Abstract
At present there is increasing evidence concerning the value of minichromosome maintenance (MCM) protein expression as a novel indicator of proliferation. In the present study, 15 glioblastoma samples, classified according to WHO, were analysed to evaluate the expression of the principal proliferation markers. The samples examined were subdivided into 2 cytological subsets, small cell (SC) or multiforme cell (MC) glioblastoma, according to the predominant cell type defined in individual specimens. MCM7 detected more cells in the cycle than Ki67 and PCNA and all cases of SC glioblastoma, the most aggressive subset, displayed a significant increase of MCM7-stained nuclei versus those stained with Ki67. These results suggest that the cell cycle-associated proteins MCM are not only useful markers of proliferation, but also valid aids for diagnosis in cerebral glioblastoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this randomized phase III study, the effectiveness as well as the side-effects of intraarterial [i.a.] (17 patients) versus intravenous [i.v.] (16 patients) ACNU [Nimustine] administration in newly diagnosed glioblastoma, were compared. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients undenwent extensive surgical resection, and both groups were homogeneous for the other known risk factors. Thirty-three patients with glioblastoma were treated with ACNU at the dose of 80-100 mg/m2. Treatment was repeated every 5-8 weeks for a minimum of 2 and maximum of 14 cycles. Total survival time (TST) and to time to progression were chosen as outcome variables. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION No significant differences in systemic and hematological toxicity between the i.a. and iv. ACNU administration routes were detected. In both groups, tolerance of the procedure was excellent. Analysis of the main outcome measured showed no significant differences between i.a. and i.v. ACNU administration: time to progression was 6 months for i.a. ACNU and 4 months for i.v. ACNU and total survival time was 17 months for i.a. ACNU and 20 months for i.v. ACNU. In spite of ACNU dose incrementation, obtained through i.a. route administration, and subsequent higher concentration in the tumor bed, no improvement could be achieved in effectiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) refers to a monophasic acute multifocal inflammatory CNS disease. However, both relapsing and site-restricted variants, possibly associated with peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement, are also observed, and a systematic classification is lacking. OBJECTIVE To describe a cohort of postinfectious ADEM patients, to propose a classification based on clinical and instrumental features, and to identify subgroups of patients with different prognostic factors. METHODS Inpatients of a Neurologic and Infectious Disease Clinic affected by postinfectious CNS syndrome consecutively admitted over 5 years were studied. RESULTS Of 75 patients enrolled, 60 fulfilled criteria for ADEM after follow-up lasting from 24 months to 7 years. Based on lesion distribution, patients were classified as encephalitis (20%), myelitis (23.3%), encephalomyelitis (13.3%), encephalomyeloradiculoneuritis (26.7%), and myeloradiculoneuritis (16.7%). Thirty patients (50%) had a favorable outcome. Fifteen patients (25%) showed a relapsing course. Poor outcome was related with older age at onset, female gender, elevated CSF proteins, and spinal cord and PNS involvement. All but two patients received high-dose steroids as first-line treatment, with a positive response in 39 (67%). Ten of 19 nonresponders (53%) benefited from high-dose IV immunoglobulin; 9 of 10 had PNS involvement. The data were not controlled. CONCLUSIONS A high prevalence of "atypical variants" was found in this series, with site-restricted damage or additional peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement. Prognosis and response to steroids were generally good, except for some patient subgroups. In patients with PNS involvement and steroid failure, a favorable effect of IV immunoglobulin was observed.

Abstract
METHOD The activity and amount of SOD1 in erythrocyte lysates and the plasma amino acid content were evaluated in four familial ALS patients bearing the L84F SOD1 mutation (fALS), in an asymptomatic family member with the mutation (L84F(5)), in sporadic ALS patients (sALS) and controls. Three of the fALS patients and the L84F(5) subject were tested once a year for three consecutive years. RESULTS At the first evaluation SOD1 activity was similar in controls, sALS and fALS; the amount of SOD1 protein was lower (P < 0.01) in fALS. In the subsequent 2 years, 34% and 52% decrease of SOD1 activity was recorded in fALS patients. The plasma amino acid pattern did not differ between controls and sALS, whereas fALS patients displayed high levels of plasma aspartate and glutamate. Aspartate was in the normal range but glutamate was still elevated in the subsequent evaluations. The L84F(5) subject had remarkably low levels of aspartate, glutamate and branched-chain amino acids. CONCLUSIONS The method of measuring mutant SOD1 amount is indirect but the results are indicative of a reduction of mutant SOD1 taking place during fast-worsening phases of the disease. Since the disease onset of fALS patients is 42.8 +/- 11.3 years and the L84F(5) family member is asymptomatic at the age of 66, low levels of excitotoxic and branched-chain amino acids in plasma may constitute a protective factor against disease development.

