Summary The significance of the classical subdivision of the retinal primitive neuroepithelium into an outer and an inner neuroblastic layer by the transient fibre layer of Chievitz (LOC) is little understood. We examine here the formation of neuroblastic layers by regenerating fully laminated retinospheroids from dissociated cells of the embryonic chick eye margin in rotary culture. By tracing cellular processes with the fibre-specific F11-antibody in retinospheroids, we occasionally find, in addition to an outer and an inner plexiform layer, a cell-free F11-positive LOC homologue, subdividing the inner nuclear layer. Moreover, we demonstrate that the LOC precisely separates postmitotic AChE-positive cells of the inner retina from an AChE-negative outer part holding all BrdU-labelled mitotic cells. These in vitro data suggest that the inner neuroblastic layer is exclusively composed of AChE-positive cells, thus representing a primary differentiation zone of the retina. 相似文献

The activity and distribution of nicotinamide dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-d), an enzyme that is widely distributed in the central nervous system and involved in the production of the free radical nitric oxide, were investigated histochemically in the normal developing and intracranially transplanted retinas. In the normal rat retina, NADPH-d activity was first detected in cells in the ganglion cells layer (GCL) and blood vessels on the first postnatal day (P0). A small but distinct population of NADPH-d positive cells were observed along the inner border of the inner nuclear layer at P7. NADPH-d positive sublaminae began to appear in the inner plexiform layer during the second postnatal week, and several strongly reactive sublaminae resembling those observed in the adult were observed by the fourth postnatal week. The overall spatio- temporal sequence of development of NADPH-d positive cells in the transplanted retina was similar to that of the normal retina, except a lack of reactive in the inner plexiform layer in more mature transplants as compared with normal retinas of corresponding ages. These results indicate that the time course of development and distribution of NADPH-d cells in early postnatal retina requires signals mainly of intraretinal origin and is independent of influence from the surroundings. While this finding is supportive to the notion that neurons that are rich in NADPH-d are resistant to injury or perturbation, the observation of a lack of well organized NADPH-d reactive sublaminae in the inner plexiform layer in older transplants suggests a possible alteration in the synaptic circuitry in the inner retina with increasing postgrafting survival time. 相似文献

Summary The retina of Aotes monkeys, Cebus monkeys, squirrel monkeys, and marmosets were investigated. Adrenergic perikarya were found in the innermost cell rows of the inner nuclear layer of all the investigated species. In addition, the Cebus monkey was found to have a special type of adrenergic neurons in the inner nuclear layer. This cell type was called the adrenergic pleomorph cell. Its processes ramify in the inner nuclear and inner plexiform layers. Adrenergic terminals occur in three more or less well developed sublayers of the inner plexiform layer, the layers being best developed in the Cebus monkey. Adrenergic terminals were also found around the cells of the inner nuclear layer and at the horizontal cells, where a scant sublayer is formed. More than one adrenergic sublayer of the inner plexiform layer has not been observed in primates previously, nor have the adrenergic terminals in the inner nuclear layer been observed previously in any species. The adrenergic pleomorph cells of the Cebus monkey also seem to be unique. The marked differences even between animals as closely related as some platyrhine monkeys call for caution when comparing the detailed function of the retina in different animals.This study was supported by grants from the Swedish Medical Research Council (B69-14X-2321-02) and the Faculty of Medicine, University of Lund, and was carried out within a research group sponsored by the Swedish Medical Research Council (projects No. B69-14X-56-05C and B69-14X-712-04C). 相似文献

We used a policlonal antiserum against GABA and demonstated GABA-immunoreactivity (GABA-IR) in several populations of amacrine cells in the inner nuclear layer (INL), and other cells in the inner plexiform layer (IPL) of the central and peripheral retina of the chameleon. Horizontal cells do not contain GABA-IR and the chameleon retina is therefore an exception among non-mammals. GABA-IR was not seen in cell bodies in the position of photoreceptor, bipolar and interplexiform cells suggesting that GABA is not involved in synaptic transmission in the outer plexiform layer of chameleon retina. 相似文献

