nucleus.

Vibrational stimulation of the tendon of the mm.gastrocnemius+soleus (100 sec–1) in rats anesthetized with chloral hydrate (400 mg/kg) resulted in the appearance of considerable Fos immunoreactivity in
the lumbar spinal cord (L1-L6), as compared with that in intact animals. Total densities of Fos-immunopositive (Fos-ip) neurons in each of the examined
segments were higher than 40 units per 40-μm-thick slice; the respective index reached the maximum at the L4 level (78.9 ± 2.3 cells). Most Fos-ip neurons were localized in laminae 4 to 7 of the gray matter, both ipsi- and contralaterally
with respect to the side of stimulation (28.5 ± 0.6 and 28.4 ± 0.6, respectively). Single Fos-ip motoneurons were found bilaterally
in the ventral horn motor nuclei. Thus, activation of muscle spindle receptors induced by vibrational stimulation applied
to the Achilles tendon induces noticeable bilateral c-fos expression in spinal neuronal networks related to transmission of proprioceptive muscle-born impulsation. 相似文献

Effects of long-term (9 days) experimental unilateral inflammation in the mm. gastrocnemius-soleus (GS), induced by injection of Freund’s complete adjuvant, namely modulation of posterior biceps-semitendinosus (PBSt) monosynaptic reflexes (MSRs), which was induced by chemical activation of high-threshold (groups III and I) muscle
afferents, and changes in c-fos expression and NADPH-diaphorase (d) reactivity in the lumbosacral spinal cord, were studied in anemically decapitated and
highly (at the C1) spinalized cats. The mean amplitude of the MSRs on the pretreated side did not differ significantly from that on the opposite
side. In adjuvant-injected cats, ipsilateral stimulation of nociceptive muscle afferents by KCl injection induced the bilateral
enhancement of flexor reflexes. Significant bilateral increases in the mean number of Fos-immunoreactive (Fos-IR) neurons
within the L6, L7, and S1 segments (157.5 ± 12.7, 201 ± 18.5, and 205 ± ± 18.6 per section; P < 0.05) were also found in adjuvant-injected cats. A lot of Fos-IR neurons was observed in the marginal zone (lamina I) and
the neck of the dorsal horn (laminae V and VI); the highest number of labelled cells was detected in lamina VII. In adjuvant-injected
cats, co-distribution of Fos-IR neurons and numerous Fos-IR glia-like cells in the dorsal and ventral horns was also found.
Significant increases in the mean number of NADPH-d-reactive cells in lamina VII bilaterally and also in lamina I and in an
area around the central canal (lamina X) contralaterally within the L6, L7, and S1 segments (P < 0.05) were also observed. In conclusion, activation of the nociceptive input during long-term inflammation of the GS muscles
is associated with differential patterns of c-fos expression and NADPH-d reactivity and also with central neuronal hyperexcitability that contributes to bilateral facilitation
of the PBSt MSRs.

Alterations in the expression of the neuropeptide, galanin, were examined in micturition reflex pathways of rat after cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis of variable duration: acute (4 h), intermediate (48 h), or chronic (10 days). In control animals, galanin expression was present in specific regions of the gray matter in the rostral lumbar and caudal lumbosacral spinal cord, including: (1) the dorsal commissure (DCM); (2) superficial dorsal horn; (3) the regions of the intermediolateral cell column (L1–L2) and the sacral parasympathetic nucleus (SPN, L6–S1); and (4) the lateral collateral pathway (LCP) in lumbosacral spinal segments. Densitometry analysis demonstrated significant decreases (P≤0.01) in galanin immunoreactivity (IR) in these regions of the L1–S1 spinal cord after acute or intermediate CYP-induced cystitis. In contrast, increases (P≤0.01) in galanin–IR were observed in the DCM, SPN, or LCP regions in the L6–S1 spinal segments in rats with chronic cystitis. No changes in the number of galanin–immunoreactive cells were observed in the L1–S1 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) after CYP-induced cystitis of any duration. A small percentage of bladder afferent cells (Fast-blue-labeled) in the DRG expressed galanin–IR in control rats; this was not altered with cystitis. Galanin–IR was observed encircling DRG cells after chronic cystitis. These changes may contribute to urinary bladder dysfunction, altered sensation, and referred somatic hyperalgesia after cystitis.This work was supported in part through NIH grants DK051369, DK060481, DK065989, and NS040796. 相似文献

