Abstract
Neuroimaging biomarkers that can detect white matter (WM) pathology after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and predict long-term outcome are needed to improve care and develop therapies. We used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) to investigate WM microstructure cross-sectionally and longitudinally after mTBI and correlate these with neuropsychological performance. Cross-sectionally, early decreases of fractional anisotropy and increases of mean diffusivity corresponded to WM regions with elevated free water fraction on NODDI. This elevated free water was more extensive in the patient subgroup reporting more early postconcussive symptoms. The longer-term longitudinal WM changes consisted of declining neurite density on NODDI, suggesting axonal degeneration from diffuse axonal injury for which NODDI is more sensitive than DTI. Therefore, NODDI is a more sensitive and specific biomarker than DTI for WM microstructural changes due to mTBI that merits further study for mTBI diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment monitoring.

Abstract
The accurate diagnosis and clinical management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is currently limited by the lack of accessible molecular biomarkers that reflect the pathophysiology of this heterogeneous disease. To address this challenge, we developed a microchip diagnostic that can characterize TBI more comprehensively using the RNA found in brain-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs). Our approach measures a panel of EV miRNAs, processed with machine learning algorithms to capture the state of the injured and recovering brain. Our diagnostic combines surface marker-specific nanomagnetic isolation of brain-derived EVs, biomarker discovery using RNA sequencing, and machine learning processing of the EV miRNA cargo to minimally invasively measure the state of TBI. We achieved an accuracy of 99% identifying the signature of injured vs. sham control mice using an independent blinded test set (N = 77), where the injured group consists of heterogeneous populations (injury intensity, elapsed time since injury) to model the variability present in clinical samples. Moreover, we successfully predicted the intensity of the injury, the elapsed time since injury, and the presence of a prior injury using independent blinded test sets (N = 82). We demonstrated the translatability in a blinded test set by identifying TBI patients from healthy controls (AUC = 0.9, N = 60). This approach, which can detect signatures of injury that persist across a variety of injury types and individual responses to injury, more accurately reflects the heterogeneity of human TBI injury and recovery than conventional diagnostics, opening new opportunities to improve treatment of traumatic brain injuries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the clinical profiles of individuals with dementia who do and do not report a history of TBI. INTRODUCTION Some evidence suggests that a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with an increased risk of dementia later in life. The clinical features of dementia associated with TBI have not been well investigated. While there is some evidence that TBI is associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), there are also indications that dementia associated with TBI has prominent behavioral, affective, and motor symptoms, making it distinct from AD. METHODS The current study involves secondary analysis of baseline data from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC) Uniform Data Set (UDS). RESULTS Individuals with dementia who reported a history of TBI had higher fluency and verbal memory scores and later onset of decline, but they are on more medications, had worse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health, were more likely to have received medical attention for depression, and were more likely to have a gait disorder, falls, and motor slowness. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that dementia among individuals with a history of TBI may represent a unique clinical phenotype that is distinct from known dementia subtypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND White matter (WM) integrity declines with normal aging. Physical activity may attenuate age-related WM integrity changes and improve cognitive function. This study examined brain WM integrity in Masters athletes who have engaged in life-long aerobic exercise training. We tested the hypothesis that life-long aerobic training is associated with improved brain WM integrity in older adults. METHODS Ten Masters athletes (3 females, age=72.2 ± 5.3 years, endurance training >15 years) and 10 sedentary older adults similar in age and educational level (2 females, age=74.5 ± 4.3 years) participated. MRI fluid-attenuated-inversion-recovery (FLAIR) images were acquired to assess white matter hyperintensities (WMH) volume. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was performed to evaluate the WM microstructural integrity with a DTI-derived metric, fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD). RESULTS After normalization to whole-brain volume, Masters athletes showed an 83% reduction in deep WMH volume relative to their sedentary counterparts (0.05 ± 0.05% vs. 0.29 ± 0.29%, p<0.05). In addition, we found an inverse relationship between aerobic fitness (VO2max) and deep WMH volume (r=-0.78, p<0.001). Using TBSS, Masters athletes showed higher FA values in the right superior corona radiata (SCR), both sides of superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF), right inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFO), and left inferior longitudinal fasciculus (ILF). In addition, Masters athletes also showed lower MD values in the left posterior thalamic radiation (PTR) and left cingulum hippocampus. