Adult neurons of several reptiles still retain the ability of axonal regeneration in contrast to the low intrinsic regenerative capacity of those in the central nervous system (CNS) in mammals. This feature of the reptilian neurons has provided a perfect model for elucidating the regenerative mechanism lost in the mammalian counterparts. However, little information is available on the primary culture method of adult reptilian neurons, which greatly limits their valuable applications. In the present study, we introduced a simple and easy method for the isolation, culture, and identification of neurons from the cerebral cortex using the adult geckos. The cultured cells were further identified by immunofluorescence using antibodies against neuron-specific markers ß-Ⅲ-tubulin and NeuN. The cortical neurons from adult gecko displayed spindle-shaped, bipolar, or multipolar morphology with a plump soma. This primary culture method for adult reptilian neurons will be beneficial for comparative studies of neuronal biology in various vertebrates.
