L1 CAM expression in the superficial dorsal horn is derived from the dorsal root ganglion

Abstract: The cell adhesion molecule L1 is highly expressed on embryonic axons and may play a role in axonal outgrowth and fasciculation. Generally only low levels of L1 are found in adult spinal cord except for intense labeling in Lissauer's tract, in laminae I-II, and on dorsolateral funicular axons. In this study we determine the source of L1 immunoreactivity in the dorsal spinal cord, the presence of L1 expression on sprouting axons, and the effect of exercise on L1 expression. We determined the source of L1 immunor… Show more

“…3A, B). These results confirm previous studies in rats in which peptidergic afferents that largely coincide with L1-positive axons in laminae I-IIo originate primarily from the small-diameter DRG nociceptors (Chung et al, 1988;Traub et al, 1989;Runyan et al, 2005). Three months after deafferentation, substantially more CGRP immunoreactive axons are present in the superficial dorsal horn at the center of the denervated region than observed in acutely deafferented wild-type mice (Fig.…”

“…1C-H). Similar to findings in adult rats (Runyan et al, 2005), L1 expression does not completely colocalize with either the peptidergic (CGRP) or nonpeptidergic (lectin IB4) axons in mice. L1-and CGRP-positive axons are double-labeled in laminae I-IIo (Fig.…”
