Electron Microscopy Study of Nerve Cell Death Types in Some Central Nervous System Diseases. A Review
Abstract
In the present review we describe the nerve cell death types
in some nervous central diseases. Cortical biopsies of patients with
congenital
hydrocephalus, brain trauma, vascular anomalies and brain tumors are
examined by means of transmission electron microscopy to study distinct
and combined forms of nerve cell death. Most non-pyramidal nerve cells,
astrocyte and oligodendrocytes undergo a hybrid oncotic-apoptotic and
necrotic continuum process. In a lesser proportion another non-pyramidal
nerve cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes show apoptosis or oncosis
only. Autophagic cell death was rarely seen in non-pyramidal nerve cells
in traumatic brain edema. The nerve cell death is discussed in relation
with
the severity of brain edema, anoxic-ischemic conditions of the tissue,
calcium depolarization and Ca ++ influx, resulting in excitotoxic cell
death,
glutamate excitotoxicity, caspase dependent and independent mechanisms,
oxidative stress, and calcium overload.
Introduction
Häcker and Vaux [1] have published an interesting review on a chronology of cell death, listing papers between 1842 and 1995, that illustrates how physiological death has been exhaustively studied. In the last decade, diversity mechanisms of cellular and molecular events have been elucidated in relation with nerve cell death [1], which can be now correlated with nuclear structural alterations in brain edema and associated anoxic-ischemic conditions [3]. studied the ultrastructure of excitotoxic (glutamate) neuronal death in murine cortical culture to explore to which extend these in vitro paradigms resemble in vivo ischemic injury, and described rapid swelling of mitochondria, vacuolation of endoplasmic reticulum and random condensation of chromatin. Two pathways of premortal events of cell death: oncosis and apoptosis, and necrosis, conceptualized as a postmortal stage, have been described [4-7].For more than 80 years apoptosis and necrosis have been known to be distinct forms of cell death. Apoptosis considered as a normal physiological process during development has been suggested to be involved in the abnormal neuronal death following axonal injury or in neurodegeneration [8-10]. Described delayed, selective neuronal death following cortical injury in rats, and its possible role in memory deficits [11]. reported nerve cell death in rat hydrocephalus [12], found two different morphological types of apoptosis following focal ischemia in the striatal penumbra. [12], described the ultrastructural morphology of neuronal death following reversible focal ischemia in the rat.
Saikumar [13], examined the diversity of death paradigms in hypoxia/reoxigenation injury related with caspase independent as well as caspase dependent processes, and the involvement of several mitochondrial factors [14], described the apoptotic response to trauma of nerve cells using TUNEL histochemistry and agarosa gel electrophoresis and reported acute and delayed patterns of cell death. [15], by means of similar techniques, reported the features of apoptosis in a neonatal rat model of cerebral hypoxia-ischemia, and described DNA fragmentation, chromatin condensation and apoptotic bodies.
Calcium-dependent mechanisms related to excess activation of calcium-dependent enzymes (Calmortin hypothesis) can cause neuronal cell death [16]. Mitochondrial calcium overload is considered a critical event in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death [17,18]. Caspase activation has been postulated to occur in cells undergoing apoptosis [17,19] studied the role of glutamate receptors and voltage-dependent calcium channels in glutamate toxicity in energy-compromised cortical neurons [20], found that autophagy may mediate caspase-independent neuronal death. [21], described programmed cell death as a mechanism of neuronal death in prion diseases.
Walton [22], reviewed the neuronal death and survival in two models of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage. [23], described death of oligodendrocytes and microglial pahgocytosis of myelin preceding immigration of Schwann cells into the spinal cord. [24], suggested that caspase, bcl-2, DAP families and substrates, such as PARP contribute to the mechanism of cell death in ischemic brain injury. [25], described caspase-independent programmed cell death with necrotic morphology. Apoptosis and necrosis after ischemia are associated with differential alterations in metabotropic glutamate receptor signalling pathways [26].
Budd [27] reported mitochondrial and extramitochondrial signaling pathways in NMDA receptor-mediated apoptosis of cerebrocortical cultured neurons. [28], demonstrated the contributing role of glycogen synthase kinase in neuronal apoptosis induced by trophic withdrawal. [29], studied the astroglial trophic support and neuronal cell death. [30], described apoptosis and necrosis after cerebral contusions in humans. [31], showed the involvement of caspase 3 in apoptotic death of cortical neurons evoked by DNA damage. [32], suggested a contributory role of caspase 3 in neuronal and glial cell apoptotic degeneration after traumatic brain injury. [33], found that traumatic brain injury induces temporal and selective alteration of gene expression profiles of TUNNEL-positive neurons. [34], demonstrated that mild cerebral ischemia induces loss of ciclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, and activation of neuron cycle machinery before delayed neuronal cell death. [35], reported that astrocytes contribute to neuronal impairment in beta A toxicity increasing apoptosis in rat hyppocampal neurons. [36], postulated that degeneration and death of neurons is the fundamental process responsible for the clinical manifestations of many neurological disorders of aging, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and stroke. [37], reported apoptotic neurodegeneration following trauma in developing rat brain, and suggested the involvement of intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. [38], reported apoptotic cell death in congenitally XTX hydrocephalic rats due to retrograde degeneration from extensive axonal damage. [39], also described thalamic neuronal apoptosis after cortical damage in immature mice. Boldirev et al. (2002) demonstrated oxygen deprivation-induced cell death.
