title: Heat shock induces c-fos protein-like immunoreactivity in glial cells in adult rat brain.
abstract: Heat shocking of anesthetized rats lead to a massive increase in c-fos protein-like immunoreactivity (FOS-IR) in glial-like cells in white and gray matter regions of the brain. Neuronal FOS-IR was not detectibly altered by heat shock. This induction of FOS-IR was present 1 h, but not 10 min or 24 h, after heat shock. These results demonstrate that c-fos protein is expressed in glial cells following thermal stress.
