| The neuroprotective effect of dexamethasone on the irradiated postnatal developing cerebellum of Wistar rat was studied. Seventy-five (day 1 old) neonates were separated into three groups; control group receiving no drug and no irradiation, irradiated group, and irradiated and dexamethasone group in which the dexamethasone was administered one hour before exposure to 5Gray (5Gy) of gamma rays. On complete exposure to the various interventions, the cerebellar tissues of animals from each group on days 5, 9, 14, 21 and 25 were processed for histological and histomorphometric studies. The result of the study showed that irradiation alone significantly reduced the thickness of the external granular layer (EGL) on day 5 and 14 at P<0.05, molecular layer (ML)... |

| The objective of the study was to determine the best fixative for tissue sections, which were to be stained with the dye extracts oí Morinda lucida, a stain for collagen fibres and muscle fibres. The effects of 10% formalin saline, Carnoy's fluid, Zenker's fluid, Helly's fluid and Bouin's fluid on the staining ability of the dye extracted from Morinda lucida on tissue sections were studied. Human tissues were fixed in the afore mentioned fixatives and the sections stained with acidified alcoholic solution of Morinda lucida extract. No visible difference in the staining reactions was observed when the stained slides from the different fixatives were compared. The colour, staining time and staining intensity were the same in all the sections studied |
