Intracellular partitioning of androgen receptor immunoreactivity in the brain of the male syrian hamster: Effects of castration and steroid replacement
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-07)
The effect of castration and steroid replacement on the intracellular partitioning of the androgen receptor in the brain of the male Syrian hamster was determined using immunocytochemistry. Androgen receptors were visualized ...
Lesions of the central nucleus of the amygdala I: Effects on taste reactivity, taste aversion learning and sodium appetite
(Elsevier, 1993-12-31)
Bilateral damage to the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeAX) in the rat blunts need-induced NaCl intake and abolishes daily need-free NaCl intake when measured with a two-bottle test. Such a deficit could be the result ...
Temporal pattern of C1q deposition after transient focal cerebral ischemia
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-04)
Recent studies have focused on elucidating the contribution of individual complement proteins to post-ischemic cellular injury. As the timing of complement activation and deposition after cerebral ischemia is not well ...
Androgen receptor immunoreactivity in the male and female Syrian hamster brain
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-06-05)
To investigate potential mechanisms for sex differences in the physiologic response to androgens, the present study compared the hormonal regulation of intracellular androgen receptor partitioning and the distribution of ...
Culturing spinal cord explants in a collagen gel
(Elsevier, 1984-08)
A new method for culturing spinal cord slices or explants is presented which entails the use of a commercially available purified collagen, Vitrogen. Vitrogen provides a stable three-dimensional matrix for culturing spinal ...
Further studies on a novel animal model of depression: Therapeutic effects of a tricyclic antidepressant
(Elsevier, 1981)
We have previously shown that rats given stress before open field testing have elevated activity in comparison with unstressed rats. This acute behavioral response may be eliminated by chronic stress and restored by ...
Time course of tinnitus development following noise exposure in mice
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2012-07)
Gap‐induced prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle (GPIAS) has been used in rats and mice to study the problem of tinnitus. The current study demonstrates that similar methods can be used to study the temporal development ...
Susceptibility to sensitization. I. Sex differences in the enduring effects of chronic -amphetamine treatment on locomotion, stereotyped behavior and brain monoamines
(Elsevier, 1988-09-01)
There are sex differences in a number of behaviors elicited by amphetamine (AMPH). The purpose of the present experiment was to determine if there are also sex differences in the sensitization of the locomotor activity and ...
Branchial ventilation rates of cataleptic goldfish (Carassius auratus) and the effects of light and electric shock
(Elsevier, 1972-03)
Inverted, cataleptic goldfish showed an increase in ventilation rate over a 20 min period. The time-dependent increase in respiratory movement was initially suppressed when a 10 sec light or a 0.1 sec shock was presented ...
Protease nexin-1 activity in cultured Schwann cells
(Elsevier, 1991-07-08)
We report that protease nexin-1 (PN-1), a serine protease inhibitor known to have neurite-promoting effects, is made by Schwann cells in tissue culture. Three modalities have been used to demonstrate the presence of PN-1 ...