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that life-long exercise is associated with reduced WMH and may preserve WM fiber microstructural integrity related to motor control and coordination in older adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have associated variants in late-onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD) susceptibility genes; however, these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have very modest effects, suggesting that single SNP approaches may be inadequate to identify genetic risks. An alternative approach is the use of multilocus genotype patterns (MLGPs) that combine SNPs at different susceptibility genes. METHODS Using data from 1,365 subjects in the National Institute on Aging Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease Family Study, we conducted a family-based association study in which we tabulated MLGPs for SNPs at CR1, BIN1, CLU, PICALM, and APOE. We used generalized estimating equations to model episodic memory as the dependent endophenotype of LOAD and the MLGPs as predictors while adjusting for sex, age, and education. RESULTS Several genotype patterns influenced episodic memory performance. A pattern that included PICALM and CLU was the strongest genotypic profile for lower memory performance (β = -0.32, SE = 0.19, p = 0.021). The effect was stronger after addition of APOE (p = 0.016). Two additional patterns involving PICALM, CR1, and APOE and another pattern involving PICALM, BIN1, and APOE were also associated with significantly poorer memory performance (β = -0.44, SE = 0.09, p = 0.009 and β = -0.29, SE = 0.07, p = 0.012) even after exclusion of patients with LOAD. We also identified genotype pattern involving variants in PICALM, CLU, and APOE as a predictor of better memory performance (β = 0.26, SE = 0.10, p = 0.010). CONCLUSIONS MLGPs provide an alternative analytical approach to predict an individual's genetic risk for episodic memory performance, a surrogate indicator of LOAD. Identifying genotypic patterns contributing to the decline of an individual's cognitive performance may be a critical step along the road to preclinical detection of Alzheimer disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several lines of evidence suggest that pathologic changes underlying Alzheimer disease (AD) begin years prior to the clinical expression of the disease, underscoring the need for studies of cognitively healthy adults to capture these early changes. The overall goal of the current study was to map the cortical distribution of β-amyloid (Aβ) in a healthy adult lifespan sample (aged 30-89), and to assess the relationship between elevated amyloid and cognitive performance across multiple domains. METHODS A total of 137 well-screened and cognitively normal adults underwent Aβ PET imaging with radiotracer (18)F-florbetapir. Aβ load was estimated from 8 cortical regions. Participants were genotyped for APOE and tested for processing speed, working memory, fluid reasoning, episodic memory, and verbal ability. RESULTS Aβ deposition is distributed differentially across the cortex and progresses at varying rates with age across cortical brain regions. A subset of cognitively normal adults aged 60 and over show markedly elevated deposition, and also had a higher rate of APOE ε4 (38%) than nonelevated adults (19%). Aβ burden was linked to poorer cognitive performance on measures of processing speed, working memory, and reasoning. CONCLUSIONS Even in a highly selected lifespan sample of adults, Aβ deposition is apparent in some adults and is influenced by APOE status. Greater amyloid burden was related to deleterious effects on cognition, suggesting that subtle cognitive changes accrue as amyloid progresses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify structural connectivity change occurring during the first 6 months after traumatic brain injury and to evaluate the utility of diffusion tensor tractography for predicting long-term outcome. METHODS The participants were 28 patients with mild to severe traumatic axonal injury and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy control subjects. Neuroimaging was obtained 0-9 days postinjury for acute scans and 6-14 months postinjury for chronic scans. Long-term outcome was evaluated on the day of the chronic scan. Twenty-eight fiber regions of 9 major white matter structures were reconstructed, and reliable tractography measurements were determined and used. RESULTS Although most (23 of 28) patients had severe brain injury, their long-term outcome ranged from good recovery (16 patients) to moderately (5 patients) and severely disabled (7 patients). In concordance with the diverse outcome, the white matter change in patients was heterogeneous, ranging from improved structural connectivity, through no change, to deteriorated connectivity. At the group level, all 9 fiber tracts deteriorated significantly with 7 (corpus callosum, cingulum, angular bundle, cerebral peduncular fibers, uncinate fasciculus, and inferior longitudinal and fronto-occipital fasciculi) showing structural damage acutely and 2 (fornix body and left arcuate fasciculus) chronically. Importantly, the amount of change in tractography measurements correlated with patients' long-term outcome. Acute tractography measurements were able to predict patients' learning and memory performance; chronic measurements also determined performance on processing speed and executive function. CONCLUSIONS Diffusion tensor tractography is a valuable tool for identifying structural connectivity changes occurring between the acute and chronic stages of traumatic brain injury and for predicting patients' long-term outcome.