We estimated expression of the c-fos gene (a marker of increase in neuronal activity) and manifestations of the histochemical reaction to NADPH-diaphorase (a
marker of NO-generating neurons) in the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) and forebrain limbic structures of rats in the norm, in the state of starvation, and during realization of long-lasting
(60 min) periodic (several times per minute) food-procuring movements of the forelimb. The starvation state or realization
of motivated stereotyped forelimb movements were related to significant bilateral increases (P < 0.05) in the levels of c-fos expression in the anterior olfactory (AOP) and cortical (ACo) nuclei and the central (Ce) and basolateral (BLA) nuclei of the amygdala, and also in the pyriform (Pyr), prelimbic (PrL), and inferior limbic (IL) cortices. The described findings demonstrate that the high Fos immunoreactivity in the MPFC and amygdalar structures is related to the motivation state in animals and reflects the active involvement of limbic cerebral
structures in the formation of motor programs and also in the stabilization and realization of operant reflexes.

The influence of modifications of normal photoperiodicity on the state of c-fos (gene of immediate functional response) in neurons of the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SChNs) of the rat hypothalamus was examined;
samples were taken during the subjective day and night. In animals kept under normal conditions of alternation of light and
darkness, expression of the product of this gene and marker of its activation (c-Fos protein) demonstrated a rather clear
circadian pattern, with a greater level of the immunoreactivity of this protein at the day period. Constant illumination for
7 days disturbed the rhythm of the c-fos activity and smoothed circadian variations of the level of immunoreactivity of c-Fos. Under conditions of light deprivation
of a similar duration, we observed a significant (more than twofold) increase in the indices of concentration of c-Fos and
its content in the nuclei of SChN neurons, as well of the total content of this protein in SChN slices, at the day phase.
Possible mechanisms of the influence of modifications of the photoperiod on the state of the c-fos gene in SChN cells, in particular the relation of the respective changes to variations of the level of melatonin, are discussed.
It is emphasized that natural photoperiodicity and its experimental modifications result in noticeable shifts of the geometrical
dimensions of the nuclei of SChN neurons.

We estimated in rats the expression of early gene c-fos (marker of neuronal activation) and NADPH-diaphorase activity (NO-synthase marker) in the limbic structures of the basal
forebrain and in the hypothalamus. Estimations were performed in the norm, in the state of starvation, and after realization
of long-lasting (repeated 4 to 12 times per minute for 30 min) motivated stereotyped food-procuring forelimb movements. In
food-deprived animals, a significantly greater (Р < 0.05), as compared with the control, number of Fos-immunoreactive (Fos-ir) and NADPH-diaphorase-reactive (NADPH-dr) neurons
was observed in limbic structures, namely in the medial septum (MS), nuclei of the vertical and horizontal branches of the diagonal fascia (VDB and НDB), magnocellular preoptic nucleus (MCPO), complex of the substantia innominata−basal nucleus of Meynert of the pallidum, SI-GP(B), as well as in the laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (LDTg), medial part of the pallidum (MGP), paraventricular and lateral nuclei of the hypothalamus (Pa and LH), and islands of Calleja (ICj and ICjM). In the limbic structures and pontine nuclei of rats of the experimental group (that performed operant movements), greater
mean densities of labeled neurons were found in the succession LDTg < SI < MCPO < GP(B) < MS < VDB < HDB. The maximum mean density of Fos-ir neurons (13.8 ± 0.9 labeled nuclei within 200 × 200 μm2 area) was found in the HDB. In the hypothalamic nuclei of starving rats, c-fos expression was two times higher than that in the control. After realization of operant movements, the intensity of expression
in the LH was somewhat smaller, while in the Ра it was higher. The maximum density of NADPH-dr neurons was observed in the Pa (303.4 ± 18.7 cells), in the ICj and ICjM (287 ± 11.6 and 260 ± 8.7 neurons, respectively), and in the MGP (93 ± 6.7 labeled cells). When analyzing the distribution of labeled neurons in experimental rats, we found high densities
of double-labeled cells (Fos + NADPH-d positivity) in the Pa, MGP, ICj, and ICjM. Such specificity of changes in the c-fos expression and NADPH-d reactivity in the hypothalamus correlates, perhaps, with the formation of motivation signals related
to a delay in food accessibility and supply of food. Modifications of neuronal activity in limbic structures reflect involvement
of the latter in the formation of motor programs for food-procuring movements and their realization.

