Abstract

The topographical distribution of myelin basic protein (MBP) and of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFA) have been compared in the CNS of 18-day-old normal, quaking, and jimpy mice using indirect immunofluorescence. Comparison was made in brain and spinal cord sections. MBP was strongly decreased in quaking and jimpy mice in all parts of the CNS. A pronounced gliosis was observed in jimpy mice with occurrence of numerous hypertrophied astrocytes. To a lesser extent, an astrocytic reaction was also observed in quaking CNS.

Astrocytes

Astrocytes are glial cells that support the blood-brain barrier, facilitate neurotransmission, provide nutrients to neurons, and help repair damaged nervous tissues. Here is the latest research.
