Journal ArticleDOI
Grafted neural stem cells develop into functional pyramidal neurons and integrate into host cortical circuitry
TL;DR: Patch-clamp techniques provide evidence that grafted neural progenitors can differentiate into morphologically mature pyramidal projection neurons, establish appropriate long-distance axonal projections, exhibit normal electrophysiological properties, and become functionally integrated into host cortical circuitry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-species neural grafting in a rat model of Parkinson's disease
TL;DR: Long-lasting functional cross-species transplantation of mesencephalic DA neurones, taken from mouse embryos, to the dopaminergically denervated neostriatum of adult recipient rats is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Lesioning of the Basal Forebrain Cholinergic System by Intraventricular 192 IgG–saporin: Behavioural, Biochemical and Stereological Studies in the Rat
TL;DR: The results confirm the usefulness of the 192 IgG‐saporin toxin for selective and profound lesions of the basal forebrain cholinergic neurons and provide further support for a role of theBasal forebrain Cholinergic system in cognitive functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
NURR1 in Parkinson disease--from pathogenesis to therapeutic potential.
TL;DR: Clinical and experimental data indicate that disrupted NURR1 function contributes to induction of DA neuron dysfunction, which is seen in early stages of PD, which makes this protein a potentially interesting target for therapeutic intervention.

Brother Correlations in Earnings in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden Compared to the United States
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare sibling correlations in long-run (permanent) earnings between the United States and the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden) and conclude that the family and community factors are more important determinants of long run earnings in the U.S. than in Nordic countries.
