Skein-like inclusions in the anterior horn cells in motor neuron disease

Abstract

Skein-like inclusions (SLIs) in the anterior horn cells of patients with motor neuron diseases, including familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with posterior column degeneration, sporadic lower motor neuron disease and classical amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, were investigated morphologically with hematoxylin and eosin preparations, immunostaining for ubiquitin and immunoelectron microscopy. The SLIs were thready linear or tubular structures which immunostained with antiubiquitin antibodies. They were detected on hematoxylin and eosin preparations as eosinophilic thread-like structures often surrounded by pale areas. SLIs were occasionally present as networks of threads or tubules. Sometimes, they were aggregated and formed larger pale inclusions. Ultrastructurally, the SLIs were bundles of filaments which appeared thicker than neurofilaments. The SLIs tended to have central hollow spaces which were devoid of filaments. When the SLIs were clustered, fuzzy thick filaments were randomly and loosely arranged among the individual SLIs. The SLIs were histologically and ultrastructurally distinct from other inclusions such as Bunina bodies and hyaline inclusions. This unique morphology of SLIs may provide a novel perspective on the degenerative processes of the anterior horn cells in MND.

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.
