Formalin - Sensitive Cells in Spinal Ganglia
نویسنده
چکیده
Spinal ganglia of rabbits and cats were prepared for histological examination in a variety of ways. Dark staining multangular cells are present in sections after fixation with formaldehyde succeeded by (a) alcoholic dehydration; (b) sectioning with the freezing microtome. Sections treated in other ways, including freezing-drying, only have the typical small and large round cells. It is suggested that certain groups of cells, sensitized by formaldehyde fixation, can react by shrinkage on subsequent treatment by alcoholic dehydration or other procedures.

Role 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 کاملGeneration of monoclonal antibodies recognizing neuronal elements in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human tissue.
We used formalin-fixed human spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia as immunogens to generate monoclonal antibodies (mAb) which immunohistochemically react with neurons in formalin-fixed human tissue sections. Three of the mAb recognized all neuronal populations studied, including those in spinal cord, dorsal root ganglia, cerebellum, and cerebrum. A fourth mAb recognized neurons within spinal cor...

The experiment was performed on 5 sheep. Four animals were subjected to one-sided nephrectomy. The 5 sheep was sham-operated. The animals were kept alive for 21 days and subsequently put down and sectioned for the following material: the brain stem, spinal cord with all spinal ganglia, all the ganglia of the sympathetic trunk and the ganglia and plexuses of abdominal and pelvic cavities. The ma...
متن کاملRepeated Administration of Baclofen Modulates TRPV-1 Channel Expression by PKC Pathway in Dorsal Root Ganglia of Spinal Cord in Morphine Tolerance Model of Rats
Background: Tolerance and dependence to anti-nociceptive effect of morphine restricted its use. Nowadays co-administration of morphine and other drugs suggests diminishing this tolerance. Baclofen is one of the drugs that may be beneficial in the attenuation of tolerance to morphine. Studies have shown that changes in transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV-1) expression during admi...
متن کاملIntrathecal Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin Affect Formalin Induced c-Fos Expression in the Spinal Cord of Rats
Background: Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin belong to the calcitonin family of peptides and have high affinity binding sites in the rat spinal cord. The aim of this study was to characterize receptors for Amylin and Salmon Calcitonin functionally in the spinal cord of rats. We assessed the expression of c-Fos in response to intraplantar formalin in the lumbar regions of the spinal cord in consciou...
