Effect of ephedrine on neuronal plasticity of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage in neonatal rats.

abstract：:The localisation of transforming growth factor-beta-2 (TGF-beta 2) in skeletal muscles was investigated with immunohistochemistry. In neonates, TGF-beta 2 was distributed throughout the muscle fibres but as the fibres matured TGF-beta 2 became restricted to the circumference of a small subpopulation of nuclei. These n...
