Nerves estimated to contain greater than 25 dark staining axons per section but still maintaining a significant portion of live axons were rated as moderate.
To determine whether PN-1 is expressed by the olfactory system during the time of active GnRH neuronal migration, we examined its expression in the embryonic mouse where its mRNA is known to be expressed [ 39 ] . At E15, PN-1 protein is present within MAP1b immunoreactive axons of the vomeronasal nerve (the migratory path used by GnRH neurons in mammals).
In EA485, the PLM axons were often short, misdirected and had extra branches.
Our results show a majority of labelling associated with axons, confirming the reports that δ-opioid receptors mainly have a presynaptic localization in the dorsal horn of the rat spinal cord ( 12, 21, 22, 23).
Neurons with axons in the peripheral nervous system can successfully regenerate when injured [ 22 ] . This is in part due to an environment permissive for axonal growth but also due to the upregulation of regeneration-associated genes (RAGs) which increase intrinsic growth capacity [ 23 ] . Three examples of RAGs are GAP-43 and CAP-23 [ 24 ] and sprp1A [ 8 ] . We now find several other potential candidates including; α2 macroglobulin, CLP36, and VGF all of which have been described to promote neurite outgrowth or interact with the cytoskeleton in a way that may promote regeneration (see Table 4 [additional file 3] for references).