Wang [40] studying hemoglobin-induced cytotoxicity in rat cerebral cortical neurons, suggested that in addition to activation of caspase cascades, parallel pathways of oxidative stress predominate in this model of hemoglobin neurotoxicity. Caspase-dependent and caspase-independent pathways have been implicated mediating neuronal cell death [25, 41-46].
Posttraumatic nerve cell death has been also studied. Apoptosis of neurons and glial cells have been reported after traumatic brain injuries in both humans and animals [47-50] .
Bezvenyuk [51] demonstrated that chromatin condensation preceded nuclear DNA fragmentation, as uncoupled event during neuronal cell death. [52], found nucleolar disintegration after rat perinatal asphyxia. [53], demonstrated that sustained calpain activation induced disruption of lysosome membrane after ischemia and executes necrosis of CA1 neurons in primates. [54], found that steroid-triggered programmed cell death of motoneuron is autophagic and involves structural changes in mitochondria. [55], described apoptosis induced by oxidative stress and the role played by caspases and intracellular calcium ions. [56], demonstrated that a concurrent increase in caspase-3 and cathepsin-B suggest that necrotic and apoptotic cell death are concomitantly activated in ischemic neurons. [57], reported type I TUNEL positive cells in the ischemic cortex leading to necrotic changes, and type II TUNEL positive cells showing hybrid forms of cell death, featured by concurrent apoptotic and necrotic alterations. [58], demonstrated that ischemia leads to apoptosis and necrosis-like neuron death in the ischemic rat hippocampus.
According to Rhagupathi [59], apoptotic and necrotic neurons have been identified after traumatic brain injuries. [60], correlated regional cerebral blood flow and the presence of apoptotic cells, 3 hours after hypoxic-ischemic injury in preterm lambs. [61], related brain edema and elevated intracranial pressure in animal models of traumatic brain injuries and found that apoptotic cell count has a positive correlation with cerebral water content, and elevated intracranial pressure. [62], postulated that cerebral ischemia triggers a complex cascade of cellular events, such as calcium depolarization and Ca ++ influx, resulting in excitotoxic cell death. Haku [63], found persistent neuronal death in immature rats after hypoxia and ischemia. [64], proposed that calpain-induced calcineurin activation in part mediates delayed neuronal death in brain ischemia. [65], demonstrated in vitro activation of caspase 8 pathways and induction of cell death in cultured hippocampal neurons. [66], reported that nerve cell death in vascular demencia occurs as a consequence of ischemic insults such as hemorrhage and hipoperfusion that trigger neurodegeneration. [67], summarize the arguments that implicate calpain in neuronal apoptosis and neurodegenerative diseases. [68], described ultrastructural changes of apoptosis and secondary cell death after compression in cortical neurons. [50], postulated a continuum processes of oncosis, apoptosis, necrosis, or oncosis or apoptosis only, and autophagic cell death in the human edematous cerebral cortex associated to congenital hydrocephalus, brain trauma, vascular anomaly, and brain tumors. According to aging is neuroprotective during global ischemia, but leads to increased caspase-3 apoptotic activity in hippocampal neurons.
Brief cerebral ischemia leads to selective neuronal necrosis (SNN), which is characterized by neuronal death with sparing of glial and vascular elements of the central nervous system [69]. N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs), which are critical for excitotoxicity in neurons, triggers microglia activation in vitro and secretion of factors that induce cell death of cortical neurons [70,71], described neuronal cell death and degeneration through increased nitroxidative stress and tau phosphorylation in HIV-1 transgenic rats.
Li [72], recently described the ultrastructural characteristics of neuronal death and white matter injury in mouse brain tissues after intracerebral hemorrhage, and the coexistence of ferroptosis, autophagy, and necrosis.
According to Formella [73], KillerRed-activated neurons in the spinal cord undergo stress and cell death after induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). [74], reported recent studies suggesting a toxic role for non-phosphorylated and non-aggregated tau when it is located in the brain extracellular space, and that phosphorylated and/or aggregated intracellular tau protein was causative of neuronal death.
In the present review we analyze by means of conventional transmission electron microscopy, and using strict morphological criteria, the distinct and combined pathways of neuronal and glial cell death in the human edematous cerebral cortex associated to four different pathological entities: congenital hydrocephalus, brain trauma, vascular anomaly and brain tumors. Oncosis and apoptosis, as separate nerve cell death pathways, and a continuum oncosisapoptosis leading to necrosis are described.
The main goal of this review is to describe how different insults to nerve cells induce diversity mechanisms of nerve cell death. To examine how brain edema and their associated anoxic-ischemic conditions interact to cause a characteristic nerve cell death type (oncosis or apoptosis) or hybrids forms of nerve cell death leading to necrosis.
Nerve cell death in congenital hydrocephalus
In congenital hydrocephalus and associated lumbar meningomielocele, nonpyramidal neurons undergo coexisting oncotic and apoptotic processes characterized by remarkably swollen mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum canaliculi and cisterns, and dense nucleoplasm with a condensed chromatin (Figure 1).

