The developmental and regional expression of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) mRNA was examined in the rat brain and spinal cord by northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization. ChAT mRNA expression in the brain showed a biphasic increase during development, with a first peak at two weeks postna

Urocortin was recently cloned from the rat midbrain. Urocortin is a member of the corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) peptide family and shows 45% sequence identity to CRF and 63% sequence identity to urotensin. It binds with a high affinity to CRF 1 and CRF 2 receptors, resulting in the stimulatio
## Abstract A cDNA clone encoding rat basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was used as a hybridization probe to determine the level of bFGF mRNA during rat brain development as well as in different adult rat brain regions. In the rat brain, a 3.7kb bFGF RUNA was detected together with lower levels
## Abstract The ubiquitous existence of calciumโactivated neutral protease (CANP, calpain), an enzyme whose activity is regulated by calcium ions and a specific endogenous CANP inhibitor (calpastatin), is well known. Although there has been much investigation concerning the distribution and role of
