Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrastructural characterization of the mesostriatal dopamine innervation in mice, including two mouse lines of conditional VGLUT2 knockout in dopamine neurons.

TL;DR: The results suggest that, in mouse even more than rat, the mesostriatal DA system operates mainly through non‐targeted release of DA, diffuse transmission and the maintenance of an ambient DA level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors augment growth of fetal brain tissue grafts.

TL;DR: It is concluded that both aFGF and bFGF may have neurotrophic effects on several brain areas during development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal cord grafts: an intraocular approach to enigmas of nerve growth regulation.

TL;DR: Experiments such as these suggest that "negative neurotropic" factors may be present in spinal cord and possibly relate to the unique relationship between spinal ganglia and spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of platelet-derived growth factor isoforms on dopamine neurons in vivo: -BB supports cell survival, -AA enhances fiber formation

TL;DR: Platelet-derived growth factor-AA significantly enhanced dopaminergic fiber outgrowth from mesencephalic grafts when compared to both platelet- derived growth factor -AA and -BB and controls, without an accompanying rise in the number of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular and subcellular localization of protein I in the peripheral nervous system.

TL;DR: The results indicated that protein I is present throughout the peripheral nervous system, andDenervation studies of adrenal medulla and iris suggested that the protein I contained in peripheral tissues is localized to the neuronal elements innervating those tissues.
