    Abstract This article focuses on neuropsychiatric clinical expression and neuropathology associated with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), which is thought to develop years after traumatic brain injury. The incidence, prevalence, additional risk factors, and pathophysiology remain largely unknown. CTE is considered a tauopathy because the endogenous brain protein tau, in its hyperphosphorylated state (p-tau), defines the predominant neuropathological findings and may underlie aspects of cell toxicity, synapse and circuit dysfunction, and clinical signs and symptoms. We discuss pathophysiological mechanisms possibly affecting p-tau accumulation. Finally, we interweave how clinical features and neuroanatomical sites associated with CTE potentially intersect with posttraumatic stress disorder.

    Abstract Renal clear cell carcinoma commonly occurs in patients with von Hippel‑Lindau disease (VHL). Kidneys of VHL disease patients (VHL kidneys) contain an abundance of independent clear cell proliferation events that have been hypothesized to represent precursor structures of clear cell carcinoma. In the present study, it was tried to identify the site of origin of clear cell proliferation, and the immunophenotype of clear cells. Using 3D histological tracking, the topographic origin of microscopic clear cell proliferation was investigated by identification of informative structures of interest and immunohistochemical staining for cluster of differentiation 10 (CD10) and cytokeratin 7 (CK7) in consecutive serial sections. In addition, the CD10/CK7 immunophenotype of proliferating clear cells was evaluated. Clear cell proliferation uniformly occurred in the distal tubular system. Some clear cell proliferation, however, revealed proximal tubule immunophenotype. It was concluded that early proliferation of VHL‑deficient clear cells occurs in the distal tubular system. Despite the association with the distal tubular system, the immunohistochemical profile of early clear cell proliferation may be inconsistent with its distal tubular origin.

    Abstract Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neuropathologic diagnosis typically made in human brains with a history of repetitive traumatic brain injury (rTBI). It remains unknown whether CTE occurs exclusively after rTBI, or whether a single TBI (sTBI) can cause CTE. Similarly, it is unclear whether impact (eg, motor vehicle accidents) and non-impact (eg, blasts) types of energy transfer trigger divergent or common pathologies. While it is established that a history of rTBI increases the risk of multiple neurodegenerative diseases (eg, dementia, parkinsonism, and CTE), the possible pathophysiologic and molecular mechanisms underlying these risks have yet to be elucidated.

    Abstract With preferential use of high explosives in modern warfare, traumatic brain injury (TBI) has become a common injury for troops. Most TBIs are classified as "mild," although military personnel with these injuries can have persistent symptoms such as headache, memory impairment, and behavioral changes. During World War I, soldiers in the trenches, undergoing unrelenting artillery bombardment, suffered from similar symptoms, designated at the time as "shell shock." Dr Frederick Mott proposed studying the brains of deceased soldiers to elucidate the neuropathology of this clinical entity. Subsequent to a British government enquiry after World War I, the term "shell shock" was banned and further investigation into a possible organic cause for these symptoms was discontinued. Nevertheless, similar clinical entities, such as combat or battle fatigue and posttraumatic stress disorder, continue to be encountered by combatants in subsequent military conflicts. To this day, there exists a paucity of neuropathology studies investigating the effects of high explosives on the human brain. By analogy, studies have recently revealed that athletes with repeated head trauma can develop a neurodegenerative disease, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, who present with similar clinical features. Given current circumstance, we propose completing the work envisioned by Dr Mott almost 100 years ago.

    Abstract Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with repetitive mild impact traumatic brain injury from contact sports. Recently, a consensus panel defined the pathognomonic lesion for CTE as accumulations of abnormally hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau) in neurons (neurofibrillary tangles), astrocytes and cell processes distributed around small blood vessels at sulcal depths in irregular patterns within the cortex. The pathophysiological mechanism for this lesion is unknown. Moreover, a subset of CTE cases harbors cortical β-amyloid plaques. In this study, we analyzed postmortem brain tissues from five institutionalized patients with schizophrenia and history of surgical leucotomy with subsequent survival of at least another 40 years. Because leucotomy involves severing axons bilaterally in prefrontal cortex, this surgical procedure represents a human model of single traumatic brain injury with severe axonal damage and no external impact. We examined cortical tissues at the leucotomy site and at both prefrontal cortex rostral and frontal cortex caudal to the leucotomy site. For comparison, we analyzed brain tissues at equivalent neuroanatomical sites from non-leucotomized patients with schizophrenia, matched in age and gender. All five leucotomy cases revealed severe white matter damage with dense astrogliosis at the axotomy site and also neurofibrillary tangles and p-tau immunoreactive neurites in the overlying gray matter. Four cases displayed p-tau immunoreactivity in neurons, astrocytes and cell processes encompassing blood vessels at cortical sulcal depths in irregular patterns, similar to CTE. The three cases with apolipoprotein E ε4 haplotype showed scattered β-amyloid plaques in the overlying gray matter, but not the two cases with apolipoprotein E ε3/3 genotype. Brain tissue samples from prefrontal cortex rostral and frontal cortex caudal to the leucotomy site, and all cortical samples from the non-leucotomized patients, showed minimal p-tau and β-amyloid pathology. These findings suggest that chronic axonal damage contributes to the unique pathology of CTE over time.

    Abstract von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) patients develop highly vascular tumors, including central nervous system hemangioblastomas. It has been hypothesized that the vascular nature of these tumors is the product of reactive angiogenesis. However, recent data indicate that VHL-associated hemangioblastoma neoplastic cells originate from embryologically-arrested hemangioblasts capable of blood and endothelial cell differentiation. To determine the origin of tumor vasculature in VHL-associated hemangioblastomas, we analyzed the vascular elements in tumors from VHL patients. We demonstrate that isolated vascular structures and blood vessels within VHL-associated hemangioblastomas are a result of tumor-derived vasculogenesis. Further, similar to hemangioblastomas, we demonstrate that other VHL-associated lesions possess vascular tissue of tumor origin and that tumor-derived endothelial cells emerge within implanted VHL deficient UMRC6 RCC murine xenografts. These findings further establish the embryologic, developmentally arrested, hemangioblast as the tumor cell of origin for VHL-associated hemangioblastomas and indicate that it is also the progenitor cell for other VHL-associated tumors.
