## Abstract Stellation is the process by which astrocytes change from epithelialβlike to processβbearing cells. Stellation occurs following activation of either cyclic AMPβdependent protein kinase or protein kinase C. This process occurs through tubulinβdependent rearrangement of the cytoskeleton.
We prepared primary cultures of mouse astrocytes from the cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, and cerebellum to examine the possibility of regional disparity in binding of human atrial and porcine brain natriuretic peptides (hANP, pBNP) and their effect on cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production
The effect of graded doses of systemically injected sodium pentobarbital on several classes of spinal neurons was studied using spinal cats. Classes of spinal neurons included unidentified dorsal horn cells, ascending tract dorsal horn cells, and motoneurons. Single unit activity of spinal neurons w
Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) mixtures contain a number of different congeners, some of which have been proposed to be neuroactive. Recent studies have suggested that orthesubstituted PCBs may be neuroactive, while 'dioxin-like' non-orthesubstituted congeners are not. This study compared the in vi