In this study, we aimed to investigate the distribution pattern of ubiquitin and p97/VCP in the rat retina during postnatal
development. Eyeballs from 1-, 4-, 10-, 36- and 72-week-old rats were examined by immunohistochemistry, and protein colocalization
was determined by immunofluorescence microscopy. In the 1-week-old rat retina, p97/VCP was strongly expressed in the neuroblast
layer, however no ubiquitin immunoreactivity was observed. p97/VCP immunoreactivity was present in the ganglion cell layer
(GCL), inner nuclear layer (INL), outer nuclear layer (ONL), inner segment (IS) of the photoreceptor layer, and retinal pigment
epithelium in the 4- and 10-week-old rat retinas. p97/VCP immunoreactivity increased significantly in the 10-week-old rat
retinas. Ubiquitin was barely seen in the 4-week-old rat retinas, and ubiquitin expression was weak in the GCL and the IPL
of the 10-week-old rat retinas. In the 36- and 72-week-old rats, the presence of ubiquitin was remarkable in the IS, INL,
IPL and GCL, however, p97/VCP immunoreactivity was significantly decreased. Colocalization of ubiquitin and p97/VCP was also
observed in the INL, IS, GCL and ONL of 36- and 72-week-old rat retinas. Our results indicate that p97/VCP immunoreactivity
in the retina significantly decreases after rats reach 10 weeks of age, whereas ubiquitin immunoreactivity increases with
aging. These results suggest that an altered expression pattern of p97/VCP and ubiquitin in the developing rat retina may
associate with age-related retinal degeneration. 相似文献

A considerable amount of clinical and experimental evidence exists suggesting the involvement of reactive oxygen substances (ROS) in the aetiology of uveitis. The activated phagocytic system of polymorphonuclear leucocytes in uveitis is involved in the generation of ROS. In addition to their direct free radical scavenging action, aprotinin, melatonin and vitamin C are known to protect against oedema formation and can preserve plasma membrane fluidity and free radical production. Histological changes in the retina that occur during uveitis are not well explained. The purpose of this study was to determine whether vitamin C, aprotinin and melatonin can protect the retina from damage accompanying experimental uveitis (EU). Thirty adult male guinea pigs were divided into five groups of six animals each. The first group was used as control. The right eyes of groups 2, 3, 4 and 5 received an intravitreal injection of bovine serum albumin for induction of experimental uveitis. At the same time and also on the consecutive third day, groups 3, 4 and 5 received intraperitoneal injections of vitamin C (ascorbic acid, 100 mg kg(-1) body wt), aprotinin (20,000 kIU kg(-1) body wt) and melatonin (10 mg kg(-1) body wt), respectively. The animals were killed on the sixth day. The average thickness of the retina and inner plexiform layer for each eye was measured in sagittal section near the optic nerve and expressed in microns. The thickness of the retina and inner plexiform layer in the control group was significantly (p < 0.01) lower than in the group EU as compared with the group EU plus vitamin C, group EU plus aprotinin, group EU plus melatonin (p < 0.05). The thicknesses of the retina and inner plexiform layer in group EU plus vitamin C, group EU plus aprotinin and group EU plus melatonin were significantly (p < 0.01) lower than that in the group EU. The difference in thickness of the retina and inner plexiform layer among the groups 3, 4 and 5 was not significant (p > 0.05). In conclusion, this study demonstrated that oedematous effects of EU on the retina were reduced by the administration of intraperitoneal vitamin C, aprotinin and melatonin, i.e. these antioxidants had significant protective effects on the retina of guinea pigs against oedematous damage in EU. However, the reductive effect of vitamin C on EU was greater than that of aprotinin and melatonin. The intraperitoneal vitamin C, aprotinin and melatonin supplementations may strengthen the antioxidant defence system because of decreased ROS, and these agents may play a role in treating uveitis. 相似文献

Summary The cellular distribution of parvalbumin-like immunoreactivity (PA-LI) in normal retina of rat, monkey, and human was investigated by immunohistochemical peroxidase antiperoxidase methods, and the levels of PA-LI in normal rat retina and brain were measured by radioimmunoassay. The antibody, raised in rabbits using rat skeletal muscle parvalbumin, did not cross-react with other Ca2+-binding proteins such as calmodulin or S-100 proteins. In rat retina, PA-LI-containing cells are located in the proximal inner nuclear layer and send processes to the external half of the internal plexiform layer, suggesting that they are amacrine cells. In monkey and human retina, PA-LI positive cells exist in the outermost sublayer of inner nuclear layer, and PA-LI-containing fibers that extend horizontally are found in the internal zone of outer plexiform layer. The radioimmunoassay revealed that the rat retina contained 1710±91 ng PA-LI/mg protein, the levels of which were higher than that of brain (881±165 ng PA-LI/mg protein). These results show an additional location for PA-LI outside skeletal muscle and brain, and also provide information on the function of interneurons of retina, which are still poorly understood. 相似文献

