Neuronal degeneration followed by glial activation (microglia and astrocytes) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression in the hippocampus was investigated at 3 months after domoic acid (DA) administration and compared with DA treated rats at 5 days time interval which was reported earlier. Massive degeneration with complete absence of neurons in the hippocampal CA1 and CA3 regions and hypertrophied microglial cells showing intense immunoreaction with the antibody OX-42 was observed at 3 months after DA administration. Sparsely distributed OX-42 positive microglial cells were observed in the hippocampus of control rats at 3 months after saline treatment No apparent changes could be observed in the immunoreactivity of GFAP at 3 months after saline and DA administration. Neuronal nitric oxide synthase immunoreactive neurons were completely absent in the hippocampus at 3 months after DA administration. In contrast, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemical analysis revealed absence of NADPH-d reactivity in the neurons, but positive reactivity in the microglial cells of CA1-CA3 regions in the hippocampus after DA treatment. Double immunofluorescense revealed co-expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase with immunoreactive OX-42 positive microglial cells in the hippocampal subfields at 3 months after DA administration. The microglia-produced NO appears to be a secondary phenomenon in the prolonged inflammatory process following DA-induced neuronal degeneration. 相似文献

The effect of repeated immobilization stress (RIS) on the expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and types of cells that express IL-1β in hippocampal CA1 region, striatum and paraventricular nucleus (PVN) were investigated in ICR mice. The RIS was induced daily for 2 h for 4 consecutive days. In the immunohistochemical study, RIS increased IL-1β immunoreactivities (IR) in the hippocampal CA1 region and striatum and PVN. The RIS also increased glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) IR and complement receptor type 3 (OX-42) IR in the hippocampal CA1 regions and striatum but not PVN. In confocal immunofluorescence study, the IL-1β IR increased by RIS were colocalized with only NeuN, but not GFAP or OX-42 in the hippocampal CA1 region, striatum and PVN. Our results indicate that RIS increases IL-1β IR on neuron, but not astrocyte or microglia in the hippocampal CA1 region, striatum and PVN, suggesting that the IL-1β IR on neuron may play an important role during RIS. In addition, GFAP and OX-42 increased by RIS may be involved indirectly in playing another role in the hippocampal CA1 region and striatum during RIS. 相似文献

Localization and characterization of nitric oxide synthase at the frog neuromuscular junction 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary. The frog neuromuscular junction is sensitive to nitric oxide (NO), since exogenously applied NO reduces the release of transmitter by presynaptic terminals and the size of ATP-induced Ca2+ responses in perisynaptic Schwann cells. This study aimed at determining whether an NO synthase (NOS) is present at the neuromuscular junction, notably in perisynaptic Schwann cells, the glial cells at this synapse. The NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemical technique revealed the presence of NOS in cell bodies and presumed processes of perisynaptic Schwann cells. Incubation with NOS inhibitors, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester or NG-monomethyl-L-arginine-acetate, abolished the NADPH-d staining. Moreover, L-arginine, the precursor of NO, impeded the blockade by NOS inhibitors, establishing the NOS specificity of NADPH-d staining in frog tissue. The pattern of labelling with a polyclonal antibody against the neuronal form of NOS was similar to the NADPH-d staining, also suggesting the presence of a neuronal NOS in perisynaptic Schwann cells. Using electron microscopy, the NOS immunostaining was found at the membrane and occasionally in the cytoplasm of perisynaptic Schwann cells and was not detected in the nerve terminal or muscle. There was no enzymatic or immunocytochemical labelling of NOS 6 days after denervation. It is concluded that NOS is present in frog perisynaptic Schwann cells. The presence of this endogenous NOS suggests that NO may act as a diffusible glial messenger to modulate synaptic activity and synapse formation at the neuromuscular junction. 相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the role of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II) and which types of neuronal cells contain CaMK II and phosphorylated CaMK II (p-CaMK II) in the CA3 hippocampal region of mice using confocal immunofluorescence study. KA increased the CaMK II, p-CaMK II, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and complement receptor type 3 (OX-42) immunoreactivities (IR) at 30 min after KA treatment in mouse hippocampal area. In studies, nevertheless KA-induced CaMK II is expressed in neurons or astrocytes or microglia, p-CaMK II is expressed only in neurons. Thus, our results suggest that the activated CaMK II in early time may be performed important roles only in neurons but not in the astrocytes and microglia. 相似文献

Ultrastructural localisation of NADPH-d/nNOS expression in the superior cervical ganglion of the hamster 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This study examined NADPH-d and nNOS expression in the SCG of hamsters. By light microscopy, numerous NADPH-d/NOS positive processes were widely distributed in the ganglion. Ultrastructurally, the NADPH-d reaction product was associated with the membranous organelles of neuronal soma, dendrites, myelinated fibres, small granular cells, and axon profiles bearing agranular vesicles. The NOS immunoreaction product, on the other hand, was localised in the cytoplasm of principal neurons and dendrites. Some of the NADPH-d/NOS labelled processes formed junctional contacts including synapses or zonulae adherentia. Compared with the neurons, the nonneuronal cells in the ganglion, namely, macrophages, satellite cells and endothelial cells were labelled by NADPH-d but devoid of nNOS immunoreaction product. The results suggest that the NADPH-d/NOS positive fibres in the SCG originate not only from the projecting fibres of the lateral horns of thoracic spinal cord, but also from the principal neurons and small granular cells; some may represent visceral afferent fibres. Electron microscopic morphometry has shown that about 67% of the principal neurons contain NADPH-d reaction product, and that the majority were small to medium sized neurons based on cross-sectional areas in image analysis. On the basis of the present morphological study, it is concluded NO is produced by some local neurons and possibly some nonneuronal cells in the SCG as well as some fibres of extrinsic origin. In this connection, NO may serve either as a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. 相似文献

