Journal ArticleDOI

Components of fast and slow axonal transport in the goldfish optic nerve

TL;DR: The results indicate that the fast and slow components of axonal transport each provide specific chemical substances to the nerve endings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of choline acetyltransferase by vasoactive intestinal peptide.

TL;DR: Kinetic analysis indicates that the Vmax of the enzyme is increased and the Km for choline, but not acetyl‐coenzyme A, is decreased in the presence of VIP, support a possible VIP‐cholinergic interaction in the CNS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytoplasmic and nuclear estradiol-17β binding in male and female rat brain: Regional distribution, temporal aspects and metabolism

TL;DR: The present demonstration of E2 binding in various regions of the male brain is consistent with a physiological role of estrogen in the male; however, the similarities in these E2binding parameters between the sexes unfortunately shed little light on the marked neuroendocrine sex differences which have been documented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of 3H corticosterone-1,2 with macromolecules extracted from brain cell nuclei.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that hormone within brain cell nuclei is bound to a macromolecular component, probably protein, which can be extracted from isolated nuclei by 0.4 M NaCl.
Journal Article

Neuron somal size is decreased in the lateral amygdalar nucleus of subjects with bipolar disorder

TL;DR: Significant decreased neuron somal size in the lateral amygdalar nucleus and the accessory basal parvocellular nucleus in subjects with BD is reported, relative to control subjects.
