What is NADPH-diaphorase in the developing rat: Lower brainstem and cervical spinal cord, with special reference to the trigemino-solitary complex about?
A previous study indicated that in adult rat, a distinctive neuronal group in the dorsomedial division of the subnucleus oralis of the spinal trigeminal nucleus (SpVo) and the rostrolateral part of the nucleus of the solitary tract (Sn) is stained for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d), and suggested that the labeled structures are involved with sensorimotor reflexive functions. This study aimed to characterize the developmental expression of NADPH-d in SpVo and Sn, including other areas of the lower brainstem and cervical spinal cord, by means of the enzyme histochemical staining technique, from the prenatal through the postnatal period. On embryonic day 12 lE12), no neurons in the brain were stained for NADPH-d, whereas blood vessels were stained. Labeling in the vessels was consistently present throughout pre-and postnatal periods but decreased with development. On E15, labeled neurons appeared in the dorsomedial part of SpVo and the rostrolateral part of Sn, but not in the other nuclei. The labeled neurons in both nuclei increased in numbers drastically to E17. Postnatally, they tended to increase gradually in Sn, but to decrease slightly in SpVo.
