One of the functions of glial receptors is to regulate synthesis and release of a variety of neuropeptides and growth factor peptides, which in turn act on neurons or other glia. Because of the potential importance of these interactions in injured brain, we have examined the role of two different re
## Abstract The failure of the adult injured spinal cord to support axonal regeneration is in part attributed to the glial scar. Reactive astrocytes constitute a major cellular component of the glial scar and are heterogeneous with respect to the extracellular matrix proteins that they secrete. Ast
## Abstract Aquaporinβ4 (AQP4) is located on astrocyte endfeet that face blood vessels in the brain and in the pia. It is thought to play a crucial role in the development of brain edema. To confirm the notion that sex steroids and dexamethasone influence brain edema through AQP4 regulation, we inv
## Abstract Spinesin/TMPRSS5 is a mosaic type serine protease that is predominantly expressed in the spinal cord. To identify the mechanism of spinesin expression, we investigated its expression in vivo and in vitro using several cell lines. Immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization analyses re
