Popis: The distribution of blood-borne immunoglobulins G (IgG) was studied in the cerebral cortex, pineal gland, spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia of normal Lewis rats using the detection of autologous anti-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) antibodies. This detection was performed by means of light and electron microscopy. This study demonstrated that, in the cerebral cortex and the spinal cord microcirculations, endothelial cells are a restrictive barrier against IgG while IgG are able to diffuse into the perivascular parenchyma of the pineal gland and spinal ganglia.
