Cell swelling and astrogliosis (manifested as an increase in GFAP) were evoked in isolated rat spinal cords of 4-21-day-old rats by incubation in either 50 mM K ϩ or hypotonic solution (235 mosmol kg -1 ). Application of K ϩ and hypotonic solution resulted at first in a decrease of extracellular spa
We describe an experimental model to study regeneration of lesioned corticospinal tract (CST) fibers in the adult rat spinal cord. After transection of all CST fibers at mid-thoracic level the gap is grafted with a sterile, cell-free collagen matrix. Two methods of collagen-application are used: 1)
