Sıçan Nukleus Olivaris İnferiorundaki Toplam Nöron Sayısının Fiziksel Disektör Yaklaşımlarıyla Belirlenmesi

Year 2021, Volume: 8 Issue: 2, 12 - 17, 31.08.2021

Abstract

Amaç: Nukleus olivaris inferior, medulla oblongata ön yüzeyinde oliva denilen kabartıları oluşturan, beyin sapındaki en büyük ve karakteristik şekli olan bir çift nukleustur Sıçan Nukleus olivaris inferiorundaki (NOİ) toplam nöron sayısının, sayı hesaplamasında altın standart olarak kabul edilen fiziksel disektör olarak tanımlanan stereolojik yöntem ile belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntemler: Eşit sayıda dişi ve erkek olmak üzere toplam 10 adet Wistar sıçan beyin saplarına, rutin parafin doku takibi uygulandı. Nöronlar, NOİ hacminin bilinen bir fraksiyonunda (kesit ve alan fraksiyonları) sistematik olarak örneklenmiş fiziksel ayırıcılarla sayıldı. Her bir NOİ'deki toplam nöron sayısı, sayılan nöronların kullanılan fraksiyonların tersi ile çarpılmasıyla hesaplandı. Verilerin analizinde Student’s t-testi kullanıldı. Grup varyanslarının homojenliği Levene’s test ile kontrol edildi. Hesaplamalarda ve yorumlamalarda istatistiksel anlamlılık düzeyi %5 olarak alındı.
Bulgular Dişi ve erkek sıçanların sağ NOİ'lerindeki toplam nöron sayısı sırasıyla 37014 ve 38707, sol NOİ'lerindeki toplam nöron sayısı 37014 ve 39614 olarak hesaplandı. Ne cinsiyetler arasında ne de sağ ve sol kısımlar arasında önemli bir farklılık gözlenmemiştir.
Sonuç: Bu sonuçlar, sol ve sağ nukleuslar arasında herhangi bir fark olmadığı konusunda daha önce yapılan çalışma sonuçlarını doğrulamaktadır. Ancak literatürde bildirilen 17000 ile 30000 arasında değişen rakamlarla çelişmektedir. Yazının sonunda bu parametre ile ilgili tutarsızlıklara yol açabilecek olası nedenler tartışıldı