The expression of glutathione S-transferase pi (GST pi), an enzyme responsible for inactivation of a large variety of toxic compounds was studied in spinal
cord, motor and sensory brain cortex obtained from patients who died in the course of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
The studies were performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and freshly frozen tissues. The method of RNA isolation
from FFPE was modified. A significant decrease of GST pi-mRNA expression was found in cervical spinal cord and motor brain
cortex of ALS subjects comparing to analogue control tissues (P < 0.01), as well as in motor cortex of ALS subjects comparing to their sensory cortex (P < 0.05). In spinal cords the decrease in GST pi-mRNA expression was accompanied by a decrease of GST pi protein level. Results
indicated lowered GST pi expression on both mRNA and protein levels in the regions of nervous system affected by ALS. The
non-properly inactivated by GST toxic electrophiles and organic peroxides may thus contribute to motor neurons damage. 相似文献

The activation of caspase-3 is considered to be a reliable marker for apoptotic cell death, and a 120-kDa fragment of αII-spectrin
is generated by caspase-3 mediated cleavage of this structural protein. In the present study, we compared cleaved αII-spectrin
(120-kDa) and cleaved caspase-3-immunoreactive cells and their protein levels in the cervical (C5–C6) and lumbar (L3–L4) levels of the spinal cord in adult (1–2 year-old) and aged (10–12 year-old) dogs (German shepherds). Weak cleaved αII-spectrin
and cleaved caspase-3 immunoreactivity was found in neurons of the adult group; however, their immunoreactivity was distinctively
increased in the neuronal cytoplasm in the aged group compared to those in the adult group, although the distribution pattern
of their neurons was similar between the adult and age group. In addition, cleaved αII-spectrin and cleaved caspase-3 levels
in the aged spinal cord were markedly increased compared to those in the adult group. These findings suggest that the increases
of cleaved αII-spectrin and cleaved caspase-3 immunoreactivity may be related to aging of the spinal cord in dogs. 相似文献

Summary. The neuroprotective efficacy of growth hormone on a focal spinal cord trauma induced alteration in the blood-spinal cord
barrier (BSCB) and edema formation was examined in a rat model. Under Equithesin anaesthesia, one segment laminectomy was
done over the T10–11 segments. Spinal cord injury was produced by making an incision into the right dorsal horn of the T10–11
segments (2 mm deep and 4 mm long). The animals were allowed to survive 5 h after injury. Highly purified rat growth hormone
[rGH, 25 μl of a 1 μg/ml solution) was applied over 10 sec topically on the exposed surface of the spinal cord 30 min before injury. The identical
doses of the rGH were repeated 0 min, 30 min, 60 min, 120 min, 180 min and 240 min following injury. Saline (0.9% NaCl) treated
traumatised rats at identical intervals served as controls. Traumatised rats treated with saline exhibited marked edema formation
and extravasation of Evans blue and [125]Iodine tracers in the spinal cord. At the ultrastructural level, perivascular edema and exudation of lanthanum across the
endothelial cells was quite frequent in the spinal cord. Pretreatment with rGH significantly attenuated the edema formation
and the extravasation of tracers in the spinal cord. In these rats, perivascular edema and infiltration of lanthanum across
the endothelial cells was not much evident. These observations show that the rGH has the capacity to reduce the early manifestations
of microvascular permeability disturbances and edema formation following trauma and further suggest a possible therapeutic
potential of the hormone for the treatment of spinal cord injuries.

