Short-Term Adrenalectomy Increases Glucocorticoid and Mineralocorticoid Receptor mRNA in Selective Areas of the Developing Hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1993-10)
In the central nervous system, adrenal steroids bind to two different types of corticosteroid receptors: glucocorticoid (GR) or mineralocorticoid (MR). In vitro biochemical and autoradiographic techniques have been used ...
Glutamate recognition sites in human fetal brain
(Elsevier, 1988-01-22)
We used in vitro autoradiography with [3H]glutamate to examine the distribution of glutamate recognition sites in 18 and 21 week gestation human fetal brains. We found a wide distribution of [3H]glutamate binding in both ...
Hypoxia-ischemia produces focal disruption of glutamate receptors in developing brain
(Elsevier, 1987-07)
We examined the impact of a perinatal hypoxic-ischemic insult on the distribution of glutamate receptors in developing brain. We used a well characterized rodent model for perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, unilateral ...
The Role of the Hippocampal Mineralocorticoid and Glucocorticoid Receptors in the Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis of the Aged Fisher Rat
(Elsevier, 1994-10)
The aging process has been frequently associated with hippocampal neuredegeneration, loss of corticosteroid receptors, and, at the same time, dysfunction of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. We were interested ...
