Axonal growth cone particles (AGCP) isolated from prenatal and postnatal rat brain had different high-affinity 5-HT uptake characteristics. In postnatal AGCP the uptake behaves as in the adult rat brain, while in the prenatal AGCP the uptake characteristics seem to be in a transitional stage. Also in prenatal AGCP we observed specific, high-affinity 5-HT binding sites. These results support the idea of an important role for 5-HT during axogenesis.
从产前和产后大鼠脑中分离出的轴突生长锥颗粒(AGCP)具有不同的高亲和力5-羟色胺摄取特性。在产后AGCP中,摄取情况与成年大鼠脑相同,而在产前AGCP中,摄取特性似乎处于过渡阶段。在产前AGCP中我们还观察到特异性的、高亲和力的5-羟色胺结合位点。这些结果支持了5-羟色胺在轴突发生过程中起重要作用这一观点。
