BACKGROUND: Stroke involving the cerebral white matter (WM) has increased in
prevalence, but most experimental studies have focused on ischemic injury of the
gray matter. This study was performed to investigate the WM in a unique rat model
of photothrombotic infarct targeting the posterior limb of internal capsule
(PLIC), focusing on the identification of the most vulnerable structure in WM by
ischemic injury, subsequent glial reaction to the injury, and the fundamental
histopathologic feature causing different neurologic outcomes. METHODS: Light
microscopy with immunohistochemical stains and electron microscopic examinations
of the lesion were performed between 3 hours and 21 days post-ischemic injury.
RESULTS: Initial pathological change develops in myelinated axon, concomitantly
with reactive change of astrocytes. The first pathology to present is nodular
loosening to separate the myelin sheath with axonal wrinkling. Subsequent
pathologies include rupture of the myelin sheath with extrusion of axonal
organelles, progressive necrosis, oligodendrocyte degeneration and death, and
reactive gliosis. Increase of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)
immunoreactivity is an early event in the ischemic lesion. WM pathologies result
in motor dysfunction. Motor function recovery after the infarct was correlated to
the extent of PLIC injury proper rather than the infarct volume. CONCLUSIONS:
Pathologic changes indicate that the cerebral WM, independent of cortical
neurons, is highly vulnerable to the effects of focal ischemia, among which
myelin sheath is first damaged. Early increase of GFAP immunoreactivity indicates
that astrocyte response initially begins with myelinated axonal injury, and
supports the biologic role related to WM injury or plasticity. The reaction of
astrocytes in the experimental model might be important for the study of
pathogenesis and treatment of the WM stroke.
