IB4, or the B4 lectin isoform from Bandeiraea simplicifolia (Griffonia simplicifolia), has played an important role in the delineation of the pathways of pain transmission. One of the two major groups of primary afferents that target the spinal cord dorsal horn neurons are labeled by IB4; the other group by TrkA and peptides such as …
Can you use targeted toxins in vivo? Yes, Molecular Neurosurgery is designed as a tool for in vivo use. How do you recommend administration of the targeted toxin? There are several ways to administer the toxins depending on the cells being targeted: Direct intraparenchymal pressure microinjection can be used to deliver the targeted toxin directly …
