Abstract

We studied the distribution of 12-lipoxygenase mRNA in glial cells. First, mRNA was detected from cellular extracts by soluble-phase reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Taking into account that cell culture populations could not be 100% homogeneous, we then developed, for the first time, an in situ RT-PCR combined with immunocytochemistry with cell specific markers. Using this procedure we showed that 12-lipoxygenase mRNA was expressed both in mature oligodendrocytes and astrocytes.
