Abstract excerpt
Previously, we had reported that hippocampal susceptibility to the neurotoxic effects of excitotoxin administration is strain dependent [Schauwecker and Steward, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 94 (1997) 4103]. However, it has been unclear whether strain-related gene products may play a similar role in providing protection against drugs that produce striatal lesions. The present series of experiments sought to...
