Gastrin-releasing peptide inhibits CA1 neurons via increasing inhibitory synaptic transmissions in hippocampal slices of rats.

abstract：:Direct application of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to the cut end of axotomized immature motor neurones had only transient survival-promoting effects. Therefore, we have examined whether additional delivery of BDNF with repeated subcutaneous injections (1 mg/ml) could potentiate this short-term rescue of t...
