The nucleus ambiguus (NAmb) is a column of neurons, in the medulla oblongata, involved in bulbar functions. Expression of GDNF and its receptors (GDNFR) are observed within the cell bodies during reinnervation following recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury. Little is known regarding GDNFR expression in the formation of the NAmb and the laryngeal innervation during embryogenesis. Understanding the timing and pattern of GDNFR expression in embryogenesis versus after RLN injury may provide insights into therapeutic targets for regeneration after RLN injury. Laboratory experiment. Rat brainstems at E14.5/E16.5/E18.5/E20.5/adult were stained for GDNFR: GFRα-1/GFRα-2/GFRα-3/Ret. Islet1 and ChAT were used as cell bodies markers. Sections were observed using fluorescent microscopy and quantified through manual cell counting. Expression of GFRα-1, GFRα-3, and Ret was identified within the NAmb, hypoglossal and facial nuclei of the adult medulla. During development, GFRα-1 immunoreactivity was seen at E20.5. GFRα-2 expression was not observed at any timepoint. GFRα-3 expression began at E16.5. Ret expression within nerve fibers in the NAmb were observed beginning at E14.5, but never in the cell bodies. Embryonic GDNFR expression in the NAmb differs from that of the adult after RLN injury. The developing brainstem experienced upregulation at discrete timepoints with signaling sustained through adulthood. In contrast, adult RLN transected rats experienced patterns of up and down regulation. GFRα-1 may contribute to muscle targeting and NMJ maturation, GFRα-3 may contribute to both, as well as axon guidance. It is likely that GDNF is functioning via a Ret-independent pathway. GDNF participates in muscle innervation when its receptors are expressed in neurons. GNDF Receptors expression are different during innervation of the larynx in embryos versus reinnervation in adults after nerve injury. It may be a therapeutic option for vocal fold paralysis.
