Striatal c-fos Induction by Cocaine or Apomorphine Occurs Preferentially in Output Neurons Projecting to the Substantia Nigra in the Rat

TL;DR: The present findings are consistent with the idea that striatal c‐fos induction by dopaminergic agents is primarily mediated by an interaction with D1 ‐receptors, which are thought to be selectively localized on neurons projecting to SN.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unemployment and mental health: evidence from research in the Nordic countries

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effects of unemployment on mental health in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden, using cross-sectional, longitudinal, and time-series data, and discussed studies that investigated the duration-dependence issue in exit rates out of unemployment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restoration of rhythmic slow activity (θ) in the subcortically denervated hippocampus by fetal CNS transplants

TL;DR: It is suggested that at least a proportion of the RSA 'pacemaker' cells of the host septum survives the transection of the fimbria-fornix fibers and that a graft of fetal septal or hippocampal tissue implanted into the lesion cavity may be capable of relaying this pacemaker activity to the host hippocampus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reinnervation of the denervated adult spinal cord of rats by intraspinal transplants of embryonic brain stem neurons

TL;DR: The results indicate that direct contact with the vessel-rich pia is essential for good survival of the grafts, and large numbers of catecholamine (CA)-containing and non-monoaminergic cells were present in the transplants after 3–6 months.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term functional recovery from age-induced spatial memory impairments by nerve growth factor gene transfer to the rat basal forebrain

TL;DR: It is concluded that the gene transfer procedure used here is efficient to provide the brain with a long-lasting local supply of exogenous NGF, induces long-term functional recovery of cognitive functions, and that independent trophic stimulation of the medial septum or nucleus basalis magnocellularis has similar consequences at the behavioral level.
