Exogenous NGF alters a critical motor period in rat striatum
IN previous studies we found that there is a critical period during rat postnatal development when motor training starting at age 30 days (P30) but not before or after this age, induces a bilateral lifetime drop in B(max) of the muscarinic radioligand [3H]QNB in striatum. We examined the possibility...

IN previous studies we found that there is a critical period during rat postnatal development when motor training starting at age 30 days (P30) but not before or after this age, induces a bilateral lifetime drop in B(max) of the muscarinic radioligand [3H]QNB in striatum. We examined the possibility that striatal NGF level would be a determining factor for the normal occurrence of this synaptic plasticity. With this aim, rats underwent training at P30-37 with or without simultaneous NGF perfusion into the left striatum. At P70, we found the expected bilateral enduring fall of striatal [3H]QNB sites in trained controls. While the non-cannulated side of NGF- treated trained rats showed a similar drop in [3H]QNB binding, the perfused striata from these animals were not affected by training. Thus, the findings add new evidence in favour of a major role of NGF in this critical period of activity-dependent permanent adjustment in the striatal muscarinic system. |
