The expressional alterations of CSF-1R after ischemic injury of cerebral cortex / 中国应用生理学杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>AIM</b>To observe the expressional alterations of colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) after ischemic injury of cerebral cortex, and study the function of colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1)/CSF-1R signal during the process of ischemic injury and repair of central nervous system (CNS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We examined the distribution and expression of CSF-1R in normal brain tissues and ischemic brain tissues by immunohistology and Western blot analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The expression of CSF-1R in neurons could be up-regulated by ischemic injury in CNS.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CSF-1/CSF-1R might take part in the process of ischemic injury and repair.</p>
