For the IB4-SAP (Cat. #IT-10) illustration (Figure 1), our thanks to Christopher N. Honda, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Neuroscience, University ofMinnesota, 6-145 Jackson Hall, 321 Church Street, Minneapolis, MN 55455 This issue of our quarterly newsletter addresses the use of biotinylated materials in targeting. ATS is now offering a biotinylation service (see p. 7) […]

Contributed by ATS’s 2004 Society for Neuroscience Poster of the Year Award Winner:Michelle Pearson, Purdue Pharma, Discovery Research, 6 Cedar Brook Drive, Cranbury NJ 08540 Neuropathic pain results in hyperalgesia and allodynia. It has been proposed that sprouting of myelinated touch-responsive Aβ-fibers into the innervation territory of pain-sensitive C-fibers in the spinal cord contributes to

Contributed by Robert M. Caudle, Ph.D.University of Florida College of Dentistry, Gainesville, FL 32610 A substantial amount of work with Advanced Targeting Systems’ substance P/saporin conjugate (SP-SAP, Cat. #IT-07) has demonstrated that neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor-expressing neurons in the spinal cord and brain stem are necessary for the full expression of central sensitization following a peripheral
