Mesencephalic fragments from 14 day old embryonic rat brain were transplanted into the third ventricle of adult rats neonatally treated with monosodium glutamate. From two to twelve months after grafting, the implanted tissue was still present in the ventricle and contained TH immunoreactive neurons which displayed a normal appearance at ultrastructural level. While endogenous TH containing neurons were still present in dopaminergic regions of the recipient hypothalamus, grafted mesencephalic fragments could survive and develop. They contained TH immunopositive most probably dopaminergic neurons which are able, in some cases, to innervate the host brain. This model should be of interest in the study of neuroendocrine functions of dopaminergic neurons.

D008636 Mesencephalon The middle of the three primitive cerebral vesicles of the embryonic brain. Without further subdivision, midbrain develops into a short, constricted portion connecting the PONS and the DIENCEPHALON. Midbrain contains two major parts, the dorsal TECTUM MESENCEPHALI and the ventral TEGMENTUM MESENCEPHALI, housing components of auditory, visual, and other sensorimoter systems. Midbrain,Mesencephalons,Midbrains
D009474 Neurons The basic cellular units of nervous tissue. Each neuron consists of a body, an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the NERVOUS SYSTEM. Nerve Cells,Cell, Nerve,Cells, Nerve,Nerve Cell,Neuron