Abstract
Randomized Controlled Trials have not let established the best pharmacological management of Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM). High dose steroids are usually employed with good results, but in a few cases the clinical outcome is poor. In other patients, particularly those affected by the site restricted ADEM variants (myelitis), the disease shows a recurrent course resembling that of Multiple Sclerosis. We present here five patients, 3 of them affected by classic disseminated encephalomyelitis and 2 by a post infectious myelitis, which showed a good response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) after steroid treatment failure. In our report high dose steroids administration was substantially uneffective in all but one case, who showed a good response only during the first episode. On the contrary IVIg injection (0,4 gr/kg/day) produced a marked functional improvement in all patients starting within the first five days of drug administration and reaching a maximum within three weeks. One patient experienced a good effect nothwithstanding a steady dysability. In all cases, clinical evidence was supported by MRI controls showing improving posttreatment changes.

Abstract
The study of the nucleophilic degradation of S8 by the methanide complex [Mn(CO)4[(PPh2)2CH]] (2) has led to the preparation of a unique class of polysulfide derivatives of formula [(CO)4Mn[(PPh2)2C-Sn-C(PPh2)2]-Mn(CO)4]. The structures of 3 (n = 6), 4 (n = 2), and 7 (n = 1) have been determined by X-ray crystallography, whereas those polysulfides with the sulfur chains S7, S5, S4, and S3 have been detected by spectroscopic methods. The polysulfides with n > 2 lose sulfur spontaneously, a process that can be accelerated by treatment with PPh3 or Na/Hg. Complexes 3, 4, and 7 were protonated at the two methanide carbon atoms to give the cationic dinuclear derivatives [(CO)4Mn[(PPh2)2C(H)-Sn-C(H)-(PPh2)2]Mn(CO)4]2+ (8, n=6; 9, n=2; 10, n = 1). The 1H NMR spectrum of 9 suggests the existence of intramolecular C-H...S interactions, in agreement with the X-ray structural determination of this complex. By treatment of 4 and 7 with one equivalent of HBF4 it is possible to selectively protonate just one methanide carbon atom, which allows the isolation of the mixed cationic derivatives R(CO)4Mn[(PPh2)2C(H)-Sn-C(PPh2)2]Mn(CO)4]+ (11, n = 2; 6, n = 1). Additionally, heterometallic complexes containing a bridging disulfide unit, of general formula [(CO)4Mn[(PPh2)2C(AuPPh3)S-SC-(AuPPh3)(PPh2)2]Mn(CO)4]2+ (12) and [(CO)4Mn[(PPh2)2C(H)S-SC(AuPPh3)-(PPh2)2]Mn(CO)4]+ (13), were prepared by reaction of 4 and 11, respectively, with [AuCl(PPh3)] in the presence of TlPF6.

Abstract
The authors report on an Italian family with eight affected members who show autosomal dominant migraine with prolonged visual, sensory, motor, and aphasic aura. These symptoms are associated with white matter abnormalities on brain MRI. All living affected members carry a Notch3 mutation (Arg153Cys) previously reported in cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). White matter abnormalities occur in a variable percentage of the general migraine population; CADASIL should be suspected in migraineurs with prolonged atypical aura and white matter abnormalities.

