Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neopterin levels were measured in child patients with neurological diseases. CSF neopterin levels on admission were significantly higher in patients with bacterial meningitis than in those with aseptic meningitis or in those with non-pleocytotic CSF. CSF neopterin levels in patients with bacterial meningitis one day after admission were higher than those on admission and were markedly elevated with high levels of CSF IFN-γ and TNF-α. CSF neopterin levels in patients with bacterial meningitis one day after admission were related to the period of positive serum C-reactive protein. In patients with non-pleocytotic CSF, CSF neopterin and CSF IFN-y levels were higher in patients with febrile convulsion (FC) than in those with pyrexia only or convulsion (including epilepsy) only. These results suggest that elevation of CSF neopterin in bacterial meningitis results from monocytes/ macrophages costimulated with IFN-γ and TNF-α and that immunological activation in the central nervous system is one of the mechanisms of onset with FC.
