## Abstract To probe the effects of possible inhibitors or enhancers of in vivo myelination, we have modified a technique widely used in studies of the developing neuromuscular system that involves incorporation of test compounds into a silicon rubber solution, which solidifies on contact with air.
The regulation of phosphoinositidase C (PIC) activity by guanosine-5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTPyS) was characterized in a cholate-solubilized peripheral myelin-enriched fraction from rat sciatic nerve. The GTP analog maximally enhanced PIC-catalyzed hydrolysis of exogenous phosphatidylinositol-4,5
We studied the effects of experimental diabetes on the pharmacokinetics of biperiden (BP) and scopolamine (SP) and brain muscarinic receptor alterations in rats after the injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (60mg kg-' i.v.). The serum levels of BP and SP differed significantly between the rats 14 week
