X Abstract

DNA fragmentation was induced in the trigeminal ganglion of newborn rats by subcutaneous capsaicin injection (50 mg/kg). Twenty-four hours later, numerous roundish profiles were intensely labeled by both a DNA polymerase I-mediated nick translation method and a terminal transferase-mediated tailing method. Direct electron microscopic examination of labeled profiles indicated that the labeled profiles were neurons at earlier stages of apoptosis. DNA fragmentation signal was first detected in the nucleoplasm and later spread to the cytoplasm. The cell finally disintegrated forming many small apoptotic bodies. DNA fragmentation signal in the apoptotic bodies was readily labeled by the tailing but not the translation method.
