Lectin binding identifies a subpopulation of neurons in chick dorsal root ganglia.
We screened a variety of lectins with different sugar specificates to determine whether subpopulations of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in the chick can be distinguished by the carbohydrates they express. Of the 15 lectins tested only those that recognize N-acetylgalactosamine (galNac) residues labeled a subset of DRG neurons. For example, Dolichos biflorus (DBA) labeled a population of sm...
متن کاملPaclitaxel-Resistant Neurons in Dorsal Root Ganglia
Paclitaxel is an antineoplastic drug, and its usage is often limited by severe peripheral polyneuropathy characterized by symptoms in remote extremities. It is suggested that subpopulations of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons are impacted functionally and/or structurally. In this study, the neurotoxic effect of this drug in cultured rat DRG neurons was analyzed by measuring their neurite leng...
متن کاملRole of myosin Va in neuritogenesis of chick dorsal root ganglia nociceptive neurons.
Myosin-Va, widely distributed throughout the developing nervous system, is involved in the transport of vesicles and other intracellular components with its globular tail domain (GTD) implicated in cargo recognition/interaction. Inactivation of myosin-Va in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons of chick embryos, in vitro, decreases the rate of filopodial extension. MYO5A mutant mice have severe neu...
متن کاملRole of a voltage-sensitive calcium channel blocker on inhibition of apoptosis in sensory neurons of cultured dorsal root ganglia in adult rat
Introduction: Under pathological conditions, abnormal increase in intracellular calcium concentrations is believed to induce cell death. In the present study, a voltage-sensitive calcium channel blocker (loperamide hydrochloride) was used to investigate its role in inhibition of apoptosis in sensory neurons of cultured spinal dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Methods: L5 DRG from adult rats were di...
متن کاملLineage of neurons and glia in chick dorsal root ganglia: analysis in vivo with a recombinant retrovirus.
We used retrovirus-mediated gene transfer to study the lineage of neural crest cells in chick embryos. Individual crest cells were infected before they migrated from the neural tube, and their clonal progeny were subsequently revealed in sensory ganglia and associated structures by a histochemical stain for the viral gene product (lacZ). We found that crest cells were multipotential in several ...
