Journal ArticleDOI
Transmitter release from transplants of fetal ventral mesencephalon or locus coeruleus in the rat frontal cortex and nucleus accumbens: effects of pharmacological and behaviorally activating stimuli
TL;DR: Changes in extracellular DA and NA levels measured during administration of pharmacological agents which augment or depress catecholamine release in the intact brain and during exposure of the rats to stressful manipulations indicated that graft-derived DA or NA release had normal neuronal properties, and was dependent on an intact axonal impulse flow.
Journal Article
Neuronal replacement by intracerebral neural implants in animal models of neurodegenerative disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrastriatal implants of mesencephalic cell suspensions in weaver mutant mice: ultrastructural relationships of dopaminergic dendrites and axons issued from the graft.

TL;DR: It is shown that mesencephalic cell suspensions survive in the weaver striatum and provide a functional dopamine innervation which comprises both axonal and dendritic processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extensive reinnervation of the hippocampus by embryonic basal forebrain cholinergic neurons grafted into the septum of neonatal rats with selective cholinergic lesions.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the graft‐host interactions that are necessary for target‐directed axon growth are present in the septohippocampal system during early postnatal maturation, and may contribute to overcome the functional limitations inherent in the use of ectopically placed intrahipp hippocampal transplants.
Journal ArticleDOI
The arrangement of neurosecretory and catecholamine fibres in relation to the pituitary intermedia cells of the skate, Raja radiata
TL;DR: It is possible, judging solely from structural relations, that both the cell body and the cell apex (the release pole) receive a dual innervation.
