Cover Article: Immunolesioning – From Spinal Cord to Brain

Contributed by Dr. Ann Schreihofer, University of Virginia, contributes this issue’s article from the laboratories of ATS customers. Dr. Schreihofer summarizes her research with anti-DBH-SAP (Cat. #IT-03) to immunolesion specific rostral ventral medulla neurons that project to the spinal cord by injection of anti-DBH-SAP into the rat spinal cord. The toxin is taken up and

Behavioural, histological and immunocytochemical consequences following 192 IgG-Saporin immunolesions of the basal forebrain cholinergic system.

Perry T, Hodges H, Gray JA (2001) Behavioural, histological and immunocytochemical consequences following 192 IgG-Saporin immunolesions of the basal forebrain cholinergic system. Brain Res Bull 54(1):29-48. doi: 10.1016/s0361-9230(00)00413-5 Summary: 192-Saporin (Cat. #IT-01) has been used extensively as a model for Alzheimer’s Disease. The neuronal deficits caused by intraparenchymal forebrain injections (0.3-0.51 µg/µl) are apparent during

Cortical cholinergic inputs mediate processing capacity: Effects of 192 IgG-saporin-induced lesions on olfactory span performance.

Turchi J, Sarter M (2000) Cortical cholinergic inputs mediate processing capacity: Effects of 192 IgG-saporin-induced lesions on olfactory span performance. Eur J Neurosci 12:4505-4514. Summary: Many experiments support the theory that the basal forebrain (BF) is involved in major aspects of attention that influence learning and memory. Elimination of cholinergic neurons in the BF by
