Expression of cytoskeletal proteins in glial cells of dorsal root ganglia.
The localization of S-100 protein-, glial fibrillary acidic protein- and vimentin-like immunoreactivity has been studied in dorsal root ganglia of the rat using monoclonal antibodies. A positive reaction for both S-100 protein-like and vimentin-like was found in satellite and Schwann cells. In addition, some large and intermediate sized neurons also result S-100 protein-like immunoreactivity. No positive reaction for glial fibrillary acidic protein-like was observed. The authors discuss these results.