We investigated the role of IL-1alpha and IL-1beta expressed in the reactive gliosis following hippocampal damage induced by trimethyltin (TMT). IL-1alpha immunoreactivity was expressed earlier in small glial cells on day 4 post-TMT, while IL-1beta expression was obvious in large swollen glial cells on day 14 post-TMT. Both IL-1alpha and IL-1beta immunoreactivities were double-labeled with astrocyte marker, vimentin, but not with a microglia marker, OX-42. The expression of both IL-1alpha/beta was enhanced by adrenalectomy (ADX) prior to TMT administration. Corticosterone (CORT) or dexamethasone (DEX) supplementation not only cancelled effects of ADX, but also partially reversed TMT-induced enhancement of IL-1alpha/beta expressions. These changes coincided with TMT-induced neuronal death in CA3 pyramidal cells of the hippocampus. It is suggested that IL-1alpha/beta expressed in reactive astrocytes participate in TMT neurotoxicity via type II glucocorticoid receptors. 相似文献

The mesencephalic dorsolateral periaqueductal gray (dlPAG) mediates different modalities of aversive behaviors including pain and nociception and is anatomically delineated from other columns of the PAG by its content of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate diaphorase (NADPH-d). In many brain regions, neuronal NADPH-d is a nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) and NO production mediates many nociceptive and aversive behavioral responses. The aim of this study was to determine how the noxious stimulant capsaicin affects intracellular dynamics in the dlPAG evidenced by Fos protein immunoreactivity (index of intracellular activation) and the NADPH-d reactivity. The basic hypothesis tested was that the effect of systemic capsaicin administration involved activation of the NO-producing machinery in the dlPAG. Compared to vehicle, capsaicin (50mg/kg, subcutaneous) significantly increased NADPH-d reactivity and Fos expression along the dlPAG neuraxis. However, less than one percent of the capsaicin-induced Fos activation occurred in NADPH-d-positive cells. This suggests that different intracellular mechanisms involving NO and activation of at least one other transmitter substance underlie the effects of capsaicin in the dlPAG. Although NADPH-d is a marker for constitutive NOS, only about two-thirds of the NADPH-d-positive neurons in the dlPAG were colocalized with neuronal NOS immunoreactive cells. This observation suggests that in contrast to other brain regions, neuronal NOS is unlikely to account for all NADPH-d activity in the dlPAG. Taken together, the present results show that the effect of capsaicin requires activation of at least one other transmitter and NADPH-d-dependent NO synthesis involving, but not limited to, the neuronal NOS isoform. 相似文献

Expression of NADPH-diaphorase and nitric oxide synthase in lumbosacral motoneurons after knee joint immobilisation in the guinea pig 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The expression of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in spinal ventral horn neurons was studied in the guinea pig after right knee joint immobilisation (RKJI). At 1 wk after RKJI, neurons in the ipsilateral ventral horn from L4 to S1 segments showed a moderate reactivity for NADPH-d staining. At 2 wk, NADPH-d labelled neurons were also observed in the contralateral ventral horn. Ipsilateral NOS immunoreactive cells were not detectable until wk 2. The intensity of NADPH-d and NOS labelled neurons in the bilateral ventral horns was sustained, peaking at the 4th wk after RKJI. In guinea pigs subjected to 4 wk of RKJI and subsequently released from the immobilisation for 2 and 4 wk, NADPH-d and NOS reactivity in ventral horn neurons diminished. The expression of NADPH-d positive neurons differed from that of NOS labelled neurons in terms of time interval, cell number and staining intensity, the latter being later, fewer and weaker. It is suggested that the induction and upregulation of NADPH-d and NOS are attributable to reduced activity of muscles acting on the knee joint after RKJI; the changes are reversible. It is speculated that increased levels of NO production are involved in protective mechanisms against possible neuronal degeneration as a consequence of target dysfunction. 相似文献

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemistry was used to study the development of neurons synthesizing nitric oxide (NO) in the postnatal rat hippocampus. We show that NADPH-d reactive somata and processes are present from the day of birth until adulthood in the Ammon's horn. The dentate gyrus, however, has a more delayed period of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression with the staining appearing only by the end of the first postnatal week. Our results suggest that the time course of NOS expression correlates with the developmental sequence of events described in the hippocampus and that NO could be involved in the development of connections in this structure. 相似文献

Cortical spreading depression (SD) is characterized by propagation of neuronal/glial membrane depolarization throughout the unilateral cerebral cortex and has been linked to several neurological disorders, including migraine aura and epilepsy. SD induction resulted in a dramatic increase in BrdU-incorporated cells in the ipsilateral cortical hemisphere that was dependent on the number of elicited SD. Immunohistochemical studies revealed that 53% of the BrdU-labeled cells in the SD-generated cortex were NG2 immunopositive and 25% were OX-42 immunopositive. The remaining 22% of BrdU-incorporated cells showed no immunoreactivity to GST-rr, GFAP, NeuN, NG2 or OX-42.These data indicate that functional excitation of the cerebral cortex induces proliferative response in cortical cells, which may subsequently differentiate into glial progenitor or microglia within 3 days after stimulation. 相似文献
