Abstract:: |
Objective To study the relationship between the expression of GAP-43 mRNA and nerve regeneration in rat brain after 60Co γ-irradiation. Methods Wistar rats were subjected to wholebody irradiation with 8 Gy 60Co γ-rays.The expression of GAP-43 was detected by in situ hybridization histochemistry using DigcRNA probe. Results It was found that the expression of GAP-43 mRNA increased in the cerebral cortex,caudate,putamen,globus pallidus,thalamus and hypothalamus one week after 8 Gy 60Co γ-irradiation.The peak of GAP-43 mRNA expression was observed in the fourth week and then began to decrease but still remained at a higher than normal level.However,it decreased to a low level after 7 weeks. Conclusion Enhanced expression of GAP-43 mRNA after 60Co γ-irradiation in rat brain is associated with nerve regeneration and reconstruction of synapse. |
