Peroxisomes in dorsal root ganglia.
Bodies with the morphologic and cytochemical characteristics of peroxisomes have been identified in the satellite and Schwann cells of rat dorsal root ganglia. They are membrane-delimited, round or oval structures which contain a moderately electron-dense matrix but lack a crystalline core. On incubation of the tissue in a cytochemical medium for demonstration of peroxisomes, these bodies show ...
متن کاملLocalization of P2X and P2Y receptors in dorsal root ganglia of the cat.
The distribution of P2X and P2Y receptor subtypes in upper lumbosacral cat dorsal root ganglia (DRG) has been investigated using immunohistochemistry. Intensity of immunoreactivity for six P2X receptors (P2X(5) receptors were immuno-negative) and the three P2Y receptors examined in cat DRG was in the order of P2Y(2) = P2Y(4)>P2X(3)>P2X(2) = P2X(7)>P2X(6)>P2X(1) = P2X(4)>P2Y(1). P2X(3), P2Y(2), ...
متن کاملElectrical stimulation of the sacral dorsal gray commissure evokes relaxation of the external urethral sphincter in the cat.
Stimulation of the pontine micturition center (PMC) results in micturition, i.e. an immediate relaxation of the urethral sphincter and a contraction of the detrusor muscle of the bladder. The PMC generates the bladder contraction by way of a direct excitatory pathway to the parasympathetic bladder motoneurons in the sacral cord. The idea is that the PMC produces the relaxation of the urethral s...
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 کاملNeurogenesis in postnatal mouse dorsal root ganglia.
Neurogenesis continues in various regions of the central nervous system (CNS) throughout life. As the mitogen basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) can proliferate neuronal precursors of CNS neurons in culture, and is also upregulated within adult dorsal root ganglia following axotomy, it is possible that the postnatal dorsal root ganglia contain bFGF-responsive neuronal precursors. We undertoo...
