Journal ArticleDOI

Increased serotonin2 and beta-adrenergic receptor binding in the frontal cortices of suicide victims.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that suicide completed by violent methods is associated with reduced presynaptic serotonergic activity that has generated compensatory upregulation of the postsynaptic serotonin2 receptor sites is supported and antidepressant pharmacotherapies specifically downregulate cortical beta-adrenergic and/or serotonin2 receptors in depressed subjects are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD11c/EYFP transgene illuminates a discrete network of dendritic cells within the embryonic, neonatal, adult, and injured mouse brain.

TL;DR: In adult male mice, EYFP+ bDC distribution was prominent within regions of the CNS that 1) are subject to structural plasticity and neurogenesis, 2) receive sensory and humoral input from the external environment, and 3) lack a blood–brain barrier.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid axonal transport of [3H]fucosyl glycoproteins in the goldfish optic system

TL;DR: After an intraocular injection of [3H]fucose, labeled glycoproteins are rapidly transported to the goldfish optic tectum at a rate of 70–80 mm/day at 21 °C, and synthesized later than 6 h after the injection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of temperature on axonal transport and turnover of protein in goldfish optic system.

TL;DR: From autoradiograms of the tectum it was found that the increase in radioactivity signaling the arrival of the slow component could not be detected in the synaptic endings of the optic fibers where the fast component accumulated.
