Published: December 1989

The distribution of substance P (SP) in the olfactory bulb of the tench Tinca tinca was studied by using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique. Many perikarya and processes of the ganglion cells of the nervus terminalis (NT) were strongly labeled. In addition, SP-like immunopositive fibers were observed in the proximity of these neurons and extending along the olfactory nerves and the olfactory tracts. The ganglion cells of the NT were not immunoreactive for methionine- and leucine-enkephalin, motilin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, neuropeptide Y, cholecystokinin-8, and tyrosine hydroxylase.

Background: A 73-year-old female with a 3 year history of Alzheimer's disease was treated within the protocol of The Alzheimer's Autism and Cognitive Impairment Stem Cell Treatment Study (ACIST), an IRB approved clinical study registered with clinicaltrials.gov NCT03724136.

Method: The procedure consists of bone marrow aspiration, cell separation using an FDA cleared class 2 device, and intravenous and intranasal administration of the stem cell fraction.

Background: Effect of dynamic lighting on sleep were studied since 1980's. Traditional light sources were used due to lack of advancement in technology and also researchers assumed illuminance as cause of melatonin suppression. This led researchers to use high illuminance to suppress melatonin at day time.

Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-based disease modeling can be successfully recapitulated to mimic disease characteristics across various human pathologies. Glaucoma, a progressive optic neuropathy, primarily affects the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). While multiple groups have successfully generated RGCs from non-diseased hiPSCs, producing RGCs from glaucomatous human samples holds significant promise for understanding disease pathology by revealing patient-specific disease signatures.

This study characterizes a fluorescent -tdTomato neuronal reporter mouse line with strong labeling of axons throughout the optic nerve, of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) soma in the ganglion cell layer (GCL), and of RGC dendrites in the inner plexiform layer (IPL). The model facilitated assessment of RGC loss in models of degeneration and of RGC detection in mixed neural/glial cultures. The tdTomato signal showed strong overlap with >98% cells immunolabeled with RGC markers RBPMS or BRN3A, consistent with the ubiquitous presence of the vesicular glutamate transporter 2 (VGUT2, SLC17A6) in all RGC subtypes.
