PG - 16-27 AB - The present study compares the temporal-spatial expression and tissue localization of the rat epidermal type fatty acid binding protein (E-FABP) (DA11/C-FABP/S-FABP/LEBP/KLBP) in the developing rat central nervous system (CNS). In situ hybridization (ISH) and immunocytochemistry (ICC) studies demonstrate that mRNA E-FABP and protein are expressed at high levels during neurogenesis, neuronal migration, and terminal differentiation. Migrating pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex, Purkinje cells and deep nuclear neurons in the cerebellum, and neurons in the olfactory bulb and retina exhibited a strong E-FABP-like immunoreactivity (E-FABP-LI) throughout the entire process of differentiation and migration. The levels of E-FABP mRNA and protein were dramatically higher in prenatal and early postnatal neurons, as compared to adult neurons. The E-FABP antibody immunoreacted with growing neurites, and nuclear and cytoplasmic regions of neurons. The intracellular multiregional pattern of localization of E-FABP and its differential temporal expression during development, are consistent with its proposed role in transporting long chain free fatty acids and/or other hydrophobic ligands during neuronal differentiation and axon growth.
