Abstract:
Objective To explore the expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit-1 (NMDAR1) in the ependymal cells of the third ventricle of rat. Methods The immunohistochemistry technique was used. Results (1)NMDAR1-immunoreaction (NMDAR1-IR) was strongly expressed in the ependymal cells of the third ventricle; (2)There was no significant sex difference in morphology and distribution of the NMDAR1-IR ependymal cells between male and female. Conclusion The present investigation provided the morphological evidence supporting that glutamate of CSF might regulate ependymal cells via NMDAR.
