Rapid Decline In Acetylcholine Release And Content Of Rat Extensor Digitorum Longus Muscle After Denervation, Diana Linden, Michael Newton, Alan Grinnell, Donald Jenden Aug 1983

Rapid Decline In Acetylcholine Release And Content Of Rat Extensor Digitorum Longus Muscle After Denervation, Diana Linden, Michael Newton, Alan Grinnell, Donald Jenden

Diana Linden

The amount of acetylcholine (ACh) and choline (Ch) in normal and denervated rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles, as well as that released spontaneously from these muscles, was determined by an extremely sensitive gas chromatographicmass spectrometric assay method. We found decreases in ACh content and spontaneous, resting ACh release as early as 8 h after denervation. The ACh content decreased to a plateau of 30% of control by 11 h; ACh release attained a plateau of 50% of control several hours later. These results showed that in denervated EDL muscles ACh content and spontaneous release (measured biochemically) decreased before nerve-evoked …

Biosynthesis And Degradation Of Acetylcholine Receptors In Rat Skeletal Muscles. Effects Of Electrical Stimulation, Diana Linden, D.M. Fambrough Mar 1979

Biosynthesis And Degradation Of Acetylcholine Receptors In Rat Skeletal Muscles. Effects Of Electrical Stimulation, Diana Linden, D.M. Fambrough

Diana Linden

Synthesis and degradation of acetylcholine receptors in rat skeletal muscles were measured in organ culture. The rate of de novo biosynthesis and incorporation of acetylcholine receptors into extrajunctional membranes of denervated muscles was measured by determining the rate of appearance of [1] [2H, 13C, 15N]-acetylcholine receptors when muscles were cultured in medium containing [1] [2H, 13C, 15N]-amino acids. Denervated extensor digitorum longus and soleus muscles were found to synthesize new receptors for several days in organ culture at an average rate of 1.4%/h. The degradation rates for extrajunctional and junctional acetylcholine receptors were estimated by irreversibly labeling acétylcholine receptors on …

A Forebrain Visual Projection In The Frog (Rana Pipiens), Edward Gruberg, Victor Ambros Jul 1974

A Forebrain Visual Projection In The Frog (Rana Pipiens), Edward Gruberg, Victor Ambros

Victor R. Ambros

In the frog (Rana pipiens) using a modification of the Fink-Heimer degeneration stain, a projection was traced from the lateral anterior thalamus via the lateral forebrain bundle to the ipsilateral striatum in the ventrolateral area of the forebrain. Striatal degeneration extended from the anterior commissure to the olfactory bulb. Single-unit microelectrode recording revealed that this area contained visual units that responded to the on and off of light.
