Intracellular recordings were obtained from growing tips of regenerating giant axons in the lamprey spinal cord, the recording sites verified by Lucifer yellow injection. In the presence of extracellular Ba+ + (3-6 mM), tetraethylammonium (10-15 mM), and 4-aminopyridine (4-6 mM), action potentials s
Sensory axons interrupted in the dorsal roots of adult mammals are normally unable to regenerate into the spinal cord. We have investigated whether the introduction of a neurotrophin gene into the spinal cord might offer an approach to otherwise intractable spinal root injuries. The dorsal roots of
The formation of laminar-specific projections is a key event in the development of appropriate neuronal connections in many regions of the central nervous system. In order to provide a framework for defining functions of molecules related to spinal laminar targeting of dorsal root ganglion neurons i
