Abstract:
:Spinal axons in the larval sea lamprey regenerate following a complete spinal transection. It is not known whether regenerating growth cones require contact with cellular elements or whether the basement membrane and collagenous meninx primitiva which surround the spinal cord are sufficient for neurite out-growth. To determine this, a freeze lesion was made which severed axons, destroyed neuronal perikarya, and greatly reduced the number of glial cells. After at least 10 weeks of recovery, 50 neurites from 31 Müller and Mauthner axons were labeled by intracellular injection of HRP. Eighty-six percent of these neurites did not regenerate into the lesion site. No neurites grew through the lesion. No animals recovered coordinated swimming. These results suggest that glial and/or neuronal surfaces are required for axonal regeneration. Moreover, a monolayer of glial cells appears to be suboptimal and a three-dimensional matrix of cells may be necessary to promote regeneration in the lamprey spinal cord.
