Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple calcium channels and neuronal function

TL;DR: It is shown that neurons have a number of different types of calcium channels, each with their own unique properties and pharmacology, and these calcium channels may be important in the control of different aspects of nerve activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dominant role of N-type Ca2+ channels in evoked release of norepinephrine from sympathetic neurons.

TL;DR: N-type calcium channels play a dominant role in the depolarization-evoked release of norepinephrine, and are involved in stimulus-secretion coupling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superoxide production in rat hippocampal neurons: selective imaging with hydroethidine

TL;DR: Digital-imaging microfluorimetry of the oxidation of hydroethidine (HEt) to ethidium can be used to monitor superoxide (O2-) production selectively within individual rat hippocampal pyramidal neurons in culture and in brain slices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caspase cleavage of tau: Linking amyloid and neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: A novel mechanism linking amyloid deposition and neurofibrillary tangles in AD is suggested: Aβ peptides promote pathological tau filament assembly in neurons by triggering caspase cleavage of tau and generating a proteolytic product with enhanced polymerization kinetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunohistochemical localization of enkephalin in rat brain and spinal cord.

TL;DR: The results of the histochemical staining show that certain structures which positively stain for enkephalin closely correspond to the distribution of opiate receptors in the brain and thus support the concept that the endogenous opiate peptides are involved in the perception of pain and analgesia.
