Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of hyperalgesia by ablation of lamina I spinal neurons expressing the substance P receptor.

TL;DR: In this paper, a conjugate of substance P and the ribosome-inactivating protein saporin was infused into the spinal cord, and it was internalized and cytotoxic to lamina I spinal cord neurons that express the substance P receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aluminum, Iron, and Zinc Ions Promote Aggregation of Physiological Concentrations of β‐Amyloid Peptide

TL;DR: High concentrations of certain metals may play a role in the pathogenesis of AD by promoting aggregation of human βA4, a 40‐mer whose neurotoxicity is related to its aggregation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Receptor endocytosis and dendrite reshaping in spinal neurons after somatosensory stimulation

TL;DR: In vivo somatosensory stimuli evoked the release of substance P from primary afferent neurons that terminate in the spinal cord and stimulated endocytosis of Substance P receptors in rat spinal cord neurons, providing a specific image of neurons activated by substance P.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibrillar β-Amyloid Induces Microglial Phagocytosis, Expression of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase, and Loss of a Select Population of Neurons in the Rat CNS In Vivo

TL;DR: FAβ is remarkably stable in the CNS in vivo and suggest that fAβ neurotoxicity is mediated in large part by factors released from activated microglia and astrocytes, as opposed to direct interaction between Aβ fibrils and neurons.
