Background and Purpose Neuroanatomical plasticity is well described in lesions of the
hippocampus but remains a subject of some controversy in the neocortex. The purpose of …

Background and Purpose—d-Amphetamine administration increases behavioral recovery
after various cortical lesions including cortical ablations, contusions, and focal ischemia in …

Focal cerebral ischemia creates an area of infarction that is surrounded by neuronal tissue
that may respond to nearby damage by creating neurite growth. To determine if axonal …

Background and Purpose—To elucidate how the motor pathways rewire the denervated
tissue after stroke, we investigated remodeling of the corticospinal tract (CST) in transgenic …

Alterations in factors involved in the regeneration of the neuronal network in the
hippocampus of rats with microsphere embolism (ME) were examined. Nine hundred …

Reactive synaptogenesis and terminal proliferation are known to occur in the dentate gyrus
of the rat hippocampus following removal of specific afferents. In the present study we have …

Plasticity phenomena in the cerebral cortex after ischemic injury have been documented
repeatedly over the past 2 decades both in animal models and in human stroke survivors …

Background and Purpose—Although myelin-associated neurite outgrowth disinhibitors have
shown promise in restoring motor function after stroke, their interactive effects with motor …

Some studies have found that unilateral cerebral damage produces significant deficits in the
ipsilesional,“less-affected”, body side. Other studies have found that such damage results in …

Background and Purpose—Stroke induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)
triggers increased neurogenesis in the damaged striatum and nondamaged hippocampus of …
