摘要
We investigated the temporal and spatial expression patterns of the GDNF gene after subjecting rats to an acute contusion injury of the spinal cord using the weight drop technique. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) revealed that GDNF transcription in the spinal cord began to increase within 30 min after injury and peaked within 3 h. Immunohistochemical analysis showed GDNF immunoreactivity to be present mainly in microglia and macrophages 1 day after injury,but not in neurons or astrocytes. This immediate upregulation of GDNF gene expression may be a component of an inflammatory process and probably exerts a protective effect on neurons following spinal cord injury (SCI).
