Locus coeruleus neuron growth cones and spinal cord regeneration.
One of the major impediments to successful recovery of function after a spinal cord injury is thought to be the reaction of the neuronal growth cone to inhibitory influences in the local environment in or around the site of the injury. The growth cones of locus coeruleus neurons studied in vitro collapsed upon contact with an extract of CNS myelin but did not collapse on contact with an extract...
متن کاملA Quantitative Study of Synapses on Motor Neuron Dendritic Growth Cones in Developing Mouse Spinal Cord
The proportion of synaptic contacts occurring on dendrites as well as on dendritic growth cones and filopodia was determined from electron micrographs of developing mouse (C57BL/6J) spinal cord. Comparable areas of the marginal zone adjacent to the lateral motor nucleus were sampled from specimens on the 13th-16th days of embryonic development (E13-E16). At the beginning of this period, synapse...
متن کاملNoradrenergic responses of spinal neurons in locus coeruleus-spinal cord co-cultures.
Locus coeruleus (LC) explants were co-cultured with dissociated spinal neurons of mice. Nerve fibers exhibiting catecholamine fluorescence radiated from the explants and frequently invested spinal cord (SC) neurons close to the explants. Electrical stimulation of the explant and iontophoretic application of norepinephrine evoked a spectrum of slow depolarizing, hyperpolarizing, and biphasic res...
متن کاملOxygen Radicals Elicit Paralysis and Collapse of Spinal Cord Neuron Growth Cones upon Exposure to Proinflammatory Cytokines
A persistent inflammatory and oxidative stress is a hallmark of most chronic CNS pathologies (Alzheimer's (ALS)) as well as the aging CNS orchestrated by the proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β). Loss of the integrity and plasticity of neuronal morphology and connectivity comprises an early step in neuronal degeneration and ultimate decline...
