Abstract:
:The present study has shown that after intravenous injection of [125I]NGF the time-course of appearance of radioactivity in all organs studied with the exception of sympathetic and sensory ganglia, roughly paralleled that of the blood. The highest levels were reached immediately after injection, after which the radioactivity decayed rapidly within the firsh hour. By contrast, in the superior cervical ganglion there was a small but significant increase within the first hour. After this the radioactivity remained constant for about 4 h and then increased dramatically (7-fold) when the radioactivity in other tissues had declined to very low levels. Measuring the proportion of radioactivity in the plasma which represents immunologically active NGF, we found that within 30 min after injection all the radioactivity represented unchanged [125I]NGF. After this time the proportion of immunologically active NGF decreased gradually and reached a final level of about 10-15%. Evidence that the radioactivity accumulated in the superior cervical ganglion by retrograde axonal transport represents unchanged [125I]NGF was provided by gel electrophoresis. The results are interpreted as follows: the initial small increase in the sympathetic ganglia may result either from [125I]NGF taken up by short collateral fibres within the ganglion or from a direct accumulation of blood-borne [125I]NGF by the cell bodies of the adrenergic neurones. The dramatic increase occurring after 4 h is caused by the moiety of [125I]NGF reaching the cell body by retrograde axonal transport. This interpretation is supported by autoradiographic studies which showed that 1 h after [125I]NGF injection there was only very sparse labelling of the ganglion, whereas 24 h later virtually all the cell bodies were heavily labelled. Moreover, it could be shown that the lag period between intravenous injection and subsequent accumulation of [125I]NGF in the adrenergic cell bodies was considerably shorter after transection of the postganglionic fibres distal to the cell body [the transected fibres were allowed to regenerate for 7 days] resulting in a reduction of the distance between the site of uptake and accumulation.
