Special Composition

The choroid plexus epithelium constitutes a blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier, and is involved in regulation of the special composition of the CSF. The epithelium is provided with an ouabain-sensitive Na/K-pump located at the apical surface, actively pumping ions into the CSF. The choroid plexus epithelium has been described as “leaky” with a low transepithelial resistance, and a passive transepithelial flux following a paracellular route (intercellular spaces and cell junctions) also takes place. The present report describes the structural basis for these “barrier” properties of the choroid plexus epithelium as revealed by freeze fracture.Choroid plexus from the lateral, third and fourth ventricles of rats were used. The tissue was fixed in glutaraldehyde and stored in 30% glycerol. Freezing was performed either in liquid nitrogen-cooled Freon 22, or directly in a mixture of liquid and solid nitrogen prepared in a special vacuum chamber. The latter method was always used, and considered necessary, when preparations of complementary (double) replicas were made.

Tg737 orpk mice have defects in cilia assembly and develop hydrocephalus in the perinatal period of life. Hydrocephalus is progressive and is thought to be initiated by abnormal ion and water transport across the choroid plexus epithelium. The pathology is further aggravated by the slow and disorganized beating of motile cilia on ependymal cells that contribute to decreased cerebrospinal fluid movement through the ventricles. Previously, we demonstrated that the hydrocephalus phenotype is associated with a marked increase in intracellular cAMP levels in choroid plexus epithelium, which is known to have regulatory effects on ion and fluid movement in many secretory epithelia. To evaluate whether the hydrocephalus in Tg737 orpk mutants is associated with defects in ion transport, we compared the steady-state pHi and Na+-dependent transport activities of isolated choroid plexus epithelium tissue from Tg737 orpk mutant and wild-type mice. The data indicate that Tg737 orpk mutant choroid plexus epithelium have lower pHi and higher Na+-dependent HCO3− transport activity compared with wild-type choroid plexus epithelium. In addition, wild-type choroid plexus epithelium could be converted to a mutant phenotype with regard to the activity of Na+-dependent HCO3− transport by addition of dibutyryl-cAMP and mutant choroid plexus epithelium toward the wild-type phenotype by inhibiting PKA activity with H-89. Together, these data suggest that cilia have an important role in regulating normal physiology of choroid plexus epithelium and that ciliary dysfunction in Tg737 orpk mutants disrupts a signaling pathway leading to elevated intracellular cAMP levels and aberrant regulation of pHi and ion transport activity.

Abstract Two siblings in a family without a history of phacomatosis or cerebral tumors developed malignant tumors in the posterior fossa at age 28 months and in the left cerebral hemisphere at age 15 months, respectively. Dual ependymal and choroid plexus epithelium differentiation was established by histological, ultrastructural, and immunocytochemical studies. The development of this rare tumor in siblings suggests an inherited predisposition, a common environmental insult, or both.
