  • The division, distribution and migration of the macroglial cells in the juvenile mouse brain were investigated with the radioautography. Forty mice (ICR) were randomly subdivided into two groups. The twenty mice from group 1 were weighing initially 5 to 6g, aged 10 to 12 days and were sacrificied at 2 hrs, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 days after a single intraperitoneal injection of $^3H$-thymichine ($4{\mu}$ Ci/g of body weight). Twenty mice from group 2 were weighing intially 2.5 to 5g, aged 3 to 8 days and were sacrificed at 2 hrs, 2, 3, 5. 7, 10, 15 and 20 days after a single($4{\mu}$ Ci/g of body weight) and/or after intraperitoneal repeated injections($2{\mu}$ Ci/g of body weight/interval) at 2, 3 and 5 days after the first injection. The brain preparations were processed for autoradiogrouphy using Kodak NTB-3 emulsion following development in Kodak D-19, fixation in Kodak fixer, and then stained with cresyl echt violet or hematoxylin counterstain. The labeling index of the ectodermal glial cells in the subependymal layers of the lateral ventricles (SLLV), corpus callosum (CC), molecular layer of the neocortex (MLN ), inner layer except the molecular layer in the neocortex (ILN) and medulla of the cerebrum (MC) were invested. 1. Labeling cells appeared from 2 hour and some of them sustained in the 20 day after injection. In the single injection group, the peak of the labeling index reached a 7.6% at 3 day, 3.6% at 7 day, 3.3% at 2 day, 5.0% at 3 day and 2.3% at 2 day from the SLLV. CC, MLN, ILN and MC, respectively. In the repeated injecton group, the peak of the labeling index reached a 32.0 at 7 day, 11.0% at 10 day, 89% at 7 day, 16.0% at 10 day and 10.8% at 15 day from the SLLV, CC, MLN, ILM and MC, respectively. 2 The glial cells of the SLLV were recognized as to be migrated into the CC and to be not or less to be into the MC and ILN but to be not into the MLN. Glial cell aggregates in the neocotex and MC were recognized as to be proliferated and then disappeared in the itself regions.

  • 목 적 : 천궁은 중추신경계 신경조직의 손상을 감소시키는 데에 유효한 것으로 보고되었다. 따라서 손상 척수신경에서 천궁에 의한 각각의 신경조직의 반응성을 조사하기 위하여 흰쥐의 손상된 척수 신경에 천궁 추출물을 처리하여 관찰하였다. 방 법 : 흰쥐의 척수조직에 타박손상을 가한 후 천궁을 처리하고 손상부위의 GAP-43과 Cdc2 및 Erk1/2 단백질의 수준, 축삭 및 성상세포의 수, 아교상혼의 정도를 각각 확인하여 손상부위 및 피질척수로의 재성장 여부를 관찰하였다. 결 과 : 천궁처리에 의하여 손상부위에서는 GAP-43과 Cdc2 및 Erk1/2 단백질의 수준이 증가하였다. 손상척수 부위에서 성상세포의 수는 천궁처리에 의하여 비손상대조군에 비해 증가하였다. CSPG 단백질에 의하여 확인된 아교상흔의 정도는 천궁처리에 의하여 감소하였다. Dil에 의한 정방향 염색에 의하여 피질척수로를 확인하였으며, 측방축삭의 싹돌기는 천궁처리에 의하여 손상부위 상단부 및 하단부에 각각 증가하였다. 고분자미세관을 손상척수부위에 이식하여 미세관내부로 축삭 및 비신경세포의 이주양상을 분석한 결과 천궁처리에 의하여 축삭 및 성상교세포의 이주증가를 확인하였다. 결론 : 천궁이 손상척수신경부위에서 비신경세포 특히 성상세포의 활성화에 기여함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 활성화는 손상 피질척수로 축삭의 재성장 반응을 증가시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