Abstract
Rhombencephalosynapsis (RS) is a rare cerebellar malformation. Its essential features are the absence of the incisura cerebelli posterior, fusion of the cerebellar hemispheres, the absence of the velum medullare anterius and nuclei fastigii, and fusion of the dentate nuclei, which are shifted towards the mid-line. Clinically, affected patients present with signs of cerebellar and motor disturbances. The present report describes a new patient affected by RS. The subject first presented at the age of 22 years because of a psychiatric symptomatology which was characterized by obsessive oral self-mutilation associated with an intellectual disability. Objective evaluation documented dysmorphic features, while neurological examination showed only a slight truncal ataxia. The subject's IQ was 74 on the Wechsler Scale (verbal IQ = 79, performance IQ = 74). Psychiatric evaluation with DSM-IV criteria documented an obsessive-compulsive personality disorder associated with emotional instability and oral self-mutilation. The typical picture of rhombencephalosynapsis was evident on magnetic resonance imaging. Both chromosomal analysis and routine biochemical investigations were normal. The relationship between oral self-injurious behaviour and cerebellar malformations is discussed with particular regard to the behavioural aspects of cerebellar congenital pathology in affective disorders and in autism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study three new apparently unrelated Italian families with ALS and several sporadic ALS patients living in the same rural area. BACKGROUND One Italian family with ALS carrying a superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutation (G41S) and no regional ALS clustering has been reported in Italy. METHODS Genetic analysis was performed by automated and manual sequencing of the SOD1 gene in 13 family members and in 6 of 10 unrelated patients with sporadic cases of ALS living in the same area. The authors also determined SOD1 activity in erythrocytes and lymphocytes. RESULTS The three families included a total of 28 affected members distributed over six generations. Despite a wide variability in age at onset and disease duration, the clinical pattern is uniform, with onset in the lower limbs, ascending progression, and predominant lower motor neuron involvement in all subjects. Generational anticipation is evident in the last two generations. All familial ALS patients and one of the six sporadic patients carry the same L84F missense point mutation in exon 4 of the SOD1 gene. SOD1 enzyme activity and SOD1 protein levels were not decreased significantly in the L84F patients. CONCLUSION The ALS patients carrying the L84F mutation derive from a common ancestor. This mutation is responsible for ALS clustering in the area. The L84F mutation does not modify SOD1-specific activity.

Abstract
The ability of the T cell growth factor interleukin-2 (IL-2) to support the proliferation of human glioblastoma cells in short-term cultures was evaluated. A morphological, cytochemical and immunocytochemical analysis was carried out at different times of treatment. In the presence of IL-2 growth of tumor cells was observed. On the contrary, in the absence of IL-2 only few colonies derived from tumor fragments were obtained and these were so after a long time. The immunocytochemical study revealed that IL-2 induces the expression of the IL-2 receptor on human glioblastoma cells. In the presence of IL-2 proliferation of infiltrating lymphoid cells inside the tumor fragments was also observed. Morphological and cytochemical analysis of these cells revealed positivity for acid phosphatase (AP), dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), dipeptydilaminopeptidase (DAP IV) and negativity for serine esterase. These data are in agreement with our previous study on activated lymphoid subsets. On the other hand, an absence of infiltrating lymphocytes was observed in cultures without IL-2. These results indicate that local treatment of human glioblastoma using IL-2 might produce tumor cell proliferation.

Abstract
We report the absence of superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) gene mutations in 30 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) including individuals with a confirmed family history of ALS (familial ALS/FALS), ALS with an unclear family history (UFALS) and sporadic ALS (SALS). Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and sequence analysis of the 5 SOD-1 gene exons were undertaken to improve the accuracy of the mutation detection. Our preliminary data appear to diverge from the results of studies by other groups using different populations. We discuss the possible reasons for this disparity and the apparent heterogeneous distribution of ALS with SOD-1 gene mutations among different ethnic groups.

Abstract
The Differential Display Reverse Transcriptase (DDRT) technique was adopted to isolate genetic markers specific for the two main grades of the Glial tumor, the Astrocytoma and the Glioblastoma. A total of 16 brain biopsies (4 Astrocytoma and 12 Glioblastoma) were analysed. The technique was modified in order to reduce the false-positive ratio by means of more stringent amplification conditions. Electrophoretic patterns with previously selected arbitrarily primers revealed differences between the grades, four of them were investigated through sequencing. These sequences did not show significant nucleotide and aminoacid similarity to any known sequences in the DataBase. Sensitivity of the method was documented by the evidence that only one of the selected markers was an artefact, while the others represented genetic markers of the human Glial neoplasm.
