Lymphocytes are present within ethidium-bromide (EB)-demyelinated lesions in the central nervous system (CNS) and the possibility of its participation in accidental immune-mediated responses to the detached myelin sheaths can not be ruled out. This study aimed to investigate the consequences of immunosuppression with dexamethasone in CNS repair after local EB injection. Adult Wistar rats received 10 microlitres of 0.1% EB solution into the cisterna pontis. Some were treated intraperitoneally with dexamethasone (3 mg/kg/day, group I, n=15) during the experimental period; others were not immunosuppressed (group II, n=15). Animals from both groups were perfused with 4% glutharaldehyde at 7,11,15,21 and 31 days following EB injection. Brainstem slices were collected and processed for transmission electron microscopy studies. Rats from group I showed greater amounts of myelin-derived membranes than non-immunosuppressed rats (group II), suggesting a delay in the macrophagic activity of removing myelin debris. Rare lymphocytes were found. Oligodendrocyte remyelinating activity also showed a delayed pattern, with clear predominance of naked axons.
