Autoradiographic and histological evidence of postnatal hippocampal neurogenesis in rats

Joseph Altman, Gopal D. Das · 1 Jun 1965

Abstract In the autoradiograms of young rats injected with thymidine‐H 3 many of the granule cells of the dentate gyrus were found labeled. The number of labeled cells declined rapidly with increased age at the time of injection. Histological studies showed the presence in young rats of a large germinal matrix of mitotic cells in…

Regional differences in synaptogenesis in human cerebral cortex

Peter R. Huttenlocher, Arun S. Dabholkar · 20 Oct 1997

The formation of synaptic contacts in human cerebral cortex was compared in two cortical regions: auditory cortex (Heschl's gyrus) and prefrontal cortex (middle frontal gyrus). Synapse formation in both cortical regions begins in the fetus, before conceptual age 27 weeks. Synaptic density increases more rapidly in auditory cortex, where the maximum is reached near postnatal…

Human photoreceptor topography

Christine A. Curcio, Kenneth R. Sloan, Robert E. Kalina et al. · 22 Feb 1990

We have measured the spatial density of cones and rods in eight whole-mounted human retinas, obtained from seven individuals between 27 and 44 years of age, and constructed maps of photoreceptor density and between-individual variability. The average human retina contains 4.6 million cones (4.08-5.29 million). Peak foveal cone density averages 199,000 cones/mm2 and is highly…

Equal numbers of neuronal and nonneuronal cells make the human brain an isometrically scaled‐up primate brain

Frederico A. C. Azevedo, Ludmila R.B. Carvalho, Lea T. Grinberg et al. · 18 Feb 2009

The human brain is often considered to be the most cognitively capable among mammalian brains and to be much larger than expected for a mammal of our body size. Although the number of neurons is generally assumed to be a determinant of computational power, and despite the widespread quotes that the human brain contains 100…

Comparative distribution of estrogen receptor-? and -? mRNA in the rat central nervous system

Paul J. Shughrue, Malcolm V. Lane, István Merchenthaler · 1 Dec 1997

Estrogen plays a profound role in regulating the structure and function of many neuronal systems in the adult rat brain. The actions of estrogen were thought to be mediated by a single nuclear estrogen receptor (ER) until the recent cloning of a novel ER (ER-beta). To ascertain which ER is involved in the regulation of…
