Proliferation of astroglia in the embryonic mouse forebrain as revealed by simultaneous immunocytochemistry and autoradiography.
Proliferating glial precursors of the embryonic mouse forebrain were labelled with [3H] thymidine autoradiography and immunostained in the same preparation by using antibodies raised against astroglia-specific protein (GFAP). Results indicate that mature fibrous forms of astroglia are capable of proliferation.
