Effects of sleep deprivation on the post-natal development of visual deprived cells in the cat's lateral geniculate nucleus
[Somatotopic organization of the vestibulospinal tract in the toad]. FT Organizzazione somatotopica della via vestibolospinale nel rospo.
The origin of the vestibulospinal projection in the toad has been investigated by using the method of the retrograde axonal transport of HRP injected at various levels of the spinal cord. The vestibulospinal projection, in this species, was found to be somatotopically organized, since neurons projecting to the cervical segments of the spinal cord were located within the rostromedial part of the ventral vestibular nucleus and those neurons projecting to the lumbosacral segments of the spinal cord were located within the caudolateral part of that nucleus. This pattern of organization of the vestibulospinal projection in amphibia is similar to that described in mammals and birds
Nuclear localization of a lactic dehydrogenase with single-stranded DNA-binding properties
In the preceding article [1] we identified the 34 kD single-stranded DNA-binding (ssb) protein, whose synthesis is inhibited in PC12 cells concomitantly with nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced mitotic arrest, with the enzyme lactic dehydrogenase (LDH-ssb protein). Localization studies performed with antibodies raised against the LDH-ssb protein demonstrate the presence of a pool of this protein in the nucleus of several cell types. The nuclear association of this protein is sensitive to DNase treatment of the cells and quantitative electron microscopy confirms that the LDH-ssb protein is located close to chromatin structures. These results point to a possible involvement of the LDH-ssb protein in some nuclear function(s)
