大鼠和小鼠脑内的GnRH神经元及其纤维通路——免疫组织化学研究

本文应用ABC免疫酶染色技术,观察了大鼠和小鼠脑内GnRH神经元及其纤维的分布。结果发现90%以上的GnRH神经元胞体集中于终板血管器附近的斜角带一视前内侧区,并向头背侧延至内侧隔核,向尾外侧伸到视上核区。内侧基底下丘脑区未见阳性胞体。GnRH纤维经室周和外侧束终止于正中隆起:在头端存在于其全层和全宽,向后渐分成两束,集中于正中隆起外侧部。对啮齿类与灵长类GnRH系统的差异及其在生殖中的意义进行了讨论。

GNRH NEURONS AND THEIR PATHMAYS IN THE BRAINS OF RATS AND MICE——AN IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY.

By means of ABC immunoenzyme technique, the distribution of GnRH neurons and fibers in the brains of rats and mice was observed, The results showed that more than 90% of GnRH neuronal perikarya were concentrated in the diagonal band-medial preoptic area near the organum vasculosum lamina terminalis, extending rostro-dorsally to the medial septic nucleus and caudo-laterally to the supraoptic nucleus region. No GnRH cell body could be found in the mediobasal hypothalamus, GnRH fibers terminated in the median eminence via the periventricular and lateral tracts. In the rostral median eminence, fibers were present in its entire layers and width, and caudally separated into two laterally-located bundles. The difference of GnRH system between rodents and primates, as well as its significance in reproduction are discussed.
