TL;DR: A versatile protocol for fixation of post-mortem adult human brain tissue, storage of the tissue in a human brain bank, and immunohistochemical analysis in order to understand human brain functions in normal controls and in neuropathological conditions is established.

TL;DR: The widespread and abundant distribution of the P2Y1 receptor suggests its involvement in a number of important functions within the human brain, and highlights a major role for extracellular nucleotides as signaling molecules within the brain.

TL;DR: Treatments that prevent vascular degeneration and improve vascular remodeling may be a novel target for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: This study explores the expression and functionality of two CGRP receptor candidates in the sensory trigeminal system in a condition in need of new treatments.

TL;DR: Results show that the calcium-binding proteins are heterogeneously distributed in a complementary fashion within the nuclei of the human thalamus, providing further support for the concept recently proposed by Jones (Jones, E.G., 1998) that the primateThalamus comprises of a matrix of calbindin immunoreactive cells and a superimposed core of parvalbumin immunOREactive cells which may have differential patterns of cortical projections.
