TL;DR: It is concluded that functional recovery in the partial lesion model depends not only on preservation of the nigral cell bodies, but more critically on the ability of GDNF to promote significant reinnervation of the denervated striatum.

TL;DR: Subcortical afferents to transplants of fetal striatal tissue, implanted into the excitotoxically lesioned striatum of adult recipient rats, were studied with retrograde and anterograde axonal tracers and immunohistochemistry to provide evidence that the intrastriatal grafts receive afferentS from the host substantia nigra, thalamus, amygdala and dorsal raphe nucleus, but with different distributions.

TL;DR: In this article, three strands of literature on socio-economic intergenerational mobility are reviewed and compared with two classical sociological approaches that measure the mobility in class and status, and the United States seems to rank quite high in terms of social mobility, but low in the terms of earnings and income mobility.

TL;DR: The results indicate the CyA is effective in promoting survival of intracerebral xenografts of fetal neural tissue, but that cessation of immunosuppressive treatment in most cases results in rejection of the grafted tissue.

TL;DR: Host afferents into fetal ventral mesencephalic tissue grafted to the neostriatum of adult rats have been studied by using anterograde transport of Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin (PHA-L) and immunocytochemistry for serotonin, Substance P, and dopamine-adenosine 3'-monophosphate-regulated-phosphoprotein-32 (DARPP-32).
