Dopamine-containing neurons in the spinal cord: anatomy and some functional aspects.

abstract：:Protease-resistant prion protein, total prion protein, and glial fibrillary acidic protein were measured in various brain regions from 9 subjects with fatal familial insomnia. Six were homozygotes methionine/methionine at codon 129 (mean duration, 10.7 +/- 4 months) and 3 were heterozygotes methionine/valine (mean dur...
