Immunohistochemical Expression of GFAP in the Brain Astrocytes of Deceased Newborns Depending on the Postmortem Interval.
The changes in astrocytes and their role in the development of brain diseases can be identified by morphological analysis of tissue specimens, in particular, by immunohistochemical detection of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). The study presents analysis of GFAP expression in white matter astrocytes of deceased newborns depending on the duration of the postmortem period. Autopsy material of the brain tissue obtained from 48 deceased newborns was divided into 8 groups depending on the duration of the postmortem period. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed with antibodies to GFAP in tissue samples taken from the superior and inferior brain areas relative to the position of the body stored before autopsy. The area of GFAP+ staining per field of view was determined in the white matter using an image analysis system. Morphometric analysis revealed a decrease in the mean values of the area of GFAP+ staining, i.e. the number of fibrotic astrocytes and their processes decreased with increasing the duration of the postmortem period. The mean areas of GFAP+ staining in the superior and inferior areas of the white matter did not differ significantly between the groups. The identified changes reflect the development of nonspecific postmortem changes which should be considered when taking tissue samples for molecular biological studies and in differential forensic diagnosis with lifetime lesions and diseases.
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.
