We investigated the effects of ATP (adenosine 5Π-triphosphate) and derivatives on leech neuropile glial cells, focusing on exposed glial cells. ATP dosedependently depolarized or hyperpolarized neuropile glial cells in situ as well as exposed neuropile glial cells. These potential shifts varied amon

Glass surfaces were patterned with cell-adhesive regions of laminin adhesive peptides YIGSR, RGD, and IK-VAV, and cell-repulsive regions of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The patterns were created by sputter-coating titanium and then gold onto glass coverslips through electron microscope grids. Gold s
The recent discovery of a proteolipid protein gene family has revealed that its members are in fact widely distributed and are not exclusively associated with myelination. To date, three different gene products, DMβ£/DM-20/PLP, DMβ€/M6a, and DMβ₯/M6b, have been isolated from certain primitive fish spec
Using monoclonal antibodies, we have identified two novel intermediate filament (IF) proteins, Gliarin and Macrolin, which are specifically expressed in the central nervous system of an invertebrate. The two proteins both contain the coiled-coil rod domain typical of the superfamily of IF proteins f
DA11 is the first fatty acid binding protein (FABP) for which gene expression has been shown to be upregulated following neuronal injury in the adult peripheral nervous system. To understand better the potential regulatory role(s) of this unique FABP in axonal growth and neuronal differentiation, we
