## Abstract Reactive astrocytes are one of the main impediments for axonal regeneration in the central nervous system of mammals. Using mice KO for GFAP and vimentin, we show that reinnervation occurs after an hemisection of the spinal cord, mainly through sprouting of controlateral intact serotoni

Double-barrelled pH-sensitive microelectrodes were used to measure the intracellular pH (pH,) of neuropil glial cells and the pH of extracellular spaces (pH,) within isolated, intact ganglia of the leech Hirudo medicinalis. By application of a weak acid (propionate, 40 mM) or a weak base (ammonium,
The E587 antigen (Ag) is a 200-Kd membrane glycoprotein originally identified by a monoclonal antibody on new and regenerating retinal ganglion cell axons in the adult goldfish. We report the isolation of cDNAs encoding the E587 Ag and identify it as a member of the L1 family of cell adhesion molecu
The technique of in situ hybridization has been used to evaluate the expression of a n ovulation hormone mRNA (caudodorsal cell hormone; CDCH) in the central nervous system (CNS) of the mollusc Lymnaea stagnalis. Hybridization with radioactive as well as with nonradioactive labeled oligonucleotide a
The gene plp on the X chromosome encodes the isoforms proteolipid protein (PLP) and DM 20 , two dominant integral membrane proteins of central nervous system (CNS) myelin. DM 20 results from the activation of the cryptic splice site in exon III of the PLP gene. We inserted a sense-orientated loxP fl
