The neonatal neurotoxicity of monosodium L-glutamate on the sexually dimorphic nucleus of the preoptic area in rats.

Abstract:

:The neurotoxic effect of monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) on the morphologies in the darkly stained sexually dimorphic nucleus of the preoptic area (SDN-POA) and the lighter-staining surrounding area (non-SDN-POA) within the medial preoptic nucleus (MPN) was evaluated. Male and female Long-Evans rats were used. MSG (4 mg/g of body weight) was administered subcutaneously to pups on days 1 and 3 postnatally. Normal saline was used as the vehicle. At the age of 6 months, the rats were sacrificed and the brain tissues were fixed for histological examination. The morphological changes, i.e., total volume, density, total neuron number, neuronal nuclear volume (NNV) and ratio of pyknosis, of the SDN-POA and non-SDN-POA within the MPN, were estimated using the AMS VIDS III semiautomatic image-analytic system. The results indicate that neonatal MSG treatment caused significant neuronal loss and decreases in total volume of the SDN-POA and non-SDN-POA of male and female rats. However, only the SDN-POA of MSG-treated male rats showed a significant increase of pyknosis and decrease of neuronal density. A significant enlargement of NNV in the SDN-POA and non-SDN-POA was observed in the MSG-treated male rats. These results indicate that the MPN shows sex-specific and area-specific changes after neonatal neurotoxicity due to MSG.
