Journal ArticleDOI
Morphometrical evidence for a complex organization of tyrosine hydroxylase-, enkephalin- and DARPP-32-like immunoreactive patches and their codistribution at three rostrocaudal levels in the rat neostriatum.
Luigi F. Agnati,Kjell Fuxe,Michele Zoli,Francesco Ferraguti,Fabio Benfenati,Cc Ouimet,Si Walaas,Hugh C. Hemmings,Menek Goldstein,Paul Greengard +9 more
TL;DR: The data demonstrate that, by using computer-assisted morphometrical techniques, it is possible to describe a non-homogenous but overlapping distribution of tyrosine hydroxylase-like immunoreactive and dopamine- and cyclic AMP-regulated phosphoprotein-like Immunoreactive patches in the rat neostriatum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of phosphorylation and neuronal activity on the control of synapse formation by synapsin I.
Laura E. Perlini,Francesca Botti,Eugenio F. Fornasiero,Maila Giannandrea,Dario Bonanomi,Mario Amendola,Luigi Naldini,Fabio Benfenati,Fabio Benfenati,Flavia Valtorta +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that Syn I is an important regulator of synapse formation, which adjusts synapse number in response to extracellular signals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional role of ATP binding to synapsin I in synaptic vesicle trafficking and release dynamics.
Marta Orlando,Gabriele Lignani,Luca Maragliano,Anna Fassio,Franco Onofri,Pietro Baldelli,Silvia Giovedì,Fabio Benfenati +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the ATP-SynI binding plays predocking and postdocking roles in the modulation of SV clustering and plasticity of inhibitory synapses.
Journal ArticleDOI
The synapsin gene family in basal chordates: evolutionary perspectives in metazoans
Simona Candiani,Luca Moronti,Roberta Pennati,Fiorenza De Bernardi,Fabio Benfenati,Fabio Benfenati,Mario Pestarino +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that synapsin genes are metazoan genes present in a single copy per genome, except for vertebrates, and it is hypothesize that, during the evolution ofsynapsin proteins, new domains are added at different stages probably to cope up with the increased complexity in the nervous system organization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pain, analgesia, and stress: an integrated view.
Luigi F. Agnati,M. Tiengo,Francesco Ferraguti,Giuseppe Biagini,Fabio Benfenati,C Benedetti,M Rigoli,Kjell Fuxe +7 more
TL;DR: To reach a better understanding of the psychophysiological basis of pain, a view where WT and VT cooperate within neuronal systems functionally affected by the pervading modulatory action of endocrine signals is considered.
