Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) after transplanted into vitreous and the effects on the regeneration of retina ganglion cells (RGCs) after optic nerve microcrushed.METHODS: After optic nerve microcrushed in adult rat, 2?104/2 ?L NSCs or 2 ?L 0.1 mol/L PBS was injected into vitreous. Animals were divided into control group (MC group, MC+PBS group) and experiment group (MC+NSCs). Animals in each group were allowed to survive for 3, 4, 5 weeks, respectively. The regenerating RGCs were labeled retrogradely with granular blue, and the numbers of regenerating RGCs in each retina were observed under fluorescent microscope. In addition after 5 animals in MC+NSCs group survived for 4 weeks, rat eyeballs were removed and prepared as freezing microtome sections for observing the migration of NSCs and NF, GFAP, CNP immumodetection.RESULTS: Compared the mean numbers of regenerating RGCs between experiment group and control group at 3, 4, 5 weeks, the difference was significant (P