Abstract
Sensitive and robust diagnostic biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) were sought using dynamic nonlinear models of the causal interrelationships among time-series (beat-to-beat) data of arterial blood pressure, end-tidal CO(2) and cerebral blood flow velocity collected in human subjects (4 AD patients and 4 control subjects). These models were based on Principal Dynamic Modes (PDM) and yielded a reliable biomarker for AD diagnosis in the form of the "Effective CO(2) Reactivity Index" (ECRI). The results from this initial set of subjects corroborated the efficacy of the ECRI biomarker for accurate AD diagnosis.

Abstract
Clinical observation of performance on the Logical Memory (LM) and Visual Reproduction (VR) subtests from the WMS-III has revealed some variability in retention rates across stories and figures. This paper examined the degree to which this variability occurs in lateralized temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) in comparison to a matched group from the WMS-III standardization sample, and explored whether analysis of qualitative aspects of LM and VR performance yield additional lateralizing information in TLE. Analysis of LM and VR scaled scores revealed differences between the TLE groups for LM, but not VR scores. All subjects benefited from repetition of LM Story B, with greater improvement in story retention in the Left versus Right TLE group. Variability in VR recall across figures was seen in all groups, with a bimodal distribution of retention rates for each figure and a sizable percentage of each group completely forgetting two or more figures. These results suggest that more careful analysis of individual LM story performance may be useful in some patients with TLE, whereas variability in VR retention across figures is common and should not be over interpreted.

