Abstract

Cerebral disease manifestation occurs in about two thirds of males with X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (CALD) and is fatally progressive if left untreated. Early histopathologic studies categorized CALD as an inflammatory demyelinating disease, which led to repeated comparisons to multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to revisit the relationship between axonal damage and myelin loss in CALD. We applied novel immunohistochemical tools to investigate axonal damage, myelin loss and myelin repair in autopsy brain tissue of eight CALD and 25 MS patients. We found extensive and severe acute axonal damage in CALD already in prelesional areas defined by microglia loss and relative myelin preservation. In contrast to MS, we did not observe selective phagocytosis of myelin, but a concomitant decay of the entire axon‐myelin unit in all CALD lesion stages. Using a novel marker protein for actively remyelinating oligodendrocytes, breast carcinoma‐amplified sequence (BCAS) 1, we show that repair pathways are activated in oligodendrocytes in CALD. Regenerating cells, however, were affected by the ongoing disease process. We provide evidence that—in contrast to MS—selective myelin phagocytosis is not characteristic of CALD. On the contrary, our data indicate that acute axonal injury and permanent axonal loss are thus far underestimated features of the disease that must come into focus in our search for biomarkers and novel therapeutic approaches.

  • BCAS1+ oligodendrocytes in the cortex appear in two main phenotypes: resting cells with few or no immunopositive processes, prevailing in the healthy adult brain, and activated cells with pre-myelinating/myelinating morphology characterized by internode formation.

    “BCAS1+ oligodendrocytes in the cortex appear in two main phenotypes: cells with few or no immunopositive processes, prevailing in the healthy adult brain (‘resting’ BCAS1+ oligodendrocytes; arrows in Fig. 1A) and cells with a pre-myelinating morphology with multiple branches and myelinating morphology, characterized by internode formation (‘activated’ BCAS1+ oligodendrocytes; arrowheads in Fig. 1A”

  • In many neurodegenerative diseases, including AMN, axonal pathology precedes cell body loss in the form of dying back axonopathy.

    “In many neurodegenerative diseases, including AMN [49,89,181,187,288,294,295,296,297], axonal pathology precedes cell body loss in the form of “dying back axonopathy”, in which axons gradually degenerate toward the cell body [298,299].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
