Abstract
Thalamic neuronal degeneration after neocortical lesions involve both anterograde and retrograde components. This study deals with the thalamic microglial response after neocortical aspiration lesions, using fluorogold fluorescent prelabeling, to identify retrogradely degenerating thalamocortical neurons, combined with histochemical or immunohistochemical staining of microglial cells. Adult male Wistar rats were injected with the retrograde fluorescent tracer fluorogold, in the right sensorimotor cortex (forepaw area) in order to retrogradely label thalamic neurons projecting to this area. After 1 week, the fluorogold injection site was removed by aspiration, axotomizing at the same time the thalamic projection neurons now retrogradely labeled with fluorogold. After 3, 7, 14, and 28 days the animals were killed and processed for nucleoside diphosphatase histochemistry or complement type 3 receptor immuno-histochemistry and class I and II major histocompatibility complex immunohistochemistry using OX42, OX18, and OX6 antibodies. The histological analysis showed a prominent and progressive nucleoside diphosphatase-, OX42-, and OX6-positive microglial cell response in the ventrolateral, posterior, and ventrobasal thalamic nuclei w...Continue Reading
