Journal ArticleDOI
Activity-Dependent Energy Metabolism in Rat Posterior Pituitary Primarily Reflects Sodium Pump Activity
Marina Mata,David J. Fink,Harold Gainer,Carolyn Beebe Smith,Leslie Davidsen,Helen E. Savaki,William J. Schwartz,Louis Sokoloff +7 more
TL;DR: This report provides evidence that the increase in glucose utilization evoked by functional activation in neural tissue is due to the opening of Na+ channels and activation of Na+, K+ -ATPase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Retrograde axonal transport of endogenous proteins in sciatic nerve demonstrated by covalent labeling in vivo
David J. Fink,Harold Gainer +1 more
TL;DR: Extracellularly applied N-succinimidyl [2,3-3H]propionate was used in vivo to covalently label intra-axonal proteins in the rat sciatic nerve, allowing a unique view of axonal transport of proteins independent of biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Axonal transport of proteins. A new view using in vivo covalent labeling.
David J. Fink,Harold Gainer +1 more
TL;DR: A large quantity of a 68,000 mol wt proteins, moving at approximately 3-6 mm/day, dominated the retograde transport profile, and [3H]N-SP represents a new and unique "vital stain" which may find many applications in cell biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of a labeled acylating probe for the study of fast axonal transport, in vivo.

Rapid Construction of
TL;DR: A rapid and simple method that uses PCR to generate deletion constructs that can be used as internal standards to measure the level of a specific mRNA by cPCR is described.
