| Research Abstract |
【Purpose】Purpose is inducing maturation of newborn neurons by transduction of PEDF and VEGF.
【Methods】We transduce PEDF and VEGF using retrovirus vector to epilepsy mice. We observe the maturation of newborn neurons by immuno-histology and patch-clamp technique.
【Observation results】Many newborn neurons were immature that were characterized as follows ; negative for NeuN, high input resistance and -55 mV to -70 mV of resting membrane potentials. Transduction of PEDF and VEGF did not induce the maturation of newborn neurons.
