Bcl-2 genes regulate noise-induced hearing loss
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2008-03)
Proteins of the Bcl-2 family have been implicated in control of apoptotic pathways modulating neuronal cell death, including noise-induced hearing loss. In this study, we assessed the expressions of anti- and proapoptotic ...
Hypophysectomy and the structure of exploratory behavior in the rat
(Elsevier, 1979-10)
Chronically maintained hypophysectomized or sham-operated adult male Sprague/2-Dawley rats were exposed to a novel environment and their activity patterns were recorded for 4 hr. A comparison of behavior across groups ...
Hippocampal lesions and active avoidance
(Elsevier, 1968-09)
Rats with lesions of the hippocampus were impaired relative to normal rats in the acquisition and retention of a one-way active avoidance task, but were superior to normal and partially neodecorticate rats in the acquisition ...
Reduction of the same calcium current component by A and C kinases: Differential pertussis toxin sensitivity
(Elsevier, 1988-05-16)
Voltage-clamp techniques were used to study the effect of forskolin, 8-Br-cyclic AMP, and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) on the 3 voltage-dependent calcium current components of mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons in ...
Upper limb asymmetries in the utilization of proprioceptive feedback
(Springer-Verlag, 2006-01)
Despite the importance of proprioception during upper limb movement, the extent to which arm/hemisphere asymmetries exist in the utilization of proprioceptive feedback remains unclear. In the present study, movement accuracy ...
Preface – Special issue: Multiple system atrophy
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag/Wien, 2005-12)
Stress-induced rise of body temperature in rats is the same in warm and cool environments
(Elsevier, 1990-04)
Several forms of psychological stress result in a rise in body temperature in rats. In this study, we report that rats housed at a low ambient temperature (11.1[deg]C) develop stress-induced rises in body temperature that ...
Differences in developing the lever-pressing behavior in two strains of rats
(Elsevier, 1975-06)
Learning to lever-press for food in rats may be experimentally analyzed according to (a) association of lever-pressing with food reinforcement; (b) development of the behavior of lever-pressing. The latter was studied in ...
Differential distribution of messenger RNAs for cathepsins B, L and S in adult rat brain: An in situ hybridization study
(Elsevier, 1994-04)
The cysteine lysosomal proteases comprise a large family of highly conserved enzymes which are essential for intracellular protein turnover. These proteases are very efficient in their ability to degrade components of the ...
Antibodies against pax6 immunostain amacrine and ganglion cells and neuronal progenitors, but not rod precursors, in the normal and regenerating retina of the goldfish
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1996-03)
Pax6 is a developmental regulatory gene that plays a key role in the development of the embryonic brain, eye, and retina. This gene is also expressed in discrete groups of neurons within the adult brain. In this study, ...
