Cellular correlates of longitudinal diffusion tensor imaging of axonal degeneration following hypoxic–ischemic cerebral infarction in neonatal rats

Abstract: Ischemically damaged brain can be accompanied by secondary degeneration of associated axonal connections e.g. Wallerian degeneration. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is widely used to investigate axonal injury but the cellular correlates of many of the degenerative changes remain speculative. We investigated the relationship of DTI of directly damaged cerebral cortex and secondary axonal degeneration in the cerebral peduncle with cellular alterations in pan-axonal neurofilament staining, myelination, reactive a… Show more

“…In densely packed white matter bundles, axonal membranes and myelination both contribute to FA, with the former arguably producing a greater contribution [49]. Focal ischemia models have correlated FA reductions with both axonal loss and demyelination [50, 51]. More generally following tissue damage, and particularly in gray matter, several studies have cautioned against interpreting FA as a simple combination of axonal density and white matter myelination.…”

“…In both stroke models, histologic axonal damage correlated with decreased FA and increased RD. 40,41 DTI indices of white matter injury, including decreased FA and increased RD, correlated with poor neurologic outcome in adult humans after TBI and in neonates after hypoxic ischemic injury. 82,83 Interestingly, increased RD and decreased FA also correlated with poor neurologic outcomes in children after TBI.…”

“…When applied to living immature P3 rats subjected to H‐I, DTI at 24 and 72 hr shows changes in radial organization, disappearance of radial organization within the deep layers maturing earlier than the external layers, and associated changes in cortical architecture by histology (Sizonenko et al, ). DTI applied at 24 hr (Lodygensky et al, ) or from 3 hr to 4 weeks (Tuor et al, ) after H‐I in P7 rats shows region‐dependent and time‐dependent abnormalities. Changes are more subtle early and more extensive at 2 to 4 weeks after H‐I and are observed in a directly damaged region, the cerebral cortex, and in a region with secondary axonal degeneration, the cerebral peduncle.…”
