Abstract excerpt
Neuroserpin is a member of the serpin superfamily that is expressed principally in neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Neuroserpin's spatial-temporal expression during development and in the adult brain suggests possible roles in synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity. This is supported by behavioral changes in transgenic mice overexpressing neuroserpin. We have used an embryonic rat primary...