The developmental expression of the protooncogenes, c-fos and c-myc, in muscle and liver of 14-and 19-day embryos and 1-, 6-, 8-and 28-day-old chicks of Athens Canadian Random Bred (ACRB) Single Comb White Leghorn (SCWL) and Peterson X Arbor Acres commercial broiler (PXAA) was determined. For the three stocks of chicken, significant differences were found in c-fos and c-myc expression. For both muscle and liver, averaged across ages, abundance of c-fos RNA was highest in PXAA and lowest in ACRB with differences significant at the P<0.01 level. c-myc RNA levels were significantly higher (P<0.01) in PXAA than in ACRB or SCWL liver. Taken over the developmental period, expression of c-fos RNA in muscle increased at different rates between breeds from 14-day embryo levels to peak levels in 6- to 8-day-old chicks and declined in 28-day-old chicks. Levels of c-fos were much lower in liver and showed no consistent differences related to developmental stage. A steady decline in c-myc from 14-day embryo levels to 28-day-old chicks was found in both muscle and liver. This decline in c-myc levels generally parallels the decline in relative growth rates which occurs in all breeds over the developmental period. In liver, the fast growing PXAA had the highest levels of c-myc. c-fos, on the other hand, showed elevated levels in PXAA for both muscle and liver and distinctly different patterns between these two tissues over the developmental period, suggesting tissue-specific involvement in growth. 相似文献

The present study investigated the expression patterns of glial cells and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the rat spinal cord after a surgical incision, which is closely related with clinical postoperative pain. Microglia and astrocytes became activated in the spinal cord following incision. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemisty showed that IL-1β mRNA and protein level in the spinal cord was transiently upregulated after surgical incision. The increased IL-1β-immunoreactivity (IR) was mainly localized in neurons but not the activated microglia or astrocytes. Although obvious increase in IL-1β-IR could be observed in the lumbar segments of the spinal cord ipsilateral to a hind paw incision, significant upregulation of IL-1β was not detected in the lumbar segments following thoracic incision. The present study indicated that surgical incision could induce glial activation and segmental upregulation of IL-1β in the spinal cord. The activated glial cells and upregulated IL-1β, in turn, may be involved in the incision-induced pain hypersensitivity. 相似文献

The neural control of micturition undergoes marked changes during the early postnatal development. During the first few postnatal
weeks, the spinal micturition reflex is gradually replaced by a spinobulbospinal reflex pathway that is responsible for micturition
in adult animals. Upregulation of brainstem regulation of spinal micturition pathways may contribute to development of mature
voiding patterns. We examined the expression of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), present in descending projections from
Barrington's nucleus to the sacral parasympathetic nucleus (SPN), in postnatal (P0–P36) and adult Wistar rats (P60–90). CRF-immunoreactivity
(IR) was present predominantly in the SPN region, although some staining was also observed in the dorsal horn and dorsal commissure
in L5–S1 spinal segments. CRF-IR in spinal cord regions was age dependent (R
2=0.87–0.98). The majority of the CRF-IR in the lumbosacral spinal cord was eliminated by complete spinalization (2–3 weeks).
Double-label immunohistochemistry was combined with quantitative confocal laser scanning microscopy to quantify the number
and percentage of colocalization between CRF-immunoreactive varicosities and preganglionic somas or proximal neurites in the
SPN in postnatal and adult rats. Results demonstrate an age-dependent upregulation of CRF-IR in the SPN region and specifically
in association with preganglionic parasympathetic neurons identified with neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)-IR. CRF-immunoreactive
varicosities on or within a 1 μm perimeter of nNOS-immunoreactive somas or proximal neurites also increased with postnatal
age. The upregulation of CRF-IR in bulbospinal projections to the SPN may contribute to mature voiding reflexes.

