    Notes: Summary We report a case of cerebral gangliocytoma (GC) with a variety of unusual structures in the tumor cells. Light microscopically, the tumor consisted of typical ganglion cells, atypical cells which has argyrophilic granules in the cytoplasm, and a few astrocytes. Electron microscopically, the tumor cells showed typical gangliocytic features, which had abundant rough endoplasmic reticula, ribosomes and cored vesicles of 90–150 nm diameter, a few 50-nm-diametered non-cored vesicles, and other common organelles in their cytoplasm. Furthermore, neoplastic ganglion cells contained a variety of abnormal structures, including membranous cytoplasmic bodies (MCB), Zebra bodies (ZB), tubular structures, branched tubular structures (BTS), concentrical laminated bodies and curvilinear bodies (CB). The MCB, ZB and CB resembled those in GM2 gangliosidosis (GMG), and the BTS that in infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD). Although the significance of these inclusions is still unknown, it is considered that some common mechanism might play a role in the metabolism of both neoplastic neuronal cells and degenerating neurons (GMG and INAD). Synapses could not be observed anywhere despite complete neuronal differentiation of many tumor cells.

    An autopsy case of peroneal muscular atrophy with rigidity and tremor (1990)

    Notes: Summary An autopsy case of hereditary peroneal muscular atrophy (PMA) with rigidity and static tremor is presented. The patient developed slowly progressive distal muscular atrophy of the legs at the age of 15 years. By the age of 52 years, PMA became marked associated with pes cavus, and tremor and rigidity of the extremities were noted. Motor and sensory conduction velocities gradually depressed and lost near the end of his life. At autopsy, the major neuropathological abnormalities involved the peripheral nervous systems, and were characterized by axonal atrophy and loss of myelinated fibres. These changes involved both the proximal and distal nerves, being more severely affected in the distal. The pathological changes in other regions of the nervous systems were mainly confined to the spinal cord, dorsal ganglia and spinal nerve roots, and pigmented neurons in the brain stem. Morphometrically, the total fascicular area was much smaller than in control, but the total number of myelinated fibers greatly outnumbered that of control 75 200 to 48 200 at the proximal sciatic nerve and then gradually decreased towards the periphery; however, even in the distal sural nerve, the total number of myelinated fibers exceeded that of control (6820 to 5469). Thus, the density of myelinated fibers were much higher, being 1.5 to 2 times greater, than in control. Its abrupt decline at the distal nerve might account for neurogenic atrophy of the distal musculature. Unmyelinated fibers were slightly increased in density and not atrophic. This case is unique in its clinicopathology and does not belong to any subtypes of PMA including “neuronal plus”.

    Target-targetoid phenomenon of the human muscle fibers (1977)
    Springer

    Notes: Summary Target and targetoid fibers in a muscle biopsy from a patient with paralysis of the deltoid and supraspinatus muscles were studied by light and electron microscopy. The probable cause of the neuropathy was tumor compression. Target and targetoid change was exclusively confined to hypertrophic or normal-sized fibers. Morphometric evaluation of the target and targetoid fibers showed no significant difference between them. With the electron microscope, up to 4 structural zones were seen in the typical target fiber but many were devoid of either zone 2 (halo) or zone 3, or both. It was conceivable that focal irregularity and streaming of Z-bands were the primary alterations in the process of target-targetoid fiber formation, and that this phenomenon was induced both by partial residual innervation as well as re-innervation.

    Cerebral neuroblastoma (1978)

    Notes: Summary A cerebral neuroblastoma removed surgically from a female child is presented. Electron microscopy showed numerous neuronal processes with growth cones which are a feature of the developing neurone. In addition there were some rosettes with distinct lumina. The luminal surfaces were covered with a smooth plasma membrane lacking any surface differentiation and the lateral surface of these cells had many cell junctions (terminal bars), reminiscent of a primitive neural tube. These features in a nerve cell tumor help to substantiate it as a neuroblastoma arising from immature rather than differentiated cells. The nature of this rare tumor is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Measurements of the positron lifetime and Doppler-broadened annihilation-radiation have been performed in electron-irradiated GaAs. The positron lifetime at the irradiation induced defects was ∼0.250 ns at 300 K. The defect clustering stage was found to occur at around 520–620 K, and the coarsening and annealing stage is believed to be above 620 K. Similar annealing stages were also observed in GaAs lightly doped with Si (0.2×1018 cm−3). Both the lifetime and the S-parameter in the irradiated GaAs were found to decrease with temperature from 300 K to 100 K, suggesting the coexistence of shallow traps in electron irradiated GaAs.

    Defect study of proton-irradiated liquid-encapsulated Czochralski GaAs using the positron-annihilation technique (1995)

    Notes: Abstract The positron lifetime of undoped Liquid-Encapsulated Czochralski (LEC)-GaAs and Si-doped (1.3×1018 cm−3) LEC-GaAs was measured before and after irradiation with protons (dose 1×1015/cm2, 15 MeV). In Si-doped GaAs, the decrease of positron lifetime at temperatures between 10 and 300 K are due to the decrease of the positron-diffusion length and the increase of the effective shallow traps such as antisite GaAs. The annealing stage of the proton-irradiation-induced defects which show the different behavior from that of electron-irradiation-induced defects suggests that proton irradiation creates more complicated defect complexes, containing vacancies rather than isolated vacancy-type defects or simple complexes which have been observed during electron-irradiation processes. Above 700 K, proton-irradiation-induced defects such as vacancy-type defects and simple vacancy complexes are almost annealed out, while Si-induced defects such as SiGa-VGa complexes cannot be annealed out above 973 K.
