Abstract excerpt
Somatostatin (SRIF) receptors are expressed in the external granule cell layer of the rat cerebellum during early postnatal life. The aim of the present study was to investigate the distribution and biochemical characteristics of SRIF binding sites in the cerebellum of homozygous (vasopressin deficient) Brattleboro rats, which exhibit a selective impairment of their granule cell layer. This study has been...
