Cover Article: Role of Cell Fate Determinants in a Model of Spinal Cord Neurotoxic Lesion Induced by Cholera Toxin B-Saporin

Contributed by Rosario Gulino, Vincenzo Perciavalle and Massimo Gulisan Dept of Physiological Sciences, Univ of Catania, Viale Andrea Doria, 6-I95125 Catania ITALY A promising approach for central nervous system (CNS) repair consists in the activation of endogenous neural precursor cells (NPCs), but this process is less efficient in the spinal cord (SC) following a spinal

Retrograde Transport

Q: I have a question about Retrograde Transport. There is a comment in the FAQ “In fact, we recommend that you wait two weeks at least to see immunohistological evidence of a toxic effect after injection of a saporin toxin in vivo.” Are there data to support this recommendation? As a researcher who utilizes your
