Effect of exogenous thyroxine on the development of the Purkinje cell in fetal alcohol effects in the rat.

Abstract:

:The amelioration of fetal alcohol effects on the postnatal development of the Purkinje cell by exogenous L-thyroxine was investigated in the neonatal rat. Time-pregnant rats were divided into three groups. Group A (n = 6) received 35% liquid ethanol diet; Group B (n = 6) was fed a liquid diet in which maltose dextrins replaced alcohol isocalorically, constituting the pair-fed group; Group C (n = 6) received the 35% liquid ethanol diet and, in addition, received exogenous thyroxine (5 microg/kg/day) subcutaneously. After the pups were born, the mothers were removed and the pups of each were surrogate fostered by dams who were fed normal rat chow and water ad libitum. An average of six pups, one from each litter, were killed at days 7, 14, 21, and 28 for each of the above three groups. Light and electron microscopic observations of lobule II/III revealed a delayed alignment of Purkinje cells (Pc) in alcohol-exposed pups compared to pair-fed pups. The Pc of the pair-fed group showed a single-layer arrangement at 7 days which was seen only at day 14 in the alcohol group. However, in the alcohol + T(4)-exposed pups a single-layer arrangement was quite often seen at 7 days. Morphological observations showed impaired evidence of protein synthesis at all time sequences in the pups of Group A compared to Group B. A most interesting finding was the morphological evidence of greater protein synthesis in the Pc of the alcohol + T(4) group at all times as indicated by a hypertrophied nucleus, abundant ribosomal collection, and numerous Nissl bodies.
