摘要
The expression of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) was studied in normal dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of juvenile and foetal humans, using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques. There was an expression of IL-6-like immunoreactivity in more than 75% out of neuronal cells in the juvenile ganglia with a peripheral localization, and also an expression in the foetal ganglion cells. There was a co-localization of IL-6 with substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in more than 60% of the DRG cells, respectively. By in situ hybridization 0.9% of the cells in the juvenile ganglia and 1.1% of the cells in the foetal ganglia showed a positive signal for IL-6. In addition, expression of IL-6 was found in juvenile medulla spinalis, preferentially in the white matter. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
