Abstract

We analyzed the content of GABA and DA in subarachnoid liquor of patients with spastic hypercynesis form of JCP and patients with spastic tetraparesis to localise the damaded integration level in the brain functional structures. The results allowed us to devide the patients with spastic tetraparesis into three groups: —A with the high level of GABA and DA (suggested levels of damage are putamen and globus pallidus); B — with the high level of GABA and the normal level of DA (suggested level of damage is globus pallidus); C — with the normal content of GABA and DA (other levels of integration).

The patients with spastic hypercinesis form of JCP were devidet into two groups: A — with the high level of DA and the normal level of GABA (suggested damage of DA — ergic connections of substantia nigra with the putamen ); B — with the normal content of GABA and DA (other levels of integration).

The transplantation of embryonic neuron tissue in the most cases decreased the level of neurotransmiters in subarachnoid liquor, that indicate its influence on the processes of regeneration of damaged integrative connections in the cortex-, striatum-, globus pallidus- thalamocortical loop.
