Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of neuro-specific DNA repair gene Nbn on the development of granular cells in hippocampus of monatal mouse. Methods The hippocampus development of postnatal mouse was evaluated by comparing the morphological differences of granular cells in hippocampus between the Nbn gene knockout mice (Nbn-CNS-Del) and the controls (Nbn-CNS-Ctr). Serial sections, immunohistochemistry and stereology methods were used to quantitatively analyze the development of granular cells in hippocampus of mice on the postnatal day 7, 14 and 21 (P7d, P14d and P21d). Results In Nbn-CNS-Ctr group, the granular layer in hippocampus manifested "C" in shape, the section area of granular layer was increased, and so was the cell body of granular cells in hippocampus during P7d to P21d; the inner arm granular cells in granular layer of hippocampus emerged on P7d, and most obvious changes occurred during P7d to P14d. While in Nbn-CNS-Del group, the granular layer in "C" shape were seen to form in most of the specimens during P7d to P21d, though they were sparsely distributed. Compared with that of the mice in Nbn-CNS-Ctr group, the development of granular layer in hippocampus of the mice in Nbn-CNS-Del group lagged obviously, and the sectional area of granular cells decreased significantly (P
