Title: Localization of 5-oxo-L-prolinase mRNA in the murine choroid plexus by in situ hybridization. Author: Jäger M, Wolf S. Journal: Neurosci Lett; 1999 Oct 29; 274(3):171-4. PubMed ID: 10548417. Abstract: The gamma-glutamyl cycle is thought to play a significant role in the transport of amino acids between the blood and the cerebrospinal fluid. In the present study we investigated the expression of 5-oxo-L-prolinase, an enzyme of this pathway, in mouse brain and kidney by in situ hybridization using digoxygenin-labeled RNA probes. Expression of 5-OPase mRNA was found in epithelial cells of the proximal tubules in kidney as well as in the epithelium and vascular endothelial cells of the choroid plexus but not in periventricular capillaries.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