Abstract
There is relatively little research pertaining to neuropsychological assessment of Spanish-speaking individuals with intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The current study examined verbal and visual memory performances in 38 primarily Spanish-speaking patients with TLE (Right = 15, Left = 23) of similar epilepsy duration to determine if lateralizing differences can be found using verbal and nonverbal memory tests. On a test specifically designed to assess auditory learning and memory among Spanish-speaking individuals, the Spanish Verbal Learning Test (SVLT), patients with left TLE performed significantly worse than patients with right TLE. In contrast, no significant differences in story or visual memory were seen using common memory tests translated into Spanish. Similar to what has been found in English speakers, these results show that verbal memory differences can be seen between left and right sided TLE patients who are Spanish-speaking to aid in providing lateralizing information; however, these differences may be best detected using tests developed for and standardized on Spanish-speaking patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the relationship between epidermal nerve fiber density (ENFD) in the leg and the phenotype of HIV-associated distal sensory polyneuropathy (HIV-DSP) in a multicenter prospective study (ACTG A5117). METHODS A total of 101 HIV-infected adults, with CD4 cell count <300 cells/mm(3) and who had received antiretroviral therapy (ART) for at least 15 consecutive weeks, underwent standardized clinical and electrophysiologic assessment. All 101 subjects were biopsied at the distal leg (DL) and 99 at the proximal thigh (PT) at baseline. ENFD was assessed by skin biopsy using PGP9.5 immunostaining. Associations of ENFD with demographics, ART treatment, Total Neuropathy Score (TNS), sural sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) amplitude and conduction velocity, quantitative sensory testing (QST) measures, and neuropathic pain were explored. RESULTS ENFD at the DL site correlated with neuropathy severity as gauged by TNS (p < 0.01), the level of neuropathic pain quantified by the Gracely Pain Scale (GPS) (p = 0.01) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) (p = 0.01), sural SNAP amplitude (p < 0.01), and toe cooling (p < 0.01) and vibration (p = 0.02) detection thresholds. ENFD did not correlate with neurotoxic ART exposure, CD4 cell count, or plasma HIV-1 viral load. CONCLUSIONS In subjects with advanced HIV-1 infection, epidermal nerve fiber density (ENFD) assessment correlates with the clinical and electrophysiologic severity of distal sensory polyneuropathy (DSP). ENFD did not correlate with previously established risk factors for HIV-DSP, including CD4 cell count, plasma HIV-1 viral load, and neurotoxic antiretroviral therapy exposure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between the apolipoprotein (ApoE) epsilon4 allele and memory performance (verbal and nonverbal) in patients with medically intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) who underwent temporal lobectomy. METHODS Presurgical and postsurgical memory performance was examined in 87 adult patients with TLE (epsilon4 = 22; non-epsilon4 = 65) to determine whether the expression of ApoE-epsilon4 may be associated with memory performance in this population and to examine how this relationship may be affected by duration of epilepsy. RESULTS There was a significant interaction between ApoE-epsilon4 status and duration of epilepsy such that epsilon4 carriers with a long duration of epilepsy demonstrated the poorest memory performance on both verbal and nonverbal measures. This relationship was observed both before and after temporal lobectomy, with little change in test performance over time. CONCLUSIONS The ApoE-epsilon4 allele interacts with longstanding seizures to affect memory performance, both verbal and nonverbal, in patients with medically intractable temporal lobe epilepsy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distal sensory polyneuropathy (DSP) is the most common neurologic complication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Risk factors for DSP have not been adequately defined in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy. METHODS The authors evaluated 101 subjects with advanced HIV infection over 48 weeks. Assessments included a brief peripheral neuropathy (PN) screen (BPNS), neurologic examination, nerve conduction studies, quantitative sensory testing (QST), and skin biopsies with quantitation of epidermal nerve fiber density. Data were summed into a Total Neuropathy Score (TNS). The presence, severity, and progression of DSP were related to clinical and laboratory results. RESULTS The mean TNS (range 0 to 36) was 8.9, with 38% of subjects classified as PN-free, 10% classified as having asymptomatic DSP, and 52% classified as having symptomatic DSP. Progression in TNS from baseline to week 48 occurred only in the PN-free group at baseline (mean TNS change = 1.16 +/- 2.76, p = 0.03). Factors associated with progression in TNS were lower current TNS, distal epidermal denervation, and white race. As compared with the TNS diagnosis of PN at baseline, the BPNS had a sensitivity of 34.9% and a specificity of 89.5%. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected subjects, distal sensory polyneuropathy was common and relatively stable over 48 weeks. Previously established risk factors, including CD4 cell count, plasma HIV RNA, and use of dideoxynucleoside antiretrovirals were not predictive of the progression of distal sensory polyneuropathy (DSP). Distal epidermal denervation was associated with worsening of DSP. As compared with the Total Neuropathy Score, the brief peripheral neuropathy screen had relatively low sensitivity and high specificity for the diagnosis of DSP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microvascular brain injury, typically measured by extent of white matter hyperintensity (WMH) on MRI, is an important contributor to cognitive impairment in the elderly. Recent studies suggest a role for circulating beta-amyloid peptide in microvascular dysfunction and white matter disease. METHODS The authors performed a cross-sectional study of clinical, biochemical, and genetic factors associated with WMH in 54 subjects with Alzheimer disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (AD/MCI) and an independent group of 42 subjects with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Extent of WMH was determined by computer-assisted volumetric measurement normalized to intracranial size (nWMH). Biochemical measurements included plasma concentrations of the 40- and 42-amino acid species of beta-amyloid (Abeta40 and Abeta42) detected by specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS Plasma Abeta40 concentrations were associated with nWMH in both groups (correlation coefficient = 0.48 in AD/MCI, 0.42 in CAA, p < or = 0.005). Plasma Abeta40 remained independently associated with nWMH after adjustment for potential confounders among age, hypertension, diabetes, homocysteine, creatinine, folate, vitamin B12, and APOE genotype. The presence of lacunar infarctions was also associated with increased Abeta40 in both groups. nWMH was greater in CAA (19.8 cm3) than AD (11.1 cm3) or MCI (10.0 cm3; p < 0.05 for both comparisons). CONCLUSIONS Plasma beta-amyloid 40 concentration is independently associated with extent of white matter hyperintensity in subjects with Alzheimer disease, mild cognitive impairment, or cerebral amyloid angiopathy. If confirmed in longitudinal studies, these data would suggest circulating beta-amyloid peptide as a novel biomarker or risk factor for microvascular damage in these common diseases of the elderly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is reported to be an independent risk factor for Alzheimer disease (AD) and cognitive decline. tHcy may potentiate neurotoxic and vasculopathic processes, including amyloid beta protein (Abeta) metabolism, implicated in neurodegenerative diseases. OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship of plasma total tHcy levels with clinical, demographic, biochemical, and genetic factors in aging, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), AD, cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), and Parkinson disease (PD). METHODS Plasma tHcy, folate, vitamin B(12), creatinine, and Abeta levels were assessed in individuals evaluated in the Memory, Stroke, and Movement Disorders Units of Massachusetts General Hospital with diagnoses of AD (n = 145), MCI (n = 47), PD (n = 93), CAA (67), hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (hICH) (n = 25), and no dementia (n = 88). RESULTS The tHcy levels did not differ across AD, MCI, CAA, hICH, and nondemented control subjects but were increased in the PD group (p < 0.01). The elevated levels within the PD group were due to high tHcy in individuals taking levodopa (p < 0.0001). Increasing tHcy was associated with worse cognition in the PD cases, but not the other diagnostic groups. tHcy levels positively correlated with plasma Abeta levels even after adjustments for age and creatinine (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Mean tHcy levels increased with age but did not discriminate diagnostic groups aside from significant elevation in patients with PD taking levodopa. The positive association between tHcy and plasma Abeta levels raises the possibility that these circulating factors could interact to affect AD risk and cognition in PD.

