| Research Abstract |
The embryonic carcinoma P19 cells are a well established cell line commonly used as an in vitro neuronal differentiation model. I analyzed expression pattern of fatty acids beta-oxidation enzymes using this cell line through the process of neuronal differentiation. Immunocytochemical and real time PCR experiments showed that almost all fatty acids beta-oxidation enzymes are expressed in the neural precursor cells and neurons. In addition, expression levels of these enzymes were increased through the process of neuronal differentiation.
