Abstract

Immunohistochemical expression of carbonic anhydrase isoenzyme II (CAII) was demonstrated in a population of fibrous astrocytes in a young lamb and an adult sheep. Such cells were identified by co-expression of CAII and glial fibrillary acidic protein, nuclear morphology and their contribution of glial fibrillary acidic protein reactive processes to the glial limitans. Similar cells were not identified in neonatal lambs. As in man and mouse, CAII was also expressed in choroid plexus epithelium occurring in neonate, young and adult sheep brain. In contrast, however, to man and mouse, CAII was not expressed in sheep oligodendrocytes.
