Abstract excerpt
In normal adult rats, intense immunostaining for the 75 kDa low-affinity receptor for nerve growth factor and other neurotrophins (p75NGFR) is concentrated in the middle region of the cuneate nucleus (CN), distributed in a blotchy pattern similar to that of cytochrome oxidase (CO) activity. In the adult rats, partial dorsal rhizotomies (centered around the 7th and 8th cervical spinal segments) resulted in the...
