Changes in ERK1/2 phosphorylation in the rat striatum and medial prefrontal cortex following administration of the adenosine A1 receptor agonist and antagonist.

abstract：:Drebrin has been known to act on actin filaments at dendritic spines to cause morphological change, and might be related to the plasticity of synaptic transmission. In the present study, changes of drebrin were examined immunohistochemically in the spinal motoneurons of rats following unilateral sciatic nerve transect...
