CELLULAR LOCALIZATION OF SUPPRESSOR OF CYTOKINE SIGNALING-3 IN ADULT RAT RETINA / 解剖学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the basic expression and cellular localization of SOCS-3 in normal rat retina. Methods Neuro-immunocytochemistry techniques were used. Results SOCS-3 positive cells were widely distributed in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) and inner nuclear layer (INL) in the retina. In the GCL, SOCS-3 immunoreactivity was mainly in the neuclei of the ganglion cells.Some of the SOCS-3 positive cells in INL were M?ller cells.Conclusion Basal expression of SOCS-3 is widely present in the neurons and glia in normal adult rat retina and mainly in the form of nuclear protein.
