William Hogarth, Unwitting Neurochemist?
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2000-10)
William Hogarth's famous etching Gin Lane is often used to illustrate the debilitating results of alcohol addiction. Less well known is the companion etching Beer Street in which death, murder and squalor are replaced by ...
A sequential double-label 2-deoxyglucose method for measuring regional cerebral metabolism
(Elsevier, 1978-09-22)
Sugar receptor specificity in the fleshfly, Sarcophaga bullata
(Elsevier, 1971-12-24)
Various carbohydrates were tested for stimulating activity of the sweet receptor of Sarcophaga bullata. Efficacy appears to be highest in -pyranosides having equatorial substituents at C-2, C-3, C-4 and C-5, with the ...
Residual effects of tracer in sequential double label deoxyglucose studies
(Elsevier, 1992-11-23)
The validity of sequential double label deoxyglucose (DG) determinations of local metabolic rate for glucose (IMRglc) was examined by quantifying the degree of trapping of residual first DG tracer during the second ...
Temporally correlated expression of nAChR genes during development of the mammalian retina
(Elsevier, 1992-04)
In situ hybridizations and RNase protection assays have been used to characterize nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) gene expression in the developing and adult rat retina. At the earliest time examined (embryonic ...
Lectin binding to neurites of goldfish retinal explants
(Elsevier, 1982-09-30)
The lectin binding characteristics of goldfish retinal explants were examined by fluoresence microscopy. Neurites grown out from cultured retinal explants were found to bind concanavalin A, wheat germ agglutinin and ricin ...
Studies on the localization of newly added membrane in growing neurites
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1981-11)
Explant culture of the adult goldfish retina results in vigorous neuritic growth, provided that the optic nerve has been previously crushed in vivo. The site of new membrane addition in these growing neurites was studied ...
Increased tubulin messenger RNA in the goldfish retina during optic nerve regeneration
(Elsevier, 1979-06-08)
Induction of α1-tubulin gene expression during development and regeneration of the fish central nervous system
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1998-11-15)
The α1- and α2-tubulin encoding genes were cloned from a goldfish genomic DNA library. α1- and α2-tubulin RNA expression was examined in developing and adult retinas. These studies demonstrated increased α1-tubulin RNA in ...
