Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Degenerative diseases represent a severe problem in view of very limited repair capability of nervous system. In order to use

Blanco-Centurion CA, Gerashchenko D, Murillo-Rodriguez E, Shiromani PJ (2002) Simultaneous neurotoxic lesions of noradrenergic LC, histaminergic TMN and cholinergic BF neurons do not elicit hypersomnia whereas lesions of the hypocretin-containing LH neurons do. Neuroscience 2002 Abstracts 577.16. Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Wakefulness is believed to be due to activation of neurons in the

Fargo KN, Sengelaub DR (2002) Androgen manipulation protects remaining motoneurons from dendritic atrophy after induced motoneuron death. Neuroscience 2002 Abstracts 466.13. Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Androgen treatment facilitates axon regrowth after axotomy of facial and sciatic motoneurons, and reverses castration-induced dendritic atrophy in motoneurons of the spinal nucleus of the bulbocavernosus (SNB) in

Kanold PO, Shatz CJ (2002) Developmental regulation of GABA Receptor subunits requires subplate neurons. Neuroscience 2002 Abstracts 530.11. Society for Neuroscience, Orlando, FL. Summary: Subplate neurons (SP) are required for formation and patterning of thalamocortical connections. In visual cortex, SP ablation before the onset of the critical period, but when LGN axons are already in
