Induction of Fos protein immunoreactivity by spinal cord contusion.
The objective of the present study was to identify neurons in the central nervous system that respond to spinal contusion injury in the rat by monitoring the expression of the nuclear protein encoded by the c-fos gene, an activity-dependent gene, in spinal cord and brainstem regions. Rats were anesthetized with urethane and the injury was produced by dropping a 5-g weight from 20.0 cm onto the ...

متن کاملSystemic morphine suppresses noxious stimulus-evoked Fos protein-like immunoreactivity in the rat spinal cord.
Previous experiments have shown that noxious stimulation increases expression of the c-fos proto-oncogene in subpopulations of spinal cord neurons. c-fos expression was assessed by immunostaining for Fos, the nuclear phosphoprotein product of the c-fos gene. In this study, we examined the effect of systemic morphine on Fos-like immunoreactivity (FLI) evoked in the formalin test, a widely used m...
متن کاملIncreased expression of spinal cord Fos protein induced by bladder stimulation after spinal cord injury.
These studies examined Fos protein expression in spinal cord neurons synaptically activated by stimulation of bladder afferent pathways after spinal cord injury (SCI). In urethan-anesthetized Wistar rats after SCI for 6 wk, intravesical saline distension significantly (P </= 0.005) increased the number of Fos-immunoreactive (IR) cells in the rostrolumbar (L1, 38 cells/section; L2, 29 cells/sect...
متن کاملThermostabilized chondroitinase ABC Promotes Neuroprotection after Contusion Spinal Cord Injury
Background: Chondroitinase ABC (cABC), due to its loosening impact on the extracellular matrix scaffold, has been used to enhance regeneration of injured axonal tracts after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, cABC thermal instability at physiological temperature has limited its clinical application. The disaccharide trehalose has been shown to increase the stability of cABC in body temperature....
