The Expression Pattern of the Cell Cycle Inhibitor p19^INK4d by Progenitor Cells of the Rat Embryonic Telencephalon and Neonatal Anterior Subventricular Zone

In this study we investigated whether the pattern of expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p19^INK4d by the unique progenitor cells of the neonatal anterior subventricular zone (SVZa) can account for their ability to divide even though they express phenotypic characteristics of differentiated neurons. p19^INK4d was chosen for analysis because it usually acts to block permanently the cell cycle at the G₁ phase. p19^INK4d immunoreactivity and the incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) by SVZa cells were compared with that of the more typical progenitor cells of the prenatal telencephalic ventricular zone. In the developing telencephalon, p19^INK4d is expressed by postmitotic cells and has a characteristic perinuclear distribution depending on the laminar position and state of differentiation of a cell. Moreover, the laminar-specific staining of the developing cerebral cortex revealed that the ventricular zone (VZ) is divided into p19^INK4d(+) and p19^INK4d() sublaminae, indicating that the VZ has a previously unrecognized level of functional organization. Furthermore, the rostral migratory stream, traversed by the SVZa-derived cells, exhibits an anterior^high-posterior^low gradient of p19^INK4d expression. On the basis of the p19^INK4d immunoreactivity and BrdU incorporation, SVZa-derived cells appear to exit and reenter the cell cycle successively. Thus, in contrast to telencephalic VZ cells, SVZa cells continue to undergo multiple rounds of division and differentiation before becoming postmitotic.

Key words: cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors; p19^INK4d; progenitor cells; proliferation; subventricular zone; ventricular zone
