摘要

Neurotrophins are essential factors for the structural, neurochemical and functional maturation of the brain including developmental and adult plasticity. Northern blots and polymerase chain reaction revealed the expression of neurotrophin 4 (NT4), neurotrophin 3 (NT3), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF) in the cortex. The cellular producers of NT3 and BDNF have been characterized by anatomical methods as being mostly pyramidal, and the tyrosine kinase B (TrkB) receptor is expressed by many cortical neurons. However, these methods have so far failed to identify the cells producing NT4 and NGF mRNA. These factors are much lower in expression than, e.g. BDNF, and apparently remain below detection levels of in situ hybridization. Given their specific actions on cell types and afferent systems, knowledge about the producing cell types is highly desirable. To narrow down on the producing cell types, we quantified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)the developmental changes of BDNF, NT3, NT4, NGF and TrkB mRNA expression in total visual cortex lysates, and in the cortical layers dissected by tangential cryostat sectioning. We found dramatic changes in laminar expression of NT3 and NGF, mild changes of NT4, and no changes of BDNF and TrkB mRNA. For instance, NT3 is important early on for thalamocortical axons, and we found transient peaks of NT3 mRNA expression first in layer VI, then in layer IV. NT4 mRNA was in layers IV and VI, suggesting NT4 protein production in thalamorecipient layers, but peak expression gradually shifted to upper layers as did NGF expression. The layer-specific developmental expression shifts of neurotrophin mRNAs correlate with morphogenetic processes.
