- Vestibular and Saccadic Abnormalities in Gaucher's Disease.
- Chen L, Halmagyi GM, Todd MJ, Aw ST.Author information Institute of Clinical Neuroscience, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Camperdown, Sydney, NSW, 2050, Australia.AbstractGaucher's disease (GD) is a hereditary lysosomal storage disease characterized by abnormal deposition of glucocerebroside due to the enzyme glucocerebrosidase deficiency, resulting in multi-organ pathology. GD type III has a progressive neurological involvement. We studied the vestibular and saccadic abnormalities in GD type III to determine if these parameters may be useful for assessing neurological involvement. We evaluated the vestibular and saccadic responses of two siblings with genetically identified GD type III on enzyme replacement therapy. Vestibular functions were assessed with the head impulse test (HIT), vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs), and electrical vestibular stimulation (EVS). Saccadic functions were investigated with volitional horizontal and vertical saccades to ±20°. Three-dimensional head and eye movements were recorded with dual-search coils and VEMP with surface electrodes. HIT showed impaired individual semicircular canal function with halved angular vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gains and absent horizontal refixation saccade. Ocular and cervical VEMPs to air-conducted clicks were absent in the older sibling, and only cervical VEMP was present in the younger sibling indicating otolithic dysfunction. EVS showed prolonged onset latency and attenuated tonic and phasic responses suggesting impaired neural conduction and vestibular function. Horizontal saccadic velocity was miniscule (<30°/s) and multiple back-to-back saccades with saccade-vergence interaction were utilized to minimize eye position error in the older sibling. Vertical saccades were slightly abnormal, but vergence and smooth pursuit were normal in both siblings. Our findings suggest that GD affected the vestibular nuclei in addition to the paramedian pontine reticular formation. These vestibular and saccadic abnormalities may be useful biomarkers to monitor neurological deterioration.

- Patterns of saccular afferent innervation in sciaenids.
- Selckmann GM, Ramcharitar J.Author information St Mary's College of Maryland, Department of Biology, 18952 E. Fisher Road, St Mary's City, MD 20686, USA.AbstractIn this study, saccular afferent arborization patterns in Atlantic croaker Micropogonias undulatus, red drum Sciaenops ocellatus and spot Leiostomus xanthurus were characterized. Leiostomus xanthurus showed the simplest configuration while M. undulatus displayed the most complex. In addition, hair-cell densities at sites sampled along the rostro-caudal axis of the saccular epithelia correlated with the observed patterns of arborization.

- Topography of inferior olivary neurons that encode canal and otolith inputs.
- Ma CW, Lai CH, Chow BK, Shum DK, Chan YS.Author information Department of Physiology, LKS Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, People's Republic of China.AbstractVestibular information arising from rotational head movement and that from translational head movement are detected respectively by the semicircular canal and otolith organ in the inner ear. Spatiotemporal cues are in turn processed by the vestibulo-olivo-cerebellar pathway for sensorimotor coordination, but the role of the inferior olive (IO) in this pathway remains unclear. To address whether rotational and translational movements are differentially represented in the IO, we studied the distribution pattern of IO neurons recruited into the circuitry following selective activation of receptor hair cells of the horizontal semicircular canal or the utricle in adult rats. Neurons in the beta nucleus of IO (IOβ) and dorso-medial cell column of IO were responsive to horizontal translation, but not rotation. Notably, otolith-related neurons were observable largely in the rostral IOβ. In contrast, the subnucleus A of IO (IOA), subnucleus C of IO (IOC), and dorsal cap of Kooy (IOK) were responsive to horizontal rotation, but not translation. In the IOA, these canal-related neurons were clustered in the medial portion of the subnucleus. In the IOC, canal-related neurons were skewed towards the rostral half. In the IOK, canal-related neurons were found throughout the subnucleus. These indicate that the distributions of canal- and otolith-related neurons encoding horizontal motions are clearly segregated in the IO. These discrete IO subnuclei therefore provide a topographic map for temporal and adaptive operations of sensorimotor coordination and spatial reference.
