title: The proliferative response of astrocytes to injury in neonatal rat brain. A combined immunocytochemical and autoradiographic study.
abstract: Astrocyte response to unilateral injury of the cerebral hemisphere in newborn rats was studied both autoradiographically and immunocytochemically. Within the lesion area zones of increased number of labelled astrocytes were delimited. They were considered as evidence of reactive astrocyte proliferation in the rat brain injured at birth.
