Journal ArticleDOI
The organization of tubero-hypophyseal and reticulo-infundibular catecholamine neuron systems in the rat brain.
Anders Björklund,Anders Björklund,Robert Y. Moore,Robert Y. Moore,Anders Nobin,Anders Nobin,Ulf Stenevi,Ulf Stenevi +7 more
TL;DR: The topography of the median eminence-pituitary catecholamine innervation has been studied with respect to the origin, course and termination of its different components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transplantation of central and peripheral monoamine neurons to the adult rat brain: Techniques and conditions for survival
TL;DR: While the majority of the monoamine-containing neurons in the transplants died within the first month after transplantation, a significant number of neurons survived for at least half a year in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning Deficit in BDNF Mutant Mice
TL;DR: Data suggest that BDNF expression may be linked to learning, and a pronounced effect of age on BDNF mRNA expression was seen, displayed as both a reduced level of mRNA expression and a reduced or entirely absent layer‐specific expression pattern in the cerebral cortex of aged animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide in the rat and mouse brain
I. Lorén,Piers C. Emson,Jan Fahrenkrug,Anders Björklund,Jan Alumets,Rolf Håkanson,Frank Sundler +6 more
TL;DR: The characteristic telencephalic distribution of the neurones that contain VIP suggests a role for this peptide in cortical and limbic functions and some VIP-containing neurones probably also form long projections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dyskinesias following neural transplantation in Parkinson's disease
Peter Hagell,Paola Piccini,Anders Björklund,Patrik Brundin,Stig Rehncrona,Håkan Widner,Lesley Crabb,Nicola Pavese,Wolfgang H. Oertel,Niall Quinn,David J. Brooks,Olle Lindvall +11 more
TL;DR: Dyskinesia severity was not related to the magnitude of graft-derived dopaminergic re-innervation, as judged by 18F-labeled 6-L-fluorodopa (FD) positron emission tomography (PET), indicating that off-phase dyskinesias probably did not result from excessive growth of grafted dopamine neurons.