Abstract
Succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH5A1, encoding SSADH deficiency is a defect of 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation that manifests in humans as 4-hydroxybutyric (gamma-hydroxybutyric, GHB) aciduria. It is characterized by a non-specific neurological disorder including psychomotor retardation, language delay, seizures, hypotonia and ataxia. The current therapy, vigabatrin (VGB), is not uniformly successful. Here we report the development of Aldh5a1-deficient mice. At postnatal day 16-22 Aldh5a1-/- mice display ataxia and develop generalized seizures leading to rapid death. We observed increased amounts of GHB and total GABA in urine, brain and liver homogenates and detected significant gliosis in the hippocampus of Aldh5a1-/- mice. We found therapeutic intervention with phenobarbital or phenytoin ineffective, whereas intervention with vigabatrin or the GABAB receptor antagonist CGP 35348 (ref. 2) prevented tonic-clonic convulsions and significantly enhanced survival of the mutant mice. Because neurologic deterioration coincided with weaning, we hypothesized the presence of a protective compound in breast milk. Indeed, treatment of mutant mice with the amino acid taurine rescued Aldh5a1-/- mice. These findings provide insight into pathomechanisms and may have therapeutic relevance for the human SSADH deficiency disease and GHB overdose and toxicity.

Abstract
Adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of interferon gamma (AdIFN) elicits rejection of intracerebral Lewis lung carcinoma. In this system, gene transfer into brain parenchymal cells is both necessary and sufficient to generate the antitumor response. Despite persistent parenchymal inflammation and demyelination, wild-type mice injected intracerebrally with either AdIFN or beta-galactosidase adenovirus (AdBGAL) perform as well as non-injected animals in behavioral, memory, and motor tests. Both AdIFN and AdBGAL elicit demyelination whose incidence rises sharply when the lowest effective dose of AdIFN is exceeded. Therefore, transfer of interferon gamma into brain parenchyma does not seem to elicit detectable cognitive, behavioral or motor deficits. Furthermore, gene transfer into the brain, by adenoviral vectors currently in clinical trials, is associated with a narrow therapeutic window where the incidence of demyelination rises sharply soon after the effective dose is achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is controversy regarding the precise mechanism by which epilepsy results after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Previous reports have suggested that mesial temporal lobe epilepsy may result from TBI only in young children, while neocortical epilepsy arises from TBI in later life. These conclusions were based on surgical series and may be biased because of patient selection. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of mesial temporal lobe as opposed to neocortical epilepsy in patients with intractable epilepsy resulting from TBI after the age of 10 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified 23 patients with intractable epilepsy who had TBI after the age of 10 years, preceding the onset of epilepsy. Patients were studied by simultaneous videotape and scalp electroencephalographic recording of typical seizures; magnetic resonance imaging; neuropsychologic studies; and, when appropriate, intracarotid amobarbital testing. Two patients underwent anterior temporal lobectomies. RESULTS Of the 23 patients, 8 (35%) had mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, based on the finding of hippocampal sclerosis on a magnetic resonance imaging scan, consistent interictal and ictal electroencephalographic recordings, evidence of temporal lobe dysfunction on neuropsychologic testing, and characteristic seizure semiology. Two of these patients underwent anterior temporal lobectomies with clinical benefit, and hippocampal sclerosis was confirmed pathologically. In 2 cases, patients were not treated surgically because of bilateral temporal lobe dysfunction noted on intracarotid amobarbital testing. Eleven patients had neocortical epilepsy; 1 had primary generalized epilepsy; and, in 3, the site of seizure onset was not localized. CONCLUSIONS Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy can result from TBI in adolescents and adults as well as in children, and can often be bilateral and associated with multifocal injury. This information may be useful in developing prophylactic therapy for posttraumatic epilepsy.

