  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

The external germinal cell at the external granu-lar layer in the developing cerebellum proliferates intensely during two weeks after birth. Experi-mental inhibition of DNA-synthesis of the cell, therefore, should inhibit the proliferation of ger-minal cells, thus causing cerebellar hypoplasia. The present investigation aimed at determining the effect of an inhibitor of DNA-synthesis, cytosine arabinoside (ara-C), on the external granular layer.

Three-day-old mice were injected subcutaneously with 30 mg/kg body weight of ara-C, and were killed at one hour interval after injection. Then, the external granular layers were examined by light and electron microscope. The results were as follows.

1) Up to 3 hours after injection, degenerative cells are not observed. Degenerative cells became apparent at the external granular layer at 4 hours after injection. After 4 hours, picnotic cells in-creased rapidly to become maximum at 6-9 hours after treatment. After 9 hours, picnotic cells gradu-ally decreased to disappear after 16 hours.

2) Pathological changes in the external germinal cells after ara-C treatment, were first noted as the chromatin condensation around nuclear envelope, which finally became whole nuclear condensation. A few hours later the first sign of nuclear change, various inclusion bodies appeared in the cytoplasm. These inclusion bodies were subsequently released outside the cell body.

3) Cell debris were phagocyted by two different types of cells. These cells had close similarity with the germinal cell and macrophage in many respects.