The effects of electro-acupuncture (EA) on insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) expression in the spared dorsal root ganglia
(DRG) and associated spinal dorsal horns were explored in cats subjected to unilateral removal of L1–L5 and L7–S2 DRG, sparing the L6 DRG. Immunohistochemistry revealed the presence of IGF-I immunoreactive products in the L6 DRG neurons and some neurons and glial cells in the spinal cord. Western blot demonstrated that the level of IGF-I was significantly
up-regulated both in the spared DRG and the dorsal horns of L3 and L6 cord segments at both 7 and 14 days post operation following EA. The present findings demonstrated the association between
neuroplasticity and IGF-I expression, suggesting the possible role of IGF-I in EA promoted spinal cord plasticity. 相似文献

c-Fos expression was studied in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord regions involved in processing afferent input from the lower
urinary tract and a comparison was made between spinal cord-injured (SCI) animals and control animals with intact neuraxes.
Afferent pathways from the lower urinary tract were activated either by insertion of a catheter through the urethra into the
urinary bladder or by catheterisation plus induction of reflex micturition contractions by intravesical saline infusion. Placement
of a catheter alone elicited Fos expression in a similar number of neurones in SCI and control rats mainly in the medial dorsal
horn (MDH) and dorsal commissure (DCM) in the segments L1–2 and L5–S1 with a maximum in L5. Additional saline infusion induced
low-frequency, high-amplitude, rhythmic bladder contractions of long duration in the rats with intact spinal cords, whereas
in SCI rats, bladder distension elicited reflex contractions at a higher frequency, smaller amplitude and shorter duration.
However, the basal and mean bladder pressure, as well as the total contraction time relative to the whole recording time,
was not significantly different. Distension-induced bladder contractions markedly increased Fos expression primarily in the
spinal segments L5–S1 in the control rats, where the majority of bladder and urethral afferent fibres terminates. Fos-positive
cells were located in the MDH, lateral dorsal horn (LDH), DCM and the lateral aspect of laminae V–VII. Compared to controls,
Fos expression after spinal cord injury (SCI) occurred in a significantly greater number of neurones throughout the segments
L3–S1 following induction of bladder reflexes. The greatest proportional increase in the number of Fos-positive cells occurred
in L3–5 which normally receive only little afferent input from the urinary bladder. Cell numbers predominantly increased in
the LDH and lateral lamina V–VII. The data are consistent with the concept of a neuroplastic reorganisation of spinal pathways
after SCI. Unmasking of silent synapses or formation of new connections by afferent axonal sprouting caudal to the lesion,
as evident from the increased numbers of cells expressing Fos after bladder distension, could be factors underlying the emergence
of reflexogenic micturition in chronic SCI rats.

Labelled steroid hormones,3H-hydrocortisone and14C-testosterone, being injected in the gray matter of theL
5−L
6 spinal cord segments were shown to be transported via ventral and dorsal root fibers (antero- and retrograde directions,
respectively) of old (25 to 28 months) rats with a lower velocity than in adult young (6 to 11 months) animals. The averaged
maximum velocities of axon transport (AT) through the ventral and dorsal roots were: for3H-hydrocortisone, 756±63 and 738±46 mm per day, and for14H-testosterone, 624±54 and 608±80 mm per day, respectively. Therefore, in old rats the AT velocities for3H-hydrocortisone and14C-testosterone were about four and seven-eight times lower than those in adult rats. In the course of anterograde, AT through
the ventral roots in old rats the inclusion of3H-hydrocortisone is sharply suppressed (by more than an order of magnitude), as compared with than in adult animals. The doses
of non-labelled steroid hormones within a 10−7 – 10−6 range, injected into the lumbar spinal segments, resulted in hyperpolarization of muscle fibers of themm. gastrocnemius anddeltoideus, but this phenomenon developed in old rats much later than in adult rats. It is obvious that AT of steroid hormones can be
considered one of the mechanisms of their effects on the tissue of an organism, and this mechanism undergoes extremely intensive
modifications with aging. 相似文献

