Journal ArticleDOI
Dopaminergic transplants normalize amphetamine- and apomorphine-induced Fos expression in the 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned striatum.
TL;DR: Findings indicate that fetal ventral mesencephalic transplants normalize dopamine receptor-mediated function in the 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned caudate-putamen and nucleus accumbens, as well as in a primary target of the striatal output neurons, the globus pallidus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monoamine-containing fibres in the pituitary neuro-intermediate lobe of the pig and rat.
TL;DR: A combination of fluorescence microscopy and aldehyde-fuchsin staining on the same sections demonstrated that the majority at least of these monoamine-containing structures were not identical with alde enzyme positive neurosecretory fibres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of intrastriatal striatal grafts and their afferent innervation from the host.
TL;DR: Grafts implanted into dopamine-denervated hosts showed a normal morphological maturation of both DARPP-32-positive and -negative areas, although no tyrosine hydroxylase-positive innervation appeared within the grafts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dopaminergic microtransplants into the substantia nigra of neonatal rats with bilateral 6-OHDA lesions. I. Evidence for anatomical reconstruction of the nigrostriatal pathway.
TL;DR: A novel approach by which fetal VM grafts are implanted unilaterally into the substantia nigra of 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned neonatal pups at postnatal day 3 (P3) using a microtransplantation technique indicates that the graft-derived dopaminergic reinnervation of the striatum is functional.
