Extractions: Outline Graphics Abstract Two unrelated and previously healthy girls, aged 17 and 18, presented with a subacute encephalopathy, visual and sensory symptoms and signs, and prominent seizures that were difficult to control. Brain MRI showed lesions (high signal on T2 weighted images) in the occipital lobes and thalamus; EEG showed slow wave activity with superimposed polyspikes. Inexorable downhill progression led to death in hepatic failure within eight months of onset. Histopathological findings in both patients ((a) chronic hepatitis with prominent bile duct proliferation, fatty change, and fibrosis; (b) in the brain a patchy destruction of the cerebral cortex, predominantly involving striate cortex) were characteristic of progressive neuronal degeneration of childhood with liver diseaseAlpers-Huttenlocher syndromea rare autosomal recessive disorder usually seen in infants and young children.

BRIEF HISTORICAL FACTS Cambyses, King of Persia in the sixth century B.C., had the dubious distinction of being one of the first alcoholics on record. People of many other early cultures, including the Egyptian, Greek and Roman, made extensive and often excessive use of alcohol. Beer was first made in Egypt around 3000 B.C. The oldest surviving winemaking formulas were recorded by Marcus Cato in Italy almost a century and a half before the birth of Christ. About 800 A.D. the process of distillation was developed by an Arabian alchemist, thus making possible an increase in both the range and the potency of alcoholic beverages. A SOCIAL REALITY Prohibition Prohibition is the forbidding by law of the manufacture, sale, or transportation of alcoholic beverages. Such beverages include beer, gin, rum, whisky and wine. The term Prohibition Era refers to the period of national prohibition that lasted from

Extractions: Published on line in February 2000 CLINICAL HISTORY: GROSS AND MICROSCOPIC DESCRIPTION: The only gross abnormalities were slight dilation of the lateral ventricles and a gray discoloration near the junction of cortex and white matter near the motor cortex. On microscopic examination there was striking vacuolation of the deep fronto-parietal cortex and adjacent white matter. ( Fig. 1a , Luxol fast blue-PAS x 2.5). This change was seen to a varying degree in other cortical areas. Prominent pale vesicular astrocyte nuclei (Alzheimer type II glia) were seen in these regions of deep cortex, but were also present in other cortical areas and in the basal ganglia. Some Alzheimer type II glia in the deep cortex contained PAS positive intranuclear inclusions ( Fig. 1b

Extractions: Ricercatore Accademico Dr. Lorenzo Corsi Esperienze professionali: 1994-1995: Corso di perfezionamento in metodologia di laboratorio su ricerca del farmaco settore farmacologico Dept. Scienze Farmaceutiche Univ. di Modena. In questo periodo il Dott. Corsi ha svolto ricerche riguardanti la caratterizzazione di sostanze ad attivita' benzodiazepino-simile in substrati vegetali ed umani ed il loro ruolo in patologie neurodegenerative. Le ricerche hanno implicato l'uso di tecniche estrattive e di purificazione cromatografiche, prevedendo l'impiego di sistemi HPLC. Inoltre il Dott. Corsi ha acquisito tecniche di Binding radioisotopiche, valutando l'attivita' di tali composti sul sistema Gabaergico, con particolare riferimento al sito di legame per le benzodiazepine e al sito del GABA. In questo periodo il Dott. Corsi ha studiato i sistemi recettoriali periferici delle benzodiazepine (Pbr) con riferimento all'espressione del pbr in patologie neoplastiche in particolare nel carcinoma epatocellulare. Sono state perfezionate tecniche di preparazione di membrane epatiche per eseguire binding in frazioni subcellulari (mitocondri, nuclei) ed inoltre sono state approfondite le conoscenze sulle tecniche di binding del Pbr. Le ricerche hanno riguardato anche la valutazione in liquidi biologici di pazienti e tessuti, di putativi ligandi endogeni del Pbr, quali Diazepam Bining Inhibitor (DBI) porfirine e colesterolo.

Preview : Myoclonic and choreic disorders encompass a wide range of manifestations, from simple jerking during sleep in neurologically normal persons to wild, potentially injurious flailing in patients with ballismus. Recognition of the type and cause of the disorder is the first step toward helping patients achieve better functioning when possible. Dr Caviness reviews classification of myoclonus and chorea and discusses appropriate evaluation and the available treatment options.
