Tóm tắt

The dorsal root ganglion (DRG) is consisted of neurons that relay multiple types of spinal sensory stimuli to the central nervous system. Several neuroactive molecules may be involved in sensory modulation especially pain processing at the DRG, including the purinergic receptor P2X3 and calcitonin-gene-related peptide (CGRP). P2X3 receptor has been considered a promising pharmaceutical target for the development of new pain medicine. Currently, litter is known about the expression of P2X3 in the human DRG. The present study characterized the localization of P2X3 in prenatal human DRG obtained from fetuses at 4–8 gestational months, by comparing to CGRP expression as well as binding pattern of isolectin-B4 (IB4), a marker of small DRG neurons presumably relevant to nociception. P2X3 immunoreactivity (IR) appeared in most neuron-like perikarya, with their numerical density reduced during the gestational period studied. P2X3 IR was co-labeled very commonly with IB4 binding and infrequently with CGRP IR and was not colocalized with IR for the gliocyte marker glutamine synthetase. Together, the data show an early and broad expression of P2X3 in prenatal human DRG neurons, pointing to a biological role of purinergic signaling during the development of spinal sensory system.
