lysozyme/癲癇性発作

A cerebrospinal fluid sample collected from the cerebellomedullary cistern of a 10-year-old Shetland Sheepdog with a recent history of seizures was submitted for fluid analysis and cytologic examination. Key findings included a total nucleated cell count of 520/microL (reference interval 0-5

Lysozyme is absent from normal cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F.) and in C.S.F. from children with viral meningitis. Appreciable amounts of lysozyme were noted in C.S.F. from children with bacterial meningitis (0.23 +/- 0.14 mg/100 ml) and cerebral convulsions (0-0.82 mg/100 ml). The C.S.F.-lysozyme

Granular cell astrocytoma (GCA) is an aggressive variant of astrocytoma characterised by predominantly round-to-polygonal cells with abundant eosinophilic granular cytoplasm. This tumor usually lack the morphological signatures of conventional astrocytoma and are devoid of typical features which

An 8-year-old male Tibetan Terrier showed prolonged astasia, complete paralysis, ticlike signs, and seizure and died 2 months after the onset of symptoms. Histopathologically, there was moderate to severe infiltration of pleomorphic histiocytic mononuclear cells bilaterally in the basiarachnoidal

Progressive mucinous histiocytosis is a rare, benign, non-Langerhans' cell histiocytosis limited to the skin. Ten cases--all women--in four families and one sporadic case have been described in the literature. The disorder usually begins in childhood and progresses slowly. We report two sporadic

It has been shown that ticks possess cellular factors of organism protection which fulfil functions of seizure and digestion of different microorganisms in a way similar to phagocytosis. In response to the introduction of bacteria lysozyme quantity increases in tick's haemolymph that exerts a

Juvenile xanthogranuloma is usually a self-limiting disease of the skin. Intracranial manifestations are extremely rare. We report the clinico-pathological features of an 8-month-old boy suffering from a gradually enlarging nodule of the chest wall and subsequent epileptic seizures. The subcutaneous

Three dogs (two Rottweilers and a Flat-coated retriever) showed various neurological signs, including apathy, depression, circling, a partial decrease in functions associated with cranial nerves, seizures, hyperaesthesia, proprioceptive deficits, and increased spinal reflexes. In all three cases,

Unstimulated and stimulated whole and unstimulated and stimulated parotid saliva were collected from subjected in three groups: I, control; II, seizure subjects ingesting phenytoin and without gingival overgrowth; III, seizure subjects receiving phenytoin and with grades 1 and 2 gingival overgrowth.

Histiocytic sarcoma is a progressive and fatal malignant neoplasm that mainly occurs in middle- to old-aged dogs. This study describes clinicopathological, histological and immunohistochemical characteristics of intracranial histiocytic sarcomas in 23 dogs. Magnetic resonance imaging and/or computed