1. The noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists produce behavioral responses that closely resemble both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. These drugs also induce excitatory and neurotoxic effects in limbic cortical areas.2. We have here mapped the brain areas which show increased activity in response to noncompetitive NMDA-receptor antagonist administration concentrating especially to those brain areas that have been suggested to be relevant in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.3. Rats were treated intraperitoneally with a NMDA-receptor antagonist MK801 and activation of brain areas was detected by monitoring the expression of c-fos mRNA by using in situ hybridization.4. MK801 induced c-fos mRNA expression of in the retrosplenial, entorhinal, and prefrontal cortices. Lower c-fos expression was observed in the layer IV of the parietal and frontal cortex. In the thalamus, c-fos mRNA expression was detected in the midline nuclei and in the reticular nucleus but not in the dorsomedial nucleus. In addition, c-fos mRNA was expressed in the anterior olfactory nucleus, the ventral tegmental area, and in cerebellar granule neurons.5. NMDA-receptor antagonist ketamine increased dopamine release in the parietal cortex, in the region where NMDA-receptor antagonist increased c-fos mRNA expression.6. Thus, the psychotropic NMDA-receptor antagonist induced c-fos mRNA expression in most, but not all, brain areas implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The high spatial resolution of in situ hybridization may help to define regions of interest for human imaging studies. 相似文献

Coordinates,DNA content and heterogeneity of cell nuclei and segments of the <Emphasis Type="Italic">Caenorhabditis elegans</Emphasis> intestine 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
A specific protocol allowed to selectively stain and image the cell nuclei of the intestine of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Digital processing of these images yielded quantitative information on the coordinates and the relative DNA content of these
cell nuclei. With this technique, the exact locations (in relation to the length of worm or intestine) of the 20 intestinal
cell nuclei of larval stage L1 and of the 34 intestinal cell nuclei of larval stages L2–4 and adults were determined. Tracking
the DNA content of an individual intestinal cell nuclei allowed to study nuclear DNA endoreduplications during larval growth.
The evaluation of the DNA content of all intestinal cell nuclei revealed a strong heterogeneity between the cell nuclei and
intestinal segments with a maximum in segments int4–int5 in the L1 stage and int5–int6 in the L2–L4 stages. Minimum values
were detected in the segments int2 and int8–int9 of all larval stages. Heterogeneity between the intestinal segments of C. elegans does not only concern the DNA content of cell nuclei, but also other cellular features like the quantity of intracellular
vesicles or the absorption of particles out of the intestinal lumen. 相似文献

Relative nuclear DNA contents in cortex parenchyma cells in root segments of 3- and 7-d-old soybean seedlings grown at 25
°C and in plants grown for 3 d at 25 °C, and then for 4 d at 10 °C, were determined with cytophotometry. Measurements revealed
that in each variant the cortex cell nuclei with DNA content between 2C and 8C were in all the examined segments and nuclei
with 8C – 16C DNA appeared in higher parts of roots. However, in chilled plant cells the number of 8C – 16C DNA nuclei was
very low. Therefore, chilling inhibited endoreplication in comparison with plants grown at 25 °C for 7 d, and even reduced
endopolyploidy level as compared to the initial seedlings, i.e. 3-d-old plants. DNA contents in root hairs grown at 25 °C (control) and in root hairs emerged at 10 °C were also determined.
In controls 4C – 8C DNA nuclei predominated while in chilled plants an additional population of 2C – 4C DNA appeared. Thus
a reduction of DNA synthesis was brought about by low temperature. The occurrence of an intermediate DNA contents besides
those with full endoreplication cycles suggests the possibility of differential DNA replication. This suggestion seems to
be supported by the lack of 3H-thymidine incorporation into root hair nuclei at the examined developmental stage both in control and chilled root hairs.
The same number, but larger, chromocentric lumps in polyploid cortex cell nuclei of higher root zones, in comparison to meristematic
nuclei, suggests that endoreduplication process occurred.
