Tumor Necrosis Factor-α: a Neuromodulator in the CNS
Weihong Pan,James E. Zadina,Richard E. Harlan,Joseph T. Weber,William A. Banks,Abba J. Kastin +5 more
TL;DR: Accumulating evidence suggests a beneficial effect when TNFα is applied at optimal doses and at specific periods of time, and TNF α may be an important neuromodulator in development of the CNS, diseases of demyelination and degeneration, and in the process of regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The neurotrophins and their receptors: Structure, function, and neuropathology
Lawrence M. Maness,Lawrence M. Maness,Abba J. Kastin,Abba J. Kastin,Joseph T. Weber,Joseph T. Weber,William A. Banks,William A. Banks,Barbara S. Beckman,Barbara S. Beckman,James E. Zadina,James E. Zadina +11 more
TL;DR: Discussion of the observed and postulated involvement in neuropathological disorders leads to the conclusion that the neurotrophins are involved in the function and dysfunction of the nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemoarchitectonic subdivisions of the visual pulvinar in monkeys and their connectional relations with the middle temporal and rostral dorsolateral visual areas, MT and DLr
TL;DR: Staining patterns for calbindin, parvalbumin, and cytochrome oxidase in the pulvinar of rhesus monkeys closely resemble those shown in squirrel monkey inferior pulvinars, suggesting that a common organization exists in all primates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The projections of the lateral geniculate nucleus of the squirrel monkey: Studies of the interlaminar zones and the S layers
TL;DR: Axons arising from neurons within the interlaminar zones and the S layers of the lateral geniculate nucleus of the squirrel monkey terminate within the supragranular layers of area 17, indicating that both pathways may convey W‐cell information from the retina and the superior colliculus to the striate cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroanatomical studies of the nigrotectal projection in the cat
TL;DR: This extensive nigrotectal innervation is not a simple, single circuit, but appears to consist of several parallel channels, with each taking origin from a particular zone of the substantia nigra and terminating within specific collicular laminae and/or sublaminae.
