We show the cellular distribution of immunoreactivity (IR) for brain-derived-neurotrophic-factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) and tyrosine kinase receptors TRKB and TRKC in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) and controls at post-mortem. In both gr

Degeneration of dopaminergic neurons and focal gliosis are pathological hallmarks of Parkinson's disease and although the brain is described as immune-privileged focal immune reactions surround failing nigral neurons. We examined the cellular distrib

Previous electrophysiological evidence has indicated that astrocytes and oligodendrocytes express inwardly rectifying K(+) channels both in vitro and in vivo. Here, for the first time, we have undertaken light microscopic immunohistochemical studies

There is evidence that astrocytes and microglia can release agents which might have a protective effect on damaged neurons. However the associations of glia with dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease are not defined. Our studies showed that in

An understanding of the role of reactive glia in the neurodegenerative/regenerative process requires a knowledge of the molecules synthesised by these cells following trauma. We investigated the cellular localisation of lipocortin-1 (LC-1), a putativ

Astrocytes are potentially useful as vehicles for gene transfer into the CNS. As endogenous CNS cells, they possess secretory mechanisms and can be grown in vitro. We have developed an animal model of this system using autologous astrocyte grafts in

The literature describing the expression of 5-HT receptor subtypes by astrocytes is controversial and incomplete. It is clear that primary cultures of astrocytes express receptors of the 5-HT2 family coupled to phospholipase C and of the 5-HT7 recept

The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) diaphorase histochemical technique was used as a marker to assess the distribution of nitric oxide synthase activity in the carp retina. NADPH-diaphorase activity was found to be present in phot

Dual colour immunofluorescence has been used to compare the distribution of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) and GAP-43 in the adult rat. GAP-43 immunostaining was observed in all spinal cord regions containing 5-HT immunoreactivity. 5-HT and GA

We have used a combined molecular and immunocytochemical approach to examine the expression of lipocortin-1 (LC-1) in kainate-lesioned rat cerebellum. Using immunocytochemistry, Western and Northern blotting, we have shown upregulation of LC-1 mRNA a
