Abstract:
:We compared changes in levels of substance P-like immunoreactivity (SPLI) in L4-6 dorsal root ganglia (DRG), L4-6 dorsal roots, sciatic nerve, tibial nerve and hind foot skin in rats following resection or crush injury of the sciatic nerve. The initial depletion of SPLI, which occurred in all areas sampled, was similar after either type of lesion. In DRG and dorsal roots, recovery to control values occurred in SPLI levels 35-45 days after sciatic crush, but not after resection. In sciatic nerve proximal to the injury, a partial recovery in SPLI content to about 60% of control occurred following crush injury, but not following resection. Distal to the injury, tibial nerve levels recovered rapidly following crush injury, consistent with the previously observed rapid regeneration of SPLI-containing axons. After resection, no recovery was observed until after 35 days, when it appeared that some axons succeeded in crossing the resection zone and regaining the distal nerve stump. Delayed and poor recovery of SPLI levels was observed in foot skin, even after crush injury. This correlated with the poor recovery of the plasma extravasation reaction, a functional index of SP-innervation of skin. In contrast, reinnervation by high-threshold mechanoreceptors was more rapid and complete, in agreement with a previous study. We conclude that although SPLI-containing axons regenerate rapidly, they appear to reinnervate skin less successfully than other afferents. Axon regeneration is associated with a recovery of SPLI levels which fell after axotomy: no recovery occurs if regeneration is prevented. Recovery was almost complete in DRG and roots, but incomplete in sciatic nerve. This peptide transmitter in afferent neurons thus behaves in a similar fashion to previously studied low-molecular weight transmitters and related materials in efferent neurons. Since recovery of SPLI levels begins before there is evidence for target reinnervation, it seems that axon regeneration is a sufficient condition for reversal of some axotomy-induced changes in these neurons. Further studies on substance P synthesis and on the response of individual DRG neurons to axotomy and regeneration will be required to explain fully the discrepancy between partial recovery of SPLI levels in sciatic nerve and full recovery in DRG and dorsal roots.
