The tissue of the central nervous system is made up of two classes of cells that may be broadly categorized as neurons and glia.
Rat Neurons-Spinal Cord originate from the neural tube during embryonic development. They have multiple types, including motor neurons with large cell bodies and long axons that project to muscles, and interneurons with diverse shapes, often having shorter, branched axons for local signal transmission within the spinal cord. Rat Neurons-Spinal Cord are crucial for motor control, receiving sensory input and generating motor output to coordinate movement. Interneurons integrate and process information, modulating the activity of motor neurons. These cells are terminally differentiated and non-proliferative in vitro. They express neuronal markers such as βIII-tubulin (Tuj1) and MAP2. To ensure the quality of these primary cells, repeated freeze-thaw cycles are not recommended due to the fragile nature of these cells. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

Rat spinal cord neurons are widely used in in vitro neuroscience research due to their physiological relevance in modeling spinal cord function and disease. Additionally, they serve as a key model for spinal cord injury (SCI) research, allowing investigation into axonal regeneration, synaptic plasticity, and neuroprotective interventions. They are also employed in neurodegenerative disease studies, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), where their vulnerability to excitotoxicity and protein aggregation can be assessed.
