    Abstract Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a severe complication of preterm birth associated with cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, and commonly, accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Histologically, IVH leads to subependymal gliosis, fibrosis, and disruption of the ependymal wall. Importantly, expression of aquaporin channels 1 and 4 (AQP1 and AQP4) regulating respectively, secretion and absorption of cerebrospinal fluids is altered with IVH and are associated with development of post hemorrhagic hydrocephalus. Human cord blood derived unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs), which we previously demonstrated to reduce the magnitude of hydrocephalus, as having anti-inflammatory, and beneficial behavioral effects, were injected into the cerebral ventricles of rabbit pups 18 h after glycerol-induced IVH. USSC treated IVH pups showed a reduction in ventricular size when compared to control pups at 7 and 14 days (both,

    Abstract Intracranial hemangiopericytomas are a rare type of primary brain tumor, representing only about 0.5% of all primary brain tumors. Even more rare is the co-existence of two juxtaposed primary brain tumors, termed a "collision" tumor. This report provides the first documentation in the literature of a hemangiopericytoma colliding with a meningioma, and recurring after treatment with gross total resection. Surgical samples were fully evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin and reticulin staining, as well as immunohistochemical analysis. Results were classically representative of a hemangiopericytoma (World Health Organization grade II) and of a meningioma (World Health Organization grade I). This report of a unique collision tumor not only augments the repertoire of collision tumor combinations described in literature but also provides follow-up on the clinical outcome of the patient, thereby raising clinically relevant issues ranging from presentation to treatment paradigms.

    Abstract Development of cortical interneurons continues until the end of human pregnancy. Premature birth deprives the newborns from the supply of maternal estrogen and a secure intrauterine environment. Indeed, preterm infants suffer from neurobehavioral disorders. This can result from both preterm birth and associated postnatal complications, which might disrupt recruitment and maturation of cortical interneurons. We hypothesized that interneuron subtypes, including parvalbumin-positive (PV

    Abstract Objective: To describe the pathological features of three very similar and unusual primary central nervous system tumors that are not readily recognized as conventional ependymomas but which, by ultrastructural examination, have an ependymomatous character.
    Methods: Three distinctive tumors were found in a review of our files for cases of ependymoma. In each case, hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections were reviewed, and immunostains for epithelial membrane antigen, cytokeratin, vimentin, and glial fibrillary acidic protein were performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections. Electron microscopy was performed in each case.
    Results: The tumors had a diffuse myxoid background, often containing tightly clustered cells that mimicked multinucleated giant cells, but lacking perivascular pseudorosettes or central lumen rosettes. Glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin immunostains did not reveal perivascular processes. Epithelial membrane antigen immunostains showed a dot-like cytoplasmic immunoreactivity in some cell clusters in two of the three cases. Cytokeratin was negative in all three cases. However, ultrastructurally, the cells of each tumor had extensive surface microvilli; the giant cell-like clusters had cells with extensive close appositions, some junctions, and, in two cases, lumina with microvilli. Two of the patients were adults (both with temporal lobe tumors), and one patient was 13 years old and had a cervical spinal cord intramedullary tumor. Each tumor was sharply circumscribed from adjacent central nervous system tissue but was not encapsulated. One of the cases in an adult was mitotically highly active; this tumor recurred locally 4 years after initial gross total excision.
    Conclusion: These tumors are unusual variants of ependymoma. This pattern of ependymoma is sufficiently distinctive to be recognized in hematoxylin and eosin stains once the architecture of the epithelioid clusters is appreciated.

    Abstract Background: A 77-year-old retired research pharmacologist with a long-standing history of anemia and a recent pathologically confirmed diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome was referred to a stroke unit for evaluation of slowly progressive cognitive deterioration, confusion and paroxysmal stroke-like episodes. A previous neurological work-up had revealed no noteworthy abnormalities except for chronic bilateral caudate infarctions seen on MRI and CT examinations of the brain.
    Investigations: Physical examination, laboratory testing, brain MRI scanning, EEG, transesophageal echocardiography, cerebral angiography, CT scanning, and brain biopsy.
    Diagnosis: Intravascular lymphomatosis of the brain.
    Management: Combined chemotherapy with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) and rituximab.

    Abstract Introduction: The neuronal cell death that occurs after ischemia-induced cerebral infarction (stroke) contains elements of apoptosis and necrosis, an intermediary form of the two, and a distinct excitotoxic process. We previously developed a photochemical model of stroke in the rat. We have now adapted this model for use in the mouse. The present manuscript describes the mouse model.
    Methods: Minimal beam intensity (0.1 W/cm(2)) cold white light (8 min exposure) was used to evoke discrete infarcts in the parietal lobes of 11 mice sensitized by the administration of fresh Rose Bengal (10 mg/kg by rapid iv infusion).
    Results: At 2 h, five out of five mice and at 6 h, six out of six mice demonstrated light microscopic histologic features like those in the rat model. These included a superior ischemic zone with shrunken and pyknotic nuclei, a middle transition zone of edematous vacuolated neuropil but normal neurons with open chromatin and retained Nissl granules, and an inferior zone with normal neurons. There was widespread nuclear terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) in the superior infarct zone in 11/11 mice. However, in the edematous vacuolated transition zone, 11/11 mice had TUNEL positive and negative nuclei randomly mixed. Light microscopic analysis of that same transition zone showed no pyknosis or chromatin bodies in the TUNEL positive or negative cells.
    Discussion: In mice, photoactivation of Rose Bengal evoked similar infarct and transition zone patterns found previously in rats, with TUNEL evidence of apoptotic and nonapoptotic events. Thus, it will be possible to use this model for further quantitative study of apoptotic and excitotoxic events in wild and transgenic mice.
