Popis: | The topography and cellular events in the experimental lesions caused by chlorosugars, 6-aminonicotinamide, dinitrobenzene and tribromoimidazole in animals are considered in relation to those features in human acute thiamine deficiency (Wernicke's) encephalopathy and for comparison in Leigh's disease. The topography and cellular changes when closely examined are different and particular to each condition, although there is a basic cellular process common to all. The pathogenesis of each condition must be considered as multifactorial and a search for the factors responsible for the neuronal and cellular selective vulnerability of different regions of the neuraxis will lead us to understanding the pathogenesis of the disease process in each instance. The experimental models offer much for the understanding of the human conditions, particularly in the search for satisfactory therapeutic strategies. |
