Hindbrain floor plate of the rat: ultrastructural changes occurring during development.

Abstract:

:Most of the molecular and experimental studies on the floor plate (FP) have been performed on the FP region extending along the spinal cord. However, little is known about the hindbrain FP. The FP undergoes regional and temporal changes throughout development, but information with respect to the ultrastructural correlate of such changes is missing. The present investigation was focused on the ultrastructural developmental changes occurring in the FP of the rat hindbrain. The FP cells of the hindbrain secrete a material reacting with antibodies against the secretory glycoproteins of the subcommissural organ (AFRU). This antibody was used to perform an ultrastructural immunocytochemical analysis of the rat FP. From E-12 on, there is a progressive increase in the development of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), so that by E-18, it has reached a high degree of hypertrophy. A unique feature of the hindbrain FP cells is the presence of tubular formations and 140-nm vesicles that appear to originate from RER cisternae. The labelling of these two structures with AFRU and Concanavalin A strongly suggests that they are pre-Golgi compartments containing secretory material. Since these structures are present in the basal process and in the apical cell pole of the FP cells, the possibility that they release their content at these sites, is discussed. It is proposed that a secretory mechanism bypassing the Golgi apparatus (constitutive secretion?) operates in the FP cells. The presence of apoptotic cells within the FP of E-20 embryos and newborns suggests that death, and not re-differentiation, is the fate of the FP cells.
