- Abstract
The RNA content of single nerve cell bodies from the anterior horn of rat spinal cord shows no increase during the 12 weeks of feeding of IDPN (β,β-iminodipropionitrile), but a slight decrease is noted during the last four weeks. The RNA concentration in the axonal balloons is only 0.23% as compared to 5.3% in the nerve cell body. The A/U ratio of RNA in the axonal balloons is 0.61 as compared to 0.90 in cell bodies of normal nerve cells. The A/U ratio of RNA in cell bodies of rats fed IDPN is also reduced to 0.68 (6-8 weeks) while the A/U for rats fed IDPN for 1-12 weeks is 0.77.
