Cultures of dissociated retinal neurons and photoreceptors from homozygous wild-type, heterozygous rdl+ and homozygous rdird retinas have been used to investigate the capacity of isolated photoreceptor cells to synthesize and secrete the interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP). Retinal ce

## Abstract We report here that differentiated, primary, postmitotic neurons and photoreceptors in cultures obtained from embryonic chicks can express foreign genes after transfection by the calcium phosphate method. A variety of viral promoters were tested by using either Ξ²βgalactosidase or chlora
## Abstract Grafting fetal ventral mesencephalon has been utilized to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. One obstacle in using this approach is the limited outgrowth from the transplanted dopamine neurons. Thus, it is important to evaluate factors that promote outgrowth from fetal dopam
## Abstract ## Objective To quantify the levels of proteoglycan 4 (PRG4) expression by subpopulations of chondrocytes from superficial, middle, and deep layers of normal bovine calf cartilage in various culture systems. ## Methods Bovine calf articular cartilage discs or isolated cells were used
## Abstract Studies suggest that cholesterol imbalance in the brain might be related to the development of neurological disorders. U18666A is a wellβknown amphiphile which inhibits intracellular cholesterol transport in treated cells. We have previously shown that U18666A leads to apoptosis and cho
