## Abstract Central nervous system axons regenerate into a Schwann cell implant placed in the transected thoracic spinal cord of an adult rat. The present study was designed to test whether these regenerated axons are capable of conducting action potentials. Following the transection and removal of

The aim of the present study was to monitor the influence of chronic stress on functional recovery from a sciatic nerve crush lesion in the rat. Male Wistar rats underwent standard unilateral sciatic nerve crush. Subsequently, chronic stress was induced during the recovery phase using a daily 30 min
## Abstract Bilateral lesions of the medical preoptic area (MPOA)βanterior hypothalamus of adult male rats markedly disrupt male copulatory behavior. In contrast, more groupβreared then isolated male rats receiving bilateral MPOA lesions as juveniles copulated to ejaculation as adults. The present
The dorsal spinocerebellar tract (DSCT) of the thoracic cord (the thoracic DSCT) consists of uncrossed ascending axons originating from Clarke's column, marginal neurons of Clarke's column, and lamina V neurons, and crossed ascending axons originating from neurons in lamina VIII and the ventromedial
Spinocerebellar projections from the cervical enlargement originate from neurons in the medial part of lamina VI and the central part of lamina VII. In the present study, the topographic projections of the cervical enlargement to the cerebellar nuclei were examined by anterograde tracing with biotin
The spinocerebellar tracts arising from the upper lumbar cord consist of the dorsal and the ventral spinocerebellar tracts (DSCT and VSCT), which ascend ipsilaterally and contralaterally, respectively. By using anterograde labeling with biotinylated dextran in the rat, this study examined whether th
