Abstract excerpt
Glial cell line neurotrophic factor(GDNF) is a potent survival factor for several types of neurons. GDNF binds with high affinity to the GDNF-family receptor alpha-1 (GFRalpha-1) which is expressed in different brain areas. In the present study, by using anatomical techniques, we document the phenotypic diversity among GFRalpha-1 expressing neurons in the CNS. GFRalpha-1 expression was found in GABA...
