Time course of ciliary neurotrophic factor mRNA expression is coincident with the presence of protoplasmic astrocytes in traumatized rat striatum

Abstract
Adrenal grafting for Parkinson's disease has led to modest functional improvement despite poor graft survival. One explanation is a neurotrophic response within the traumatized striatum. This study was undertaken to investigate the time course of the astrocytic response in vivo and in vitro, and the expression of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) mRNA following striatal injury. Unilateral stereotaxic biopsy of the rat striatum was performed and gelatin sponge (gel-foam) was immediately placed into the biopsy cavity. Rats were sacrificed on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 28 post biopsy. Immunohistochemical staining of the traumatized striatum with antibodies to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was carried out. The reactive astrocytes which appeared within 7 days after trauma were mostly protoplasmic on the basis of morphology, and maximal on day 7, being 30 times the level in the normal striatum. After day 7, fibrous astrocytes appeared and increased up to day 28, while protoplasmic astrocytes decreased. In addition, immunocytochemical double staining of short term cultured astrocytes from the traumatized striatum with anti-A2B5 and anti-GFAP antibodies revealed that 84% and 90% of astrocytes were type 1 astrocytes on days 3 and 7, respectively; however, by day 28 47% of astrocytes were type 2. Northern blot analysis revealed that CNTF mRNA expression was up-regulated and peaked on day 7, coincident with a predominance of protoplasmic astrocytes in vivo and type 1 astrocytes in vitro, respectively. These findings suggest that the expression of CNTF mRNA is part of the early astrocytic response to trauma, particularly associated with protoplasmic astrocytes in vivo and type 1 astrocytes in vitro.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
