Journal ArticleDOI
Short- and long-term consequences of intracranial injections of the excitotoxin, quinolinic acid, as evidenced by GFA immunohistochemistry of astrocytes
TL;DR: It is concluded that quinolinic acid causes both reversible and long-lasting gliosis when injected into the rat striatum, and may constitute a particularly valuable tool for the elucidation of a possible role of glia in neurodegenerative disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normalization of Spiroperidol Binding in the Denervated Rat Striatum by Homologous Grafts of Substantia Nigra
William J. Freed,GN Ko,Debra L. Niehoff,Michael J. Kuhar,Barry J. Hoffer,Lars Olson,H E Cannon-Spoor,John M. Morihisa,Richard Jed Wyatt +8 more
TL;DR: In animals with brain lesions, grafts of substantia nigra produce a long-term alteration in the functional status of host brain cell receptors that is associated with a reduction in the behavioral deficit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of cellular retinoid-binding proteins suggests specific roles for retinoids in the adult central nervous system
TL;DR: The remarkably selective patterns of cellular retinol-bindingprotein type I- and cellular retinoic acid-binding proteintype I-immunoreactivity discovered in the adult rat brain suggest that retinoids have important roles as regulators of gene expression in normal brain function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain‐derived neurotrophic factor mRNA is expressed in the developing taste bud‐bearing tongue papillae of rat
Christopher A. Nosrat,Lars Olson +1 more
TL;DR: The neurotrophin BDNF is expressed in early development of taste bud‐bearing papillae in the rat tongue in a temporally and spatially controlled manner, presumably to act as a target‐derived chemoat tractant for the early nerve fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adrenergic innervation of the salivary glands in the rat
K. A. Norberg,Lars Olson +1 more
TL;DR: The adrenergic innervation of the major salivary glands in the rat has been studied by a specific histochemical method for the visualization of the adrenergic transmitter, and adrenergic varicose nerve fibres were found.
