Quantification of the pathological changes with laminar depth in the cortex in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease

The laminar distribution of the vacuolation ('spongiform change'), surviving neurons, glial cell nuclei, and prion protein (PrP) deposits was studied in the frontal, parietal and temporal cortex in 11 cases of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). The distribution of the vacuolation was mainly bimodal with peaks of density in the upper and lower cortical laminae. The density of surviving neurons was greatest in the upper cortex while glial cell nuclei were distributed largely in the lower cortex. PrP deposits exhibited either a bimodal distribution or reached a maximum density in the lower cortex. The vertical density of the vacuoles was positively correlated with the surviving neurons in 12/44 of cortical areas studied, with glial cell nuclei in 16/44 areas and with PrP deposition in 15/28 areas. PrP deposits were positively correlated with glial cell nuclei in 12/31 areas. These results suggest that in sporadic CJD: (1) the lower cortical laminae are the most affected by the pathological changes; (2) the development of the vacuolation may precede that of the extracellular PrP deposits and the glial cell reaction; and (3) the pathological changes may develop initially in the lower cortical laminae and spread to affect the upper cortical laminae. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

Spatial correlations between the vacuolation, prion protein deposits, and surviving neurons in the cerebral cortex in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease

In the cerebral cortex of cases of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD), the vacuolation (spongiform change) and PrP deposits are aggregated into clusters which are regularly distributed parallel to the pia mater. The objective of the present study was to determine the spatial relationships between the clusters of the vacuoles and PrP deposits and between the pathological changes and variations in the density of surviving neurons. In areas with low densities of pathological change, clusters of vacuoles were spatially correlated with the surviving neurons and not with the PrP deposits. By contrast, in more significantly affected areas, clusters of vacuoles were spatially correlated with those of the PrP deposits and not with the surviving neurons. In addition, areas with a high density of vacuoles and a low density of PrP deposits exhibited no spatial correlations between the variables. These data suggest that the spatial relationships between the vacuolation, PrP deposits and surviving neurons in sCJD depend on the density of lesions present. Differences in the pattern of correlation may reflect the developmental stage of the pathology in particular cortical areas.

Spatial correlations between the vacuolation, prion protein deposition and surviving neurons in variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD)

The histological features of cases of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) are often distributed in the brain in clusters. This study investigated the spatial associations between the clusters of the vacuoles, surviving neurons, and prion protein (PrP) deposits in various brain areas in 11 cases of vCJD. Clusters of vacuoles and surviving neurons were positively correlated in the cerebral cortex but negatively correlated in the dentate gyrus. Clusters of the florid and diffuse type of PrP deposit were not positively correlated with those of either the vacuoles or the surviving neurons although a negative correlation was observed between the florid plaques and surviving neurons in some cortical areas. Clusters of the florid and diffuse deposits were either negatively correlated or uncorrelated. These data suggest: 1) that clusters of vacuoles in the cerebral cortex are associated with the presence of surviving neuronal cell bodies, 2) that the clusters of vacuoles are not spatially related to those of the PrP deposits, and 3) different factors are involved in the pathogenesis of the florid and diffuse PrP deposits.
