A close look at axonal transport: Cargos slow down when crossing stationary organelles.

abstract：:The role of nitric oxide in cerebral insults remains controversial. While numerous studies have used models of ischaemia and hypoxia, few have examined nitric oxide in the kainate model of excitotoxicity. Kainate (10 mg/kg) was administered to rats via the intraperitoneal (i.p.) route to induce submaximal damage to th...

In this model, synuclein is preferentially expressed in normal-appearing neurons, rather than those which undergo apoptosis. It has been proposed, however, that synuclein may mediate ap...
