Collagen as Adherent Substratum and Inducer of Dorsal Root Ganglia Outgrowth
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Neurite outgrowth from dorsal root ganglion (DRG) explants is a method of evaluating neurotrophic activity of growth factors. When complete medium containing collagen was supplemented with nerve growth factor (NGF) DRG outgrowth was observed after 18 h. In the absence of NGF and in the presence of collagen, the DRG outgrowth took place after 72 h. In wells not supplemented with collagen gel in substratum, no DRG outgrowth was observed. Partially, DRG differentiation was observed in the presence of NGF. In the absence of NGF and collagen, there was no DRG outgrowth detected. It seems that, in some circumstances, cells degenerated by DRG may be an indication of an apoptosis phenomenon. Therefore, we suggested that collagen as a substratum is more effective than NGF

متن کاملDorsal root ganglia neurite outgrowth measured as a function of changes in microelectrode array resistance
Current research in prosthetic device design aims to mimic natural movements using a feedback system that connects to the patient's own nerves to control the device. The first step in using neurons to control motion is to make and maintain contact between neurons and the feedback sensors. Therefore, the goal of this project was to determine if changes in electrode resistance could be detected w...
متن کاملPeroxisomes 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 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...
