    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der aus braunem Fettgewebe bestehende Scapularfettkörper der Ratte wurde zum morphologischen Nachweis seiner sympathischen Innervation licht- und elektronen-mikroskopisch untersucht. Fluorescenzmikroskopisch fanden sich zerstreut zwischen den braunen Fettzellen feine Nervenvaricositäten mit catecholamin [noradrenalin]-spezifischer Fluorescenz, die im braunen Fettgewebe reserpinbehandelter Tiere nicht mehr beobachtet wurde. Keine Fluorescenz war im Cytoplasma der braunen Fettzellen nachweisbar. Bei der elektronenmikroskopischen Untersuchung nach KMnO4-Fixierung fand sich eine Anzahl kleiner granulärer Vesikel (Durchmesser ca. 500 Å) in feinen marklosen Axonen oder Präterminalen, die intercellulär vorkommen. Gelegentlich beobachteten wir, wie sich feine Nervenendigungen mit einer großen Zahl von solchen Vesikeln eng an die Oberflächeneindellung einer braunen Fettzelle anlegten, wobei nur ein Spaltraum von 200 Å ohne darinliegende Basalmembran freiblieb. Nach Reserpin verminderten sich die Elektronendichte der Granula in den Vesikeln. Auf Grund unserer morphologischen Befunde und unter Berücksichtigung physiologischer und biochemischer Daten folgern wir, daß das braune Fettgewebe von sympathischen Nerven innerviert wird.
    Notes: Summary Interscapular brown adipose tissue of the rat was examined by means of fluorescence and electron microscopy, in order to provide a conclusive morphological basis for the sympathetic innervation of this adipose tissue. Fluorescence microscopically, we observed scattered fine nerve varicosities between the brown fat cells showing catecholamine [noradrenaline]-specific fluorescence. Such a fluorescence was not observed in brown adipose tissue from reserpinized animals. No fluorescence could be detected in the cytoplasm of brown fat cells. Electron microscopically, after KMnO4 fixation, a number of small granular vesicles (about 500 Å in diameter) were found in the fine non-myelinated axons or preterminals partially covered by Schwann cells in the intercellular space. Occasionally, a small axon terminal containing a number of such granular vesicles was located in a depression on the surface of a brown fat cell. There was then only a cleft of 200 Å and no basement membrane. After treatment of the animals with reserpine, the electron density of granules in the vesicles decreased. From our morphological findings as well as from other physiological and biochemical data, we conclude that brown adipose tissue is innervated by sympathetic nerves.

    Notes: Abstract The two patients in a family having the clinical and electrodiagnostic features of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN) are described. The main histological features of sural nerve were segmental demyelination and remyelination with moderate to marked loss of myelinated fibers, and myelin folding complex along all of the large and small myelinated fibers. These features appeared morphologically similar to those observed in HMSN with excessive myelin outfolding, or globular neuropathy. Southern blot analysis suggests that there were neither duplication nor deletion of the peripheral myelin protein-22 gene in the patients. The presented two patients may be a rare form of dominantly inherited HMSN with myelin folding complex.

    Notes: Summary To examine a possible cause of axonal dystrophy in the nucleus gracilis, dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons of rats were investigated by means of electron-microscopic autoradiography and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) tracing method. Following injections of tritiated amino acids into the L6 and S1 DRG, labeling was observed on the initial and halfway developed dystrophic terminals in the ipsilateral gracile nucleus. However, no grains or few, if any, were found on the well developed huge dystrophic endings. Compared with the thoracic and upper lumbar DRG, a decrease in velocity and amount of retrograde HRP transport was demonstrated in the lower lumbar and sacrococcygeal DRG neurons, especially of large cell diameter, irrespective of age of rats. These findings led us to conclude that the axonal dystrophy reflects a state of an anterograde overtransport of the axoplasm caused by a diminished retrograde transport which is specific to lower lumbar and sacrococcygeal DRG large neurons.

    Notes: Summary The neuropathological findings in a Japanese male with nephrosialidosis are reported. Clinically, coarse face, psychomotor retardation, macular cherryred spot and proteinuria were noted at 1 year and 7 months. He was diagnosed to have nephrosialidosis on the basis of a deficiency of α-neuraminidase activity in both lymphocytes and cultured skin fibroblasts, and of severe glomerular and tubular involvement on renal biopsy. He died of multiple organ failure at 8 years and 6 months. There were numerous vacuoles and storage materials in visceral organs, particularly in the glomerular and tubular epithelial cells of the kidney and Kupffer cells as well as hepatocytes in the liver. Neuropathological examination revealed severe neuronal storage in the selected part of the central nervous system; lower motor neurons of the brain stem and spinal anterior horn cells, as well as neurons in the basal nucleus of Meynert. In the peripheral nervous system, sympathetic ganglia were severely affected. There was little or no neuronal storage in the basal ganglia, cerebral cortex or cerebellum, and demyelination was not found. Electron microscopic examination showed fine wavy multilamellar structures in the spinal anterior horn cells or Zebra body-like structures in the neurons of the Meynert's basal nucleus. Lectin histochemistry was positive for wheat germ agglutinin, Ricinus communis agglutinin-1 and peanut agglutinin within distended neurons. We conclude that the neuropathological feature in nephrosialidosis is not specific except for the selectiveness of the anatomical sites of involvement. It shares some aspects found in other types of sialidosis or galactosialidosis.

    Notes: Abstract. The present report describes a plexiform schwannoma involving the subcutis of the foot in an 8-year-old boy. Gross findings revealed thin fibrous septa in a multilobulated tumor that was partly separated into free body-like nodules in the subcutis. Preoperative CT and MRI failed to delineate this multinodular architecture or free bodies. This is a case presentation including the CT and MR findings associated with plexiform schwannoma.

    Notes: Abstract. We report a case of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) of the thigh with lung metastases in a 22-year-old woman. The findings of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and MRI contributed to the diagnosis of ASPS. Especially dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI was useful for evaluating the effect of chemoembolotherapy.