oncotic

chromatin condensation (CC) and swollen electron lucent cytoplasm. Note
the notably swollen mitochondria (M). X 60.000.
In Arnold-Chiari malformation and hypertensive communicant
hydrocephalus, the non- pyramidal nerve cells and oligodendrocytes
exhibit oncotic cell death featured by a decondensed nuclear
chromatin, enlarged and disrupted perinuclear cistern widely
communicated with the endoplasmic reticulum and the dilated
extracellular space (Figure 2), suggesting that the oncotic cell death
is due to the high pressure exerted by the interstitial hydrocephalic
edema [75].

Oligodendroglial cell death have been described in Arnold Chiari
malformation and related with axonal demyelination process [76],
The astrocytes mostly show a combined oncotic and apoptotic cell
death characterized by strong chromatin condensation, disrupted
swollen cytoplasm and fragmented limiting plasma membranes
(Figure 3).

In congenital hydrocephalus nerve cells suffering an evident
apoptotic process are observed, the formation of typical apoptotic
bodies (Figure 4).In congenital hydrocephalus and Arnold-Chiari malformations we are dealing with immature brain, where oncosis, apoptosis and necrosis also occurred as a continuum [50,75]. In these cases, the nerve cell populations exhibit high vulnerability, and support the hypothesis that excitotoxic neuronal death in the immature brain is not a uniform event [77], but rather overlapped morphological processes with a distinct phenotype of neurodegeneration.
Del Biggio and Zhan [11] reported nerve cell death in immature rat brain following the induction of hydrocephalus. [15], reported the features of apoptosis in a neonatal rat model of cerebral hypoxia-ischemia and described DNA fragmentation, chromatin condensation and apoptotic bodies. [38], reported apoptotic cell death in congenitally XTX hydrocephalic rats due to retrograde degeneration from extensive axonal damage. [39], also described thalamic neuronal apoptosis after cortical damage in immature mice. [37], reported apoptotic neurodegeneration following trauma in developing rat brain and suggested the involvement of intrinsic and extrinsic pathways. [63], found persistent neuronal death in immature rats after hypoxia and ischemia. [26,[77-79]], postulated a continuum of apoptotic, necrotic, and overlapping morphologies in excitotoxic neuronal death in newborn rat brains. According to [80], hypoxic-ischemic neuronal degeneration in the developing CNS triggers two separates waves of neurodegeneration, the first being excitotoxic and the second being apoptotic.
Nerve cell death in complicated human traumatic brain injuries
In severe brain trauma complicated with subdural or epidural hematoma, some non-pyramidal nerve cells exhibit oncotic cell death type featured by electron lucent cytoplasm and nucleoplasm, lobulated nucleus, presence of intranuclear inclusions, intact and disrupted nuclear pore complexes, enlarged perinuclear cistern, rough endoplasmic reticulum canaliculi and cisterns and swollen clear an dense. Degenerated mitochondria were considered as marker of lethal injury [81], (Figure 5).

