Experimental Models for Astrocyte Activation and Fibrous Gliosis

TL;DR: If reactive fibrous gliosis could be inhibited or delayed in trauma and disease, the other cell types, oligodendroglia and neurons, might have the opportunity to respond and re-establish in a more normal manner; conversely, a highly anaplastic astrocytoma might be induced to differentiate.

In vivo induction of the growth associated protein GAP43/B-50 in rat astrocytes following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion.

TL;DR: The present data suggest that certain astrocytes could be induced to synthesize GAP43 in vivo in response to an ischemic insult in adult rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparison of two factors affecting the proliferation of non-neuronal (glial) cells in vitro

TL;DR: It is suggested that intact neurons and neuronal sonicate probably stimulate [3H]thymidine incorporation by distinctly different mechanisms, and similarities between stimulation of non-neuronal cell proliferation in vitro and reactive gliosis in vivo are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-neuronal cell proliferation in tissue culture: implications for axonal regeneration in the central nervous system.

TL;DR: Diminishing the potential of non-neuronal cells to act as a barrier by controlling their proliferation may, therefore, be of importance in enhancing the regenerative response of central neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electron microscopic studies of serially sectioned cat spinal alpha-motoneurons. I. Effects of microelectrode impalement and intracellular staining with the fluorescent dye "Procion Yellow".

TL;DR: Cat spinal α‐motoneurons appeared to differ from control mot oneurons mainly with regard to a focal disarrangement of the cell body periphery, probably a result of the microelectrode injury, and a certain degree of damage to some large boutons.
