Lysosome abnormalities and lipofucsin content of nerve cells of oedematous human cerebral cortex.
Lysosome alterations and lipofucsin content of nerve cells, capillary endothelial cells and pericytes were examined in the anoxic-ischaemic brain parenchyma of thirty two patients with congenital hydrocephalus, complicated brain traumatic injuries, brain tumours and vascular anomalies. Cortical biopsies of frontal, parietal and temporal cortex were processed for transmission electron microscopy. In oedematous non pyramidal and pyramidal nerve cells, lysosomes showed fragmentation of their limiting membranes and an associated dense granulation. Areas of cytoplasmic focal necrosis were observed surrounding the lysosomes. Lipofucsin granules were also observed in neonate and infant patients with congenital hydrocephalus, suggesting that lipofucsin formation is a life span process. Lysosomes coexisting with an increased amount of lipofucsin granules were observed in young and adult patients with brain trauma, tumours and vascular anomalies. Phagocytic astrocytes and activated oligodendroglial cells showed the overall spectrum of an altered endosomal/lysosomal system. Lipofucsin granules and multivesicular bodies also were distinguished in endothelial and pericyte cells. The role of released and activated lysosomal enzymes is discussed in relation with the cytoplasmatic focal necrosis of nerve cells and the genesis of moderate and severe oedema.
