Among the many calcium-binding proteins in the nervous system, parvalbumin, calbindin-
D28K and calretinin are particularly striking in their abundance and in the specificity of their …

A characteristic of nerve cells is their ability to propagate an action potential and to
communicate through specialized contact zones, called synapses. Synapses have received …

In several species, including humans, the dentate granule cell layer (GCL) of the
hippocampus exhibits neurogenesis throughout adult life. The ability to regulate adult …

The orbital and medial prefrontal cortex (OMPFC) of macaque monkeys is a large but little
understood region of the cerebral cortex. In this study the architectonic structure of the …

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. Although epilepsy can be
idiopathic, it is estimated that up to 50% of all epilepsy cases are initiated by neurological …

Intracellular calcium-binding proteins are abundantly expressed in many neuronal
populations. Previous evidence suggests that calcium-binding proteins can modulate …

The cellular distribution of Cae+-binding proteins has been extensively studied during the
past decade. These proteins have proved to be useful neuronal markers for a variety of …

Transgenic mice with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter driven‐astrocyte
production of the cytokines interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) were used to …

With the recent progress in surgical treatment modalities, human brain tissue from patients
with intractable focal epilepsies will increasingly become available for studies on the …

There are discrete subpopulations of GABAergic interneurons in the basolateral amygdala
(ABL) that contain particular neuropeptides or calcium-binding proteins (calbindin-D28k …
