The giant glial cell in the central nervous system of the leech Hirudo medicinalis has been the subject of a series of studies trying to link its physiological properties with its role in neuron-glia interactions. Isolated ventral cord ganglia of this annelid offer several advantages for these studi
Plasma can leak into the nervous system when the vascular endothelial barrier is compromised. Although this occurs commonly, little is known about the effects of plasma on the function of cells in the central nervous system. In this study, we focused on the responses of glial cells, which, because t
Roles proposed for nitric oxide (NO) in CNS pathophysiology are increasingly diverse and range from intercellular signaling, through necrotic killing of cells and invading pathogens, to the involvement of NO in apoptosis and tissue remodeling. In vitro evidence and observations from experimental ani
Accumulating evidence suggests that neuregulin (NRG) plays special roles in the development of the mammalian nervous system. We have already identified NRG as a survival factor for Schwann cells during development. In this report, we have studied all possible NRG isoforms and expression of NRG in th
