    Abstract:
    We investigated spatial and temporal alterations of calbindin D-28k (CB) immunoreactivity in the gerbil main olfactory bulb after transient ischemia-reperfusion. In sham-operated animals, CB-immunoreactive (IR) neurons were found in the periglomerular layer, external plexiform layer and granule cell layer. At 1-4 days after ischemic insult, the number of CB-IR neurons significantly increased. This result suggests that the increased CB may buffer the intracellular calcium at an early time point after the ischemic insult. In contrast, 10-30 days after the ischemic insult, the number of CB-IR neurons significantly decreased as compared to sham-operated animals. This result suggests that a malfunction in olfactory process may have occurred in the olfactory bulb at a later time point after the ischemic insult.
