The growth-associated protein B-50 (GAP-43) is a presynaptic protein. Its expression is
largely restricted to the nervous system. B-50 is frequently used as a marker for sprouting …

It has now been shown that a membrane phosphoprotein initially studied independently by
several laboratories and given different designations, is in fact the same protein. Thus, the …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent age‐related neurodegenerative disorder,
affecting over 35 million people worldwide. Pathologically, AD is characterized by the …

In contrast to peripheral nerves, damaged axons in the mammalian brain and spinal cord
rarely regenerate. Peripheral nerve injury stimulates neuronal expression of many genes …

A CNS catecholaminergic cell line, Cath. a, was established by targeted oncogenesis in
transgenic mice. Cath. a cells express neuronal properties but lack neuronal morphology …

This is the first book on the neurobiology of learning and memory that covers
comprehensively all levels of analysis, from molecules to brain, in both invertebrates and …

Growth cones are specialized structures that form the distal tips of growing axons. During
both normal development of the nervous system and regeneration of injured nerves, growth …

The ability of neurons to regenerate an axon after injury is determined by both the
surrounding environment and factors intrinsic to the damaged neuron. We have used cDNA …

Neurogranin, formerly designated p17 (Baudier, J., Bronner, C., Kligman, D., and Cole,
RD)(1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1824-1828), a brain-specific in vitro substrate for protein …

Growth cones, the motile apparatus at the ends of elongating axons, are sites of extensive
and dynamic membrane-cytoskeletal interaction and insertion of new membrane into the …
