Abstract
In the experiment with transplantation of neuronal mesencephalic precursors derived from induced pluripotent stem cells into the striatum of rats with unilateral 6-OHDA destruction of the substantia nigra, we evaluated changes in the immunostaining for α-synuclein during differentiation and maturation of grafted neurons 1, 3, and 6 months after the surgery. The content of α-synuclein in transplanted neurons peaked by the third month after surgery, as well as changes in the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio of α-synuclein in neurons by the 3rd and 6th months relative to the 1st month after transplantation were revealed. Changes in α-synuclein localization and content were associated with a gradual decrease in doublecortin expression and an increase in immunostaining for neuronal enolase and synaptophysin as the graft matured. The high content of total α-synuclein in developing neurons may be a key factor of spreading of α-synuclein toxic species in graft cells and a cause of cell damage.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine presents original peer reviewed research papers and brief reports on priority new research results in physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, oncology, etc. Novel trends in science are covered in new sections of the journal - Biogerontology and Human Ecology - that first appeared in 2005.
World scientific interest in stem cells prompted inclusion into Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine a quarterly scientific journal Cell Technologies in Biology and Medicine (a new Russian Academy of Medical Sciences publication since 2005). It publishes only original papers from the leading research institutions on molecular biology of stem and progenitor cells, stem cell as the basis of gene therapy, molecular language of cell-to-cell communication, cytokines, chemokines, growth and other factors, pilot projects on clinical use of stem and progenitor cells.
The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
