necrosis reflects axonal degeneration
BACKGROUND Recently, we characterized a Gamma Knife® radiation necrosis mouse model with various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocols to identify biomarkers useful in differentiation from tumors. Though the irradiation was focal to one hemisphere, a contralateral injury was observed that appeared to be localized in the white matter only. Interestingly, this injury was identifiable in T2-w...
متن کاملCalcified neurocysticercus, perilesional edema, and histologic inflammation.
Abstract. Here, we present the second report of the histopathology of a Taenia solium calcification giving rise to perilesional edema. This has important implications, because if perilesional edema lesions are inflammatory in character, immunosuppressive or anti-inflammatory medications, not just antiepileptic drugs alone, may be useful to prevent or treat recurring episodes in such patients.
متن کاملCalcified cysticerci provoke perilesional edema and seizures.
In cases of cysticercosis, seizures and other symptoms occur in persons with only calcified brain lesions. The presence of perilesional edema has been documented in association with calcified lesions in symptomatic patients, but the frequency of this complication and characteristics of the patients who develop it are not known. Patients in Peru and the United States with neurocysticercosis, doc...
متن کاملAxonal Degeneration: RIPK1 Multitasking in ALS
A recent study reports that microglia and oligodendrocytes promote motor neuron degeneration by inducing inflammation and necroptosis in a manner dependent on receptor-interacting kinase 1 (RIPK1). These findings could be significant for our understanding of the neurobiology and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
متن کاملRetrograde Axonal Degeneration in Parkinson Disease
In spite of tremendous research efforts we have not yet achieved two of our principal therapeutic goals in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD), to prevent its onward progression and to provide restoration of systems that have already been damaged by the time of diagnosis. There are many possible reasons for our inability to make progress. One possibility is that our efforts thus far may n...