fibrillar organization. X 60.000.
Another non-pyramidal nerve cells exhibit a combined
pathway of apoptotic and autophagic cell death leading to necrosis,
characterized by chromatin condensation, clear nucleoplasm,
dark and isolated profiles of endoplasmic reticulum, degenerated
mitochondria, disrupted multivesicular bodies, numerous clear
vacuoles, apparently of lysosomal origin, and numerous small
dense like-lysosomal bodies [50], (Figure 6).

Xue [20], found that autophagy may mediate caspaseindependent
neuronal death. Autophagic cell death may be mediated
by lysosomal cysteine proteases (cathepsyns) to caspase [82-84].
Autophagic cell death also is seen in neurodegenerative diseases
[85]. Some non-pyramidal neurons and astrocytes show typical
apoptotic cell death characterized by chromatin condensation of
nuclear chromatin, disrupted perinuclear cistern, and presence of
apoptotic bodies in the nucleus and cytoplasm (Figure 7).

hematoma. Right temporal cortex. Astrocyte cell (A) showing oncotic cell

cytomembranes and most cell organelles. A degenerated mitochondrion
(M) with a granular matrix and few compacted cristae is seen. The
neighbouring collapsed neuropile exhibits a degenerated synaptic ending

Apoptosis after traumatic brain injuries has been widely
reported [30-33,47-49,61,86-89]. Apoptosis has been also found in
axonal injury and neurodegenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic
lateral sclerosis and Alzheimer’s [8,90], consider that in complete
absence of oxygen, cells undergo cell death through apoptosis.
Oxidative stress exerts a pivotal role in the generation of apoptosis
[91,92]. In addition, [86], demonstrated apoptosis after cortical
impact, and expression of proteins associated with DNA damage
and cyclin D1. [15], found apoptosis in nerve and glial cells in areas
with milder forms of ischemic damage. Some astrocytes displayed
a coexisting oncotic cell death and necrosis showing chromatin
condensation, empty, electron lucent and disrupted cytoplasm, and
swollen degenerated mitochondria [50] (Figure 8).

Some non-pyramidal neurons suffer only oncotic cell death
exhibiting a prominent nucleolus, numerous perichromatinic
granules embedded in a dense euchromatin (Figure 9).Apoptotic and oncotic cell death as separate entities are observed in a lesser proportion in non-pyramidal nerve cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes [50].
Nerve cell death types in brain tumors
In some brain tumors, oncotic or ischemic cell death of nonpyramidal neurons is observed characterized by an electron dense nucleoplasm, presence of perichromatinic granules, absence of chromatin condensation, and notably swollen mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum cisterns and vacuoles (Figure 1).

