Spinal cords sampled at days 1 4 and 9 post-irradiation PI w 5 per each time point were analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Western blot analysis showed that the expression of caveolin-1 was significantly increased at day 1 PI p and returned to the level of normal control rats on days 4 and 9 PI. Immunohistochemistry showed that caveolin-1 immunoreactivity was enhanced in some glial cells vascular endothelial cells and neurons in the spinal cords. The increased expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein GFAP a marker for an astroglial reaction was consistent with that of caveolin-1. In addition caveolin-1 was co-localized in hypertrophied GFAP-positive astrocytes. Taking all these facts into consideration we postulate that irradiation induces the increased expression of caveolin-1 in cells of the central nervous system and that its increased expression in astrocytes may contribute to hypertrophy of astrocytes in the spinal cord after irradiation. The precise role of caveolin-1 in the spinal cords should be studied further. Key words astrocyte caveolin-1 neurons radiation spinal cord Introduction Radiation has been widely used
