【Abstract】 To study the responsibility of neural precursors in the subventricular zone in adult rat after a unilateral lesion in the nigrostriatal pathway, the 6-hydroxydopamine(6-OHDA) was unilaterally injected into the striatum in adult rat. 10 days later, bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) was injected (i.p.) twice a day for 4 days in those rats. The brain sections were immunohistochemically stained to detect BrdU-, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-, nestin- and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)- immunoreactive cells in the subventicular zone, the striatum and the substantia nigra. The results showed that the BrdU- positive cells increased significantly in the SVZ ipsilateral to the striatal injection. Also, the number of GFAP-, nestin-positive cells were increased specially in the same side of SVZ zone. A large number of BrdU-, GFAP- and nestin-labelled cells were seen in the injected side of the striatum, compared with only a few of GFAP positive cells in contralateral side. Some BrdU-positive cells were showed to have tendency of migration from the SVZ to lesioned striatum. Neither BrdU-labeled cells nor GFAP- and nestin-labeled cells were found on both sides of substantia nigra after the lesion, although the TH-positive cells were decreased dramatically. The results suggest that the neural precursors in the SVZ can be increased and migrated after a lesion in the nigrostriatal pathway in the adult rat.更多还原
