Neuroaxonal dystrophy (NAD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by severe axonal swelling (spheroids) throughout the nervous system. In dogs, NAD has been reported in several breeds and a missense mutation in PLA2G6 gene has recently been identified in the Papillon dog NAD. Here we performed ultrastructural analysis to clarify the detailed ultrastructural features of the Papillon dog N...
OBJECTIVE Mutations in the gene encoding phospholipase A(2) group VI (PLA2G6) are associated with two childhood neurologic disorders: infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD) and idiopathic neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA). INAD is a severe progressive psychomotor disorder in which axonal spheroids are found in brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. High globus pallidus i...
Genetic deficiency of NPC1 or NPC2 results in a devastating cholesterol-glycosphingolipidosis of brain and other organs known as Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease. While NPC1 is a transmembrane protein believed involved in retroendocytic shuttling of substrate(s) to the Golgi and possibly elsewhere in cells as part of an essential recycling/homeostatic control mechanism, NPC2 is a soluble lysos...
Neuritic degeneration is a prominent ultrastructural feature of scrapie in hamsters. To investigate the morphogenesis of neuritic degeneration, we examined brain tissues from hamsters infected with the 263K strain of scrapie virus and from age-matched controls at varying intervals following intracerebral inoculation. Dystrophic neurites--defined as dendrites, axonal preterminals, and myelinated...
During a 12-month period (1998-1999), microscopic evidence of neuroaxonal dystrophy (NAD) in medullae oblongata of raccoons (Procyon lotor) was observed in 17/39 (47% prevalence in adults) from Iowa, USA. Three of the animals were kits (<3 months), 26 were between 1 and 2 years, and 10 were over 7 years. Lesions were not seen in the medullae of the 3 kits. In young adults, the lesions were mild...
Distinctive axonal abnormalities in selected sympathetic ganglia of male and female Sprague-Dawley and male Fischer 344 rats have been characterized as a function of increasing age. Dilated intraganglionic axons contained a variety of unusual subcellular organelles, including large numbers of compact or loosely aggregated tubulovesicular profiles, layered membranous loops, and collections of no...
Calcium-independent group VIA phospholipase A2 (iPLA2beta) is considered to play a role in signal transduction and maintenance of homeostasis or remodeling of membrane phospholipids. A role of iPLA2beta has been suggested in various physiological and pathological processes, including immunity, chemotaxis, and cell death, but the details remain unclear. Accordingly, we investigated mice with tar...