  • Degenerative retinal diseases affect millions of people worldwide, which can lead to the loss of vision. However, therapeutic approaches that can reverse this process are limited. Recent efforts have allowed the possibility of the stem cell-based regeneration of retinal cells and repair of injured retinal tissues. Although the direct differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into terminally differentiated photoreceptor cells comprises one approach, a series of studies revealed the intrinsic regenerative potential of the retina using endogenous retinal stem cells. Muller glial cells, ciliary pigment epithelial cells, and retinal pigment epithelial cells are candidates for such retinal stem cells that can differentiate into multiple types of retinal cells and be integrated into injured or developing retina. In this review, we explore our current understanding of the cellular identity of these candidate retinal stem cells and their therapeutic potential for cell therapy against degenerative retinal diseases.

  • In the brain, glial cells serve in the role to sequester metal from the neural microenvironment and therefore play an important role as a cellular deposition site. The central nervous system is highly vulnerable to oxidative stress, and free iron can stimulate oxidative stress by the Fenton reaction. Aluminum may upregulates the transferrin-independent iron uptake system and stimulate oxidative stress. Nramp2. also known as DMT 1. is a 12-transmembrane(TM) domain protein responsible for dietary iron uptake as well as metal ions such as iron. lead, mangamese. zinc. copper, and cobait. (omitted)

  • Samryungbaikchul-san(SRBCS) has been used in oriental medicine for the treatments of gastrointestinal and neurological disorders. Here, potential protective function of SRBCS was investigated in neural tissues in Alzheimer's disease(AD) mouse model. In primary cultured cells from the spinal cord of newborn rats, treatment of ${\beta}$-amyloid peptide elevated cell counts positive to glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) or caspase 3 immunoreactivity, but the co-treatment of SRBCS reduced positive cell counts. In vivo administration of scopolamine, an inhibitor of muscarinic receptor, resulted in increases in the number of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) and caspase 3-positive cells in hippocampal subfields, which was then decreased by the treatment of SRBCS or acetylcholinesterase inhibitor galathamine. The present data suggest that SRBCS may play a protective role in damaged neural tissues caused by scopolamine treatments in mice.

  • A zinc-specific method (selenium method) has been employed to identify the zinc-containing cells in the cerebellum of the rats. When rats were allowed to survive 24 hours after the sodium selenite administration, zinc selenide reaction products formed in zinc-containing cellular boutons are retrogradely transported to the somata of those boutons. And the zinc selenide products accumulated in somata of the cells can be rendered visible by silver amplification of developer. Zinc-containing cells identified by the method were Bergmann glial and granule cells. Labeled zinc-containing cells were absent in molecular layer and white matter of the cerebellum. In ultrastructural level, the zinc selenide products were located in lysosomes of somata of the zinc-containing cells.

  • Tanycytic ependymoma is a rare variant of ependymoma that commonly affects the cervical and thoracic spinal cord. It usually arises as intramedullary lesions, and extramedullary cases are extremely rare. We report a case of a 44-year-old woman who was diagnosed with tanycytic ependymoma in her lumbar spine at level 2-3. The tumor mass developed in an intradural extramedullary location. Histopathologically, tanycytic ependymoma can be misdiagnosed as schwannoma or pilocytic astrocytoma. Immunohistochemical findings such as strong positivity for glial fibrillary acidic protein, perinuclear dot-like positive patterns for epithelial membrane antigen, and focal positivity for S100 protein are helpful in diagnosing tanycytic ependymoma. It is important to be aware of this rare tumor to ensure appropriate patient management and accurate prognosis.

  • The mechanism by which lead enters glial cells was examined. The uptake of lead reached saturation when assays were performed in buffers at pH 5.5 and 7.4. The Vmax and Km was 2.7 pmoles/mg protein/min and 13.4 M in the buffer at pH 7.4, respectively, whereas the Vmax and Km was 329 fmoles/mg and 8.2 M in the buffer at pH 5.5, respectively. Uptake in a buffer at pH 5.5 but not at pH 7.4 was inhibited by iron. Cells treated with the iron chelator desferoxamine displayed higher levels of the divalent metal transporter mRNA and protein.
