Transferrin receptors in injured brain

摘要: Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of transferrin receptors (Tf-R) in central nervous system. The present study Wistar rats with experimentally induced brain injuries, using immunohistochemistry at light microscopy level, Tf-R regenerated endothelial cells, reactive astrocytes and other probably macrophages. Although were seen proliferating also observed nonproliferating many them perhaps bind edema fluid play an important role lesion repair.
