The effect of aspirin on Gomori-positive glia in mouse brain

Folia Biol (Krakow). 2008;56(1-2):73-5. doi: 10.3409/fb56_1-2.73-75.

Abstract

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA) treatment resulted in a significant decrease in the amount of the sulfur-rich Gomori-positive material present in the cytoplasm of periventricular glia. It also caused the accumulation of the Gomori-positive neurosecretory material in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei and, most pronounced, in the neurosecretory axons of the paraventricular- and supraoptic-neurophypophysial tract.
