Glucosylceramide in the nervous system - A mini-review
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-05)
A reviewer of this manuscript has recommended that I warn the reader that the hypotheses offered here do not have enough experimental support to make them widely accepted.
Pulsatile LH secretion in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS): Evidence for normal neuroregulation of the menstrual cycle
(Elsevier, 1992)
The premenstrual syndrome (PMS) has been proposed to result from excessive exposure to and/or withdrawal of brain opioid activity during the luteal phase. Because hypothalamic opioids are believed to modulate GnRH secretion, ...
Asymmetric cross-sensitization to the locomotor stimulant effects of phencyclidine and MK-801,
(Elsevier, 1994-08)
Chronic administration of a psychomotor stimulant has been shown to produce progressively enhanced effects, a phenomenon called "reverse tolerance" or sensitization. Sensitization which develops to the psychomotor stimulant ...
The retina as a biochemical model of central nervous system regeneration
(Elsevier, 1980)
The visual system of primitive vertebrates has long served as a useful model for the resynthesis of damaged neurons. The prior optic nerve crush imparts a marked tendency on the part of cultured retinal explants to extend ...
Laminin supports neurite outgrowth from explants of axotomized adult rat retinal neurons
(Elsevier, 1986-07)
The influence of laminin on neurite outgrowth from explants of adult rat retina and its distribution in normal and lesioned rat optic nerves were examined. Neurite outgrowth required the presence of laminin in the substratum, ...
Basal lamina and extracellular matrix alterations in the caudal neural tube of the delayed Splotch embryo
(Elsevier, 1987-12-15)
Regional patterns of deposition of laminin (LN), fibronectin (FN), type IV collagen (IV), and heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) were examined during the formation of the caudal neural tube in embryos homozygous for the ...
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 ...
Wortmannin Blocks Goldfish Retinal Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase and Neurite Outgrowth
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-04)
The goldfish retina has been used extensively for the study of nerve regeneration. A role for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) in neurite outgrowth from goldfish retinal explants has been examined by means of wortmannin ...
Age effects in serial hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal monitoring
(Elsevier, 1986)
To evaluate age effects on hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal (HPA) regulation in depressives, we studied 65 patients with major depressive disorder, endogenous subtype. With each patient serving as his or her own control, ...