Abstract
Over the last 10 years, there has been an explosion of interest in homocysteine, a sulfur-containing amino acid that occupies a central location in the metabolic pathways of thiol compounds. This interest is primarily because of the realization that hyperhomocysteinemia is an important risk factor for vascular disease, including stroke, independent of long-recognized factors such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and smoking. Since elevated homocysteine levels can often be normalized by supplementing the diet with folic acid (folate), pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B(6)), and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B(12)), these observations raise the exciting possibility that this inexpensive and well-tolerated therapy may be effective in decreasing the incidence of vascular disease. In addition to its association with cerebrovascular disease, homocysteine may play a role in neurodegenerative disorders, even if only as a marker of functional vitamin B(12) deficiency. Homocysteine is also important to neurologists since most anticonvulsants raise homocysteine levels, an effect that may explain the teratogenic effects of these drugs. Practical knowledge concerning some details of homocysteine metabolism, the diagnosis of hyperhomocysteinemia, and the use of polyvitamin therapy to lower homocysteine levels will be increasingly important in the treatment of patients with neurologic disease.

Abstract
We report a case of Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction in a patient with neurosyphilis, which was complicated by nonconvulsive status epilepticus. The EEG features suggested a focal seizure onset, although the patient's MRI was normal. JHR is common in the treatment of neurosyphilis, but usually produces only transient systemic constitutional symptoms. Neurologic deterioration is rare, but can be dramatic, as in our patient. NCSE should be considered as an explanation for persistent obtundation and transient focal neurologic findings in this setting.

Abstract
Neuronal PAS domain protein 2 (NPAS2) is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) PAS domain transcription factor expressed in multiple regions of the vertebrate brain. Targeted insertion of a beta-galactosidase reporter gene (lacZ) resulted in the production of an NPAS2-lacZ fusion protein and an altered form of NPAS2 lacking the bHLH domain. The neuroanatomical expression pattern of NPAS2-lacZ was temporally and spatially coincident with formation of the mature frontal association/limbic forebrain pathway. NPAS2-deficient mice were subjected to a series of behavioral tests and were found to exhibit deficits in the long-term memory arm of the cued and contextual fear task. Thus, NPAS2 may serve a dedicated regulatory role in the acquisition of specific types of memory.

Abstract
Zn2+ is present at high concentrations in mammalian brain, and is released in chelatable form after excitation of certain glutamatergic neurons. Recent observations suggest that it may play an important role in excitotoxic-induced neural injury. Ascorbic acid has been widely studied as a stimulator or an inhibitor of lipid-peroxide formation, depending on concentration, and lipid peroxidation has been postulated to be involved in both acute and chronic neurogenerative diseases. We find that ascorbic acid and Zn2+, at concentrations that are achieved in the brain after prolonged synaptic depolarization, coordinately promote lipid-peroxide formation and cause dysfunction of membrane-bound proteins. This effect is unique to Zn2+, and other divalent cations do not share a similar synergism with ascorbate. We propose that the Zn2+-ascorbate interaction may be an overlooked mechanism of lipid-peroxide formation in brain injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To update some of the clinical features of St Louis encephalitis (SLE), a common arboviral infection that occurs in epidemic patterns in the south-central and midwestern United States. METHODS Eleven patients with SLE from a 1995 epidemic in Dallas, Tex, were studied clinically, radiologically, neurophysiologically, and neuropathologically (in 1 case). RESULTS The electroencephalograms and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of our patients revealed features that have received little attention in previous studies. Of the 9 patients who were examined with electroencephalography, all 9 had seizures or other abnormalities, and 1 had nonconvulsive status epilepticus. Two of 6 patients who had MRIs showed substantia nigra edema. Finally, 2 (18%) of our patients had coinfection with the human immunodeficiency virus. CONCLUSIONS The MRI findings of substantia nigra edema in patients with SLE have not been previously reported. Nonconvulsive status epilepticus can occur in patients with SLE and should be considered in patients with prolonged encephalopathy. Finally, human immunodeficiency virus coinfection may be a risk factor for symptomatic SLE infection.

