Journal ArticleDOI
The expression of tissue and urokinase-type plasminogen activators in neural development suggests different modes of proteolytic involvement in neuronal growth.
TL;DR: Immunohistochemical and enzymatic analysis showed that active tissue plasminogen activator is produced by, and retained within, the floor plate, and a mechanism is suggested by which high levels of tissue plase activator produced by the stationary cells of thefloor plate could influence the direction of growth of commissural axons as they pass through this midline structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Urokinase‐type Plasminogen Activator Expression by Neurons and Oligodendrocytes During Process Outgrowth in Developing Rat Brain
TL;DR: For both neurons and oligodendrocytes, the onset of urokinase‐type plasminogen activator expression coincides with their initiation of major process outgrowth, although neurons maintain this expression in the adult, possibly to retain a degree of synaptic plasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of a cardiac Ca2+-release channel isoform in mammalian brain

TL;DR: Localization using cardiac-muscle RyR-specific antibodies and antisense RNA revealed that brain RyRs were present in dendrites, cell bodies and terminals of rat forebrain, and highly enriched in the hippocampus, and hence may play a fundamental role in neuronal Ca2+ homoeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor during axogenesis and synaptic contact in the central and peripheral nervous system of developing rat
TL;DR: The results suggest that type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate may be involved in the regulatory mechanism controlling Ca2+ levels in neurons during the periods of cell differentiation, axogenesis and synaptogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
NeuN/Fox-3 is an intrinsic component of the neuronal nuclear matrix.
TL;DR: Fox‐3 and Splicing factor SC35 colocalize by fluorescence microscopy and are repored as uniprotkb-Q6PDU1 and B7ZC13, respectively.
