title: [Migration and differentiation of neurons producing gonadotropin-releasing hormone under conditions of serotonin excess in the brain of mouse embryos].
abstract: The work has been carried out on mice of the Tg8 line with knockout of gene of monoamineoxidase A with an increase of serotonin and noradrenaline content in the brain, and on mice of the C3H line with unchanged genome and normal concentration of monoamines. An immunocytochemical study has been performed of development of neurons producing gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) under conditions of excess of serotonin and noradrenaline in the mice in embryogenesis. The GnRH-neurons were revealed at the 18th day of embryonic development in telencephalon along trajectory of their migration from olfactory bulbs to the retrochiasmatic area. In telencephalon of mouse embryos of the Tg8 line, a redistribution of the GnRH-neurons along their migration trajectory was observed as compared with embryos of the C3H line mice. The percent of the GnRH-neurons in the Tg8 mouse embryos in caudal parts of the migration trajectory was lower than in rostral parts, the opposite distribution of the neurons being observed in the C3H line mouse embryos; at the excess of serotonin and noradrenaline in the Tg8 line mouse embryos, the total amount of GnRH-neurons in the brain was lower than in the C3H mice. In males of the Tg8 line mice under conditions of excess of serotonin and noradrenaline the optical density of neurons, which correlated with the GnRH concentration in the cell, was higher than in control mice. Thus, in the Tg8 mice under conditions of the serotonin and noradrenaline excess, migration of the GnRH-neurons to their final anlage in hypothalamus is accelerated as well as the total number of the GnRH-neurons decreases, which indicates a decrease of proliferation of cells-precursors and the earlier differentiation of neurons.