Carbon monoxide (CO), an activator of soluble guanylate cyclase (SGC) and generated enzymatically by heme oxygenases (HO), is considered to function as an intra- and intercellular neuromodulator or neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems. HO-2 is the constitutive isoform of HO and is more prevalent in nervous tissues than in the other peripheral tissues. Because previous studies have demonstrated different distributions of HO-2 in the retina depending on the species of animals, the aim of this study was to identify which cell types of the monkey retina express HO-2. The expression of HO-2 protein was examined in monkey retina by Western blot analysis. Immunoblottings from monkey homogenates revealed a single clear protein band with a molecular mass of 36 kDa that is corresponding to rat HO-2. Immunoreactivity of HO-2 was found in the perikarya of ganglion cells. Density of immunoreactive ganglion cells was higher in the central area of retina than in the peripheral retina, and somata of larger ganglion cells were stained more densely than smaller ones. In electron microscopy, immunoreactivity of HO-2 was localized on the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear outer membrane of the ganglion cells. By contrast, inner plexiform layer, inner nuclear layer and outer nuclear layer were devoid of HO-2 immunoreactivity. cGMP were strongly localized in all of ganglion cells. Some cells contributed to the relatively faint cGMP staining were seen in the inner nuclear layer. In combination of HO-2 and cGMP immunocytochemistry, the overlap of co-localization of HO-2 and cGMP would suggest that HO-2 in the ganglion cells would serve as a source for CO generation and CO could serve as a gaseous signaling molecule modulator of neural activity in the retina of monkey. 相似文献

Alterations in cyclic AMP metabolism associated with photoreceptor cell degeneration in the C3H mouse 总被引:8,自引:7,他引:1
Previous studies have shown an abnormality in cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity in the retina of mice (C3H/HeJ) with an inherited degeneration of the photoreceptor layer. Adenyl cyclase activity and cyclic AMP content have been measured in C3H retina and compared with that in normal retina (DBA/1J) during postnatal maturation, to assess the influence of the mutation upon cyclic AMP metabolism. Adenyl cyclase activity increases normally for the first 7 days of age; thereafter, it becomes greater than normal. Cyclic AMP becomes obviously abnormal after 10 days of age. The elevated levels of cyclic AMP persist in the surviving cells of the inner layers of the adult C3H retina. Adenyl cyclase activity and cyclic AMP content are concentrated in the inner layers of the normal retina, while the photoreceptor layer has only a very low level of enzyme activity and cyclic AMP. The data suggest that the synthesis of cyclic AMP in the inner layers of C3H retina is significantly enhanced, during the period of postnatal development in which the photoreceptor cells have begun to degenerate. 相似文献

Freeze-dried sections (14 microns thick) of retinal layers were prepared from mice with retinal degeneration (C3H strain) and control mice (C57BL strain). The weighed sections (2-30 ng dry weight) were analyzed using our microassay methods. In the control retina, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentration and glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) activity, on a dry weight basis, increased from birth to 9 weeks of age and decreased slightly at 20 weeks. In the degenerated retina, the levels of GABA and GAD activity were higher at birth than in the control retina, and continued to increase until 20 weeks of age, at which time the GAD activity reached a markedly high level. This increase was found when the total GABA and GAD levels per retina were determined. In the normal retinal layers, GABA and GAD were confined primarily to the inner plexiform layer. In the degenerated retina, GAD activity gradually increased in the inner layers during postnatal development, but by 20 weeks the increase was most prominent in the inner part of inner nuclear layer and in the outer part of inner plexiform layer. GABA transaminase activity and its distribution were not much different in both normal and degenerated retinas during development. 相似文献

We examined dopaminergic neurons in the guinea pig retina; antisera against tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH), phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT) and an antiserum against gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were used. In the present study, two types of amacrine cells were labeled with an anti-TH antiserum. However, no DBH and PNMT immunoreactivities were seen. The type 1 cell had a larger-sized soma located in the inner nuclear layer with processes ramifying mainly in stratum 1 of the inner plexiform layer (IPL). The type 2 cell had a smaller-sized soma and processes branching in stratum 3 of the IPL. The mean densities were 56.4 +/- 11.5/mm2 for the type 1 cell and 166.6 +/- 30.3/mm2 for the type 2 cell. Double immunocytochemistry using an antiserum against GABA revealed that while none of the type 1 cells showed GABA immunoreactivity, all of the type 2 cells displayed GABA immunoreactivity. Our results suggest that, in the guinea pig retina, the type 1 amacrine cells are pure dopaminergic and the type 2 cells are dopaminergic elements that use GABA as their second transmitter. 相似文献

