Adult rats (male Lister hooded) received a single unsignaled scrambled footshock (0.5 mA for 2 s) 2 min into a 3min exposure to a novel context. One half rats received bilateral microinfusions (1 micr
Both intraspinal and intramuscular local administration of neurotrophic factors (NFs) have been shown to protect neural tissue after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). In our study, we investigated h
In situ hybridization was used to study the site and timing of the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin 3 (NT-3), and neurotrophin 5 (NT-5) m
The purpose of this study was to examine the expression of glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), the GDNF receptors GFRα1 and GFRα2, ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), and the CNTF receptor CNTFR