Macrophages are able to induce apoptosis in a number of
tumor cells, including glioma. It is known that apoptosis of cells
is executed on either a death receptor-dependent or independent
pathway [39].According to Mora [93], appropriately activated microglial cells induce secreted proteic factors that decreased proliferation and migration of glioma cells and efficiently killed them by a process of autophagy-dependent death. Cell death was characterized by the early accumulation of acidic vesicles, phosphatidylserine exposure, appearance of double-membrane cytoplasmic vesicles, extensive zeiosis and a very late loss of DNA in cells that had lost membrane integrity.
Inhibition of paraquat-induced autophagy accelerates the apoptotic cell death in neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. The cells succumbed to cell death with hallmarks of apoptosis such as phosphatidylserine exposure, caspase activation, and chromatin condensation [94]. These Authors related a relationship between autophagy and apoptotic cell death in human neuroblastoma cells treated with paraquat.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is known to regulate both cancer cell survival and death signaling, depending on the cellular circumstances, in various cell types. NGF strongly upregulated the protein level of tropomyosin-related kinase A (TrkA) in TrkAinducible SK-N-MC cancer cells [95].
Nerve cell death in vascular anomaly
In vascular anomalies a combined apoptotic and oncotic cell death is observed in neurons and oligodendrocyte cells featured by chromatin condensation, severely swollen perinuclear cistern and necrotic endoplasmic reticulum (Figure 11).

In the periphery surrounding the ischemic core (the so-called
penumbra) neurons, astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes,
pericytes, and endothelial cells react to detrimental factors such as
excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and inflammation in different ways
[96].Brain ischemia may lead to stroke and is characterized by key molecular events that initiate apoptosis in many cells, such as overproduction of free radicals, Ca2+ overload and excitotoxicity. These changes may trigger either apoptosis or necrosis. Apoptosis results in DNA fragmentation, degradation of cytoskeletal and nuclear proteins, cross-linking of proteins, formation of apoptotic bodies, expression of ligands for phagocytic cell receptors and finally uptake by phagocytic cells [97,98].
Overlapped cell death types
The different overlapped cell death types observed in the human edematous cerebral cortex are considered leading to necrosis conceptualized as the changes that occur after nerve cell death [5, 6,99]. In most nerve cells an oncotic-apoptotic cell death continuum is observed where distinctions between this cell death types are becoming blurred. A continuum apoptosis-necrosis was earlier reported by [77-79]. Although apoptosis and necrosis are mediated through distinct pathways, different pathological conditions lead to the continuum oncosis, apoptosis and necrosis, depending of the severity of brain parenchymatous edema, the age of the patients, and the moderate or severe anoxic-ischemic conditions involved.The continuum oncosis-apoptosis-necrosis observed in severe traumatic head injuries complicated with hematomas or hygroma, is mainly related with the degree of existing vasogenic and cytotoxic brain edema, mainly mitochondrial edema.
Molecular mechanisms underlying nerve cell death
Diverse molecular mechanisms have been proposed to explain nerve cell death, such as caspase independent as well as caspase dependent processes Tanabe et al., 1999; [7,15,17,25,31,41- 46,64,65,67,100,101]. which are proposed to trigger the activation of calpains, the cytosolic Ca2+ activated cysteine proteases, which may in turn degrade cytoplasmic proteins. Activated calpain may in turn activate lysosomal cathepsyn and induce necrosis. Calciumdependent mechanisms related to excess activation of calciumdependent enzymes (Calmortin hypothesis) can cause neuronal cell death [16]. Mitochondrial calcium overload is considered a critical event in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death [18,102]. The ability of high levels of Ca 2+ to induce swelling and disruption of mitochondria [102] cause opening of permeability transition pore and loss of energy metabolism, a key event leading to necrosis [45]. The pivotal role of mitochondrial calcium uptake in neuronal cell apoptosis and necrosis has been emphasized by [17]. The damage of the blood brain barrier and the perivascular hemorhages in human traumatic brain injuries [103] could induce hemoglobin citotoxicity, caspase activation and parallel pathways of oxidative stress [40].Concluding Remarks
In the present review we describe the nerve cell death types
in some nervous central diseases. Cortical biopsies from patients
with clinical diagnosis of congenital hydrocephalus, brain trauma,
vascular anomalies and brain tumors were examined by means
of transmission electron microscopy to study the distinct and
combined forms of nerve cell death [104-127]. Most non-pyramidal
nerve cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes undergo an oncoticapoptotic-
necrotic continuum. In a lesser proportion another
non-pyramidal nerve cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes show apoptosis or oncosis only. Autophagic cell death was rarely seen
in non-pyramidal nerve cells in traumatic brain edema. The nerve
cell death is discussed in relation with the severity of brain edema,
anoxic-ischemic conditions of the tissue, caspase dependent and
independent mechanisms, oxidative stress, and calcium overload.