In the developing mouse retina degenerating neurons can be observed initially in the ganglion cell layer followed by a phase of cell death in the inner nuclear layer. Using an immunohistochemical method to localize the mouse macrophage specific antigen F4/80, we show that macrophages migrate from the vascular supply overlying the developing retina and phagocytose the degenerating neurons. The macrophages subsequently differentiate to become the microglia of the retina and form a regularly spaced distribution across the retina in the inner and outer plexiform layers. These experiments provide strong evidence for the mesodermal origin of central nervous system microglia. 相似文献

Summary Following prolonged topical application of (3H)D-aspartate in vivo, selective labeling of three distinct cell classes was observed in light-microscopic radioautographs from squirrel monkey retina. Müller (glial) cell bodies and their processes were intensely and consistently labeled in all preparations. Moderately labeled perikarya were occasionally detected in the area of bipolar cells, within the inner nuclear layer. These were particularly numerous in sections from the central retina where an intense diffuse labeling of the inner plexiform layer was also prominent. Finally, moderate to dense accumulations of label were observed over the cell bodies, internal segments and fiber processes of cone photoreceptors. These results strongly suggest that cones, as well as a sub-population of bipolar cells, use glutamate and/or aspartate as neurotransmitter(s) in monkey retina. 相似文献

Changes in the distribution of 1P1-antigen in the developing chick retina have been examined by indirect immunofiuorescence staining technique using the novel monoclonal antibody (MAb) 1P1. Expression of the 1P1 antigen was found to be regulated in radial as well as in tangential dimension of the retina, being preferentially or exclusively located in the inner and outer plexiform layers of the neural retina depending on the stages of development. With the onset of the formation of the inner plexiform layer 1P1 antigen becomes expressed in the retina. With progressing differentiation of the inner plexiform layer 1P1 immunofiuorescence revealed 2 subbands at E9 and 6 subbands at E18. At postnatal stages (after P3) immunoreactivity was reduced in an inside-outside sequence leading to the complete absence of the 1P1 antigen in adulthood. 1P1 antigen expression in the outer plexiform layer was also subject to developmental regulation. The spatio-temporal pattern of 1P1 antigen expression was correlated with the time course of histological differentiation of chick retina, namely the synapse rich plexiform layers. Whether the 1P1 antigen was functionally involved in dendrite extension and synapse formation was discussed. 相似文献

GDNF family receptor alpha (GFRalpha) receptors are involved in the regulation of different aspects of embryonic development such as proliferation, migration, differentiation and survival. To determine the possible role of GFRalpha4 in retinal development, we analysed its expression in the developing chicken retina. We found that GFRalpha4 is temporally co-expressed with c-ret. Both, the temporal and spatial expression of GFRalpha4 is developmentally regulated during retinogenesis and is first detected in cells of the ganglion cell layer at E6. As development of the retina proceeds, the expression of GFRalpha4 extends to cells of the inner half of the inner nuclear layer and to cells of the outermost cell row of the inner nuclear layer. Later on, GFRalpha4 expression is also found in additional cells of the outer half of the inner nuclear layer and in a subpopulation of photoreceptors. A central-to-peripheral gradient of retinal differentiation is evident, as the onset of GFRalpha4 expression is first detectable in the central retina, while it is delayed by two days in its periphery. 相似文献

Morphogenesis of the eye was studied in a new strain of micro-phthalmic rat. Abnormalities were noted immediately after the formation of the optic cup. The inner layer in the central part of the optic cup was relatively thick and contained many mitotic figures, whereas that of the marginal part was thin and contained only a few. The transitional point in the inner layer between the central and the marginal parts was well marked. This is evidently due to the extreme growth inhibition of the inner layer at the marginal part. At the early developmental stage, an area of the inner layer corresponding to the transitional point protruded toward the lens because the central part of the inner layer continued to differentiate. The differentiation and the protrusion of the inner layer proceeded variably at the later stages depending on the degree of the growth inhibition. The eyes were classified into three groups: Group A–the retina was recognized as a cyst consisting of the pigment layer and the pigment-layerlike structure which originated from the inner layer; group B-the neural retina and its layered structure were inverted; group C-abnormalities, such as the destruction of the lens, were observed. Although previous authors who studied eye mutants suggested the vascular abnormality as the primary cause of the production of abnormal eyes, we feel that this is not the case in our animals. 相似文献