Abstract
By molecular cloning Kruger et al. (Kruger, K. E., Sossin, W. S., Sacktor, T. C., Bergold, P. J., Beushausen, S., and Schwartz, J. H. (1991) J. Neurosci. 11, 2303-2313) provided evidence for three isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC) in Aplysia, two of which, Apl I and Apl II, are expressed abundantly in the nervous system. We resolve two major kinase activities from nervous tissue by column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite (HAP), one Ca(2+)-activated and the other Ca(2+)-independent. We show that these two activities correspond to the previously cloned Apl I and II. These two isoforms appear to be the only major PKCs present in nervous tissue. The Apl I kinase is strongly activated by cis-fatty acids but only in the presence of Ca2+. Thus functionally, Apl I is more like the alpha and beta isoforms of vertebrate PKC, than to the vertebrate neural gamma isoform. The Apl II kinase is Ca(2+)-independent and resembles vertebrate PKC epsilon. The simplicity of the PKC isoform distribution in Aplysia makes this mollusc an attractive animal for understanding the differential regulation and physiological activities of Ca(2+)-activated and Ca(2+)-independent PKCs.

We describe a patient with sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy and cranial neuropathy due to autopsy-proven neurolymphomatosis defined by infiltration of peripheral nerves by tumor cells and review the findings in 39 previously reported patients. The cause of the neuropathy is not known. The association with immune-deficient states suggests virally mediated pathogenesis, possibly a retrovirus.

Abstract
The morphological effects of short-term (9 days) dietary administration (0.1% in a laboratory chow diet) of 5 alpha-cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol-15-one, a novel regulator of cholesterol metabolism with significant hypocholesterolemic activity, has been studied in young male rats. Control animals included rats fed the basal diet ad libitum and a series of rats pair-fed to the individual experimental animals. At the time of necropsy, the morphological changes in rats which have been observed in rats following treatment with other absorbable hypolipidemic agents (myeloid bodies with triparanol, increased peroxisomes with clofibrate, and proliferation of smooth endoplasmic reticulum with compactin and mevinolin) were not apparent on ultrastructural examination of livers of rats treated with the 15-ketosterol. Two changes were observed in the rats fed the 15-ketosterol: a decrease in adipose tissue and enlargement of the small intestine. Diminished fat was also noted in the pair-fed controls and was presumably due to decreased food consumption. The intestines of rats fed the 15-ketosterol were morphometrically most enlarged in the jejunal region. Morphologically, this increase was distinguished by increased depth of crypts of Lieberkuhn and pseudostratification of epithelium at the base of the villi. These changes were qualitatively and quantitatively similar to the adaptive changes reported in the rat after resection of small bowel or following intestinal bypass (segment of bowel remaining in continuity). The morphological changes induced in the rat by administration of the 15-ketosterol were not observed in 4 baboons which received the compound orally at doses of 50, 75, or 100 mg per kilogram of body weight for up to 3 months.

Abstract
An endogenous inhibitor of L-[3H]quinuclinidinyl benzilate binding to the brain muscarinic acetylcholine receptor was identified. [3H]Quinuclinidinyl benzilate binding to rat brain synaptosomes was measured using a filtration assay. The inhibitor was prepared from several calf tissues and was found in highest specific activity in thymus. The loss of binding activity was slow, requiring a 30-40 min preincubation of the synaptosomes with the inhibitor, and reversed by removing the inhibitor by washing the membranes. Scatchard analysis of the binding data showed that the inhibition was noncompetitive resulting from both a decrease in affinity and a decrease in the number of binding sites. Zn2+ was required in low concentrations for this effect. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor in synaptic membranes and in membranes free of most peripheral membrane proteins was still sensitive to inhibition. Preliminary characterization of the inhibitory molecule showed that it is of low molecular weight, moderately heat-stable, and acidic. The inhibitor was inactivated by reagents that are nonspecific for nucleophiles, but not by reagents specific for primary amine or thiol groups.
