Robert Mertens,Sarah Melchert,Daniel Gitler,Morten Schou,Sverre Georg Sæther,Arne E. Vaaler,Johannes Piepgras,Elena Kochova,Fabio Benfenati,Gudrun Ahnert-Hilger,Klemens Ruprecht,Markus Höltje +11 more
TL;DR: Anti-synapsin autoantibodies preferentially bind to either the A- or the D-domain of synapsin I.
Journal ArticleDOI
The porcine iodoacetic acid model of retinal degeneration: Morpho-functional characterization of the visual system.
Francesca Barone,Luisa Vera Muscatello,Domenico Ventrella,Alberto Elmi,Noemi Romagnoli,Luciana Mandrioli,José Fernando Maya-Vetencourt,Cristiano Bombardi,Maurizio Mete,Giuseppe Sarli,Fabio Benfenati,Grazia Pertile,Maria Laura Bacci +12 more
TL;DR: The functional and anatomical features of the visual system of IAA-treated pigs are investigated, providing more strength and reliability for future pre-clinical translational trials and ameliorates the characterization of such rapid and cost-effective model.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Imaging extracellular neuronal signaling on high resolution microelectrode arrays (MEAs) Hippocampal cultures coupled with a high resolution neuroelectronic interface
Alessandro Maccione,Fabio Benfenati,Luca Berdondini,Mauro Gandolfo,Mariateresa Tedesco,Sergio Martinoia,K. Imfeld,Milena Koudelka-Hep +7 more
TL;DR: The experimental performances of a high-resolution CMOS integrated microelectrode array platform for acquiring extracellular neuronal signaling in-vitro are described and spatial-temporal resolution is achieved together with data visualization as image sequences to enable the detailed observation of activation sites and burst activity propagations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Naloxone potentiation of 2-Br-α-ergocryptine (CB 154) effects on GH secretion in man
TL;DR: Results have been discussed in the light of morphofunctional findings showing possible interactions between dopamine (DA) systems and somatostatin-positive and enkephalin-positive nerve terminals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aspects of neural plasticity in the central nervous system-II. Numerical classification in neuroanatomy.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the possibility of using taxonomic techniques to classify neuronal populations, in particular coefficients of similarity such as the Canberra metric and the Shannon diversity index, and adapted theoretical work in the field of numerical classification to the aim of characterizing various brain areas in classes according to their transmitter contents.
