Transient vimentin expression during the embryonic development of the chicken cerebellum
2018, International Journal of Developmental NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :A polyclonal anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was obtained from Sigma (Deisenhofen, Germany). GFAP is an intermediate filament protein of 52 kD, found in astrocytes and radial glia, and some types of ependyma cells in most vertebrates (Levitt and Rakic, 1980; Bovolenta et al., 1984; Roeling and Feirabend, 1988; Kalman et al., 1998; Eng et al., 2000; Arochena et al., 2004; Middeldorp and Hol, 2011). A polyclonal anti-TUC-4, is known to label early post-mitotic neurons, anti brain lipid binding protein (BLBP) antibody (both obtained from Millipore), is known to be expressed in radial glia (Anthony et al., 2004).
Radial glia in the cerebellum of adult teleost fish: Implications for the guidance of migrating new neurons
2012, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :In contrast to human and non-human primates, in rodents the radial glial cells lack GFAP immunoreactivity during earlier stages, and express vimentin instead. In the course of their further development, vimentin immunoreactivity decreases, while GFAP becomes the major intermediate filament protein (Bignami and Dahl, 1974a,b; Dahl, 1981; Pixley and de Vellis, 1984; Bovolenta et al., 1984; Rickmann et al., 1987; Mission et al., 1988a,b; Voigt, 1989; for review see Cameron and Rakic, 1991). This differentiation of the radial glial cells coincides with increased migratory activity of the young neurons.
GFAP in health and disease
2011, Progress in NeurobiologyInfluence of thyroid hormones on maturation of rat cerebellar astrocytes
2007, International Journal of Developmental NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :To assess the role of thyroid hormones during normal astrocyte maturation in vivo, we compared the maturational patterns of astrocytes from normal and hypothyroid rats during the postnatal period in the cerebellum. Maturing astrocytes sequentially express the intermediate filaments nestin, vimentin, and GFAP (Bovolenta et al., 1984; Kalman and Ajtai, 2001). Nestin is an intermediate filament expressed in immature precursor cells which may give rise to either neurons or glial cells.
