Neuroprotective mechanism of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor in mesencephalic neurons.

abstract：:Spatial solute concentration profiles resulting from in vivo microdialysis were measured in rat caudate-putamen by quantitative autoradiography. Radiolabeled sucrose was included in the dialysate, and the tissue concentration profile measured after infusions of 14 min and 61.5 min in an acute preparation. In addition,...
