Morphological Analysis of 5-HT Neurons Transplanted into the Olfactory Bulb of the Adult Rat

  • Chapter
Model Systems of Development and Aging of the Nervous System

Abstract

Transplantation of monoaminergic neurons has been extensively developed during the last decade, owing to the availability of specific techniques for the study of grafted tissues (see review in Gash, 1983; Björklund and Stenevi, 1985). Many of these studies concentrated on the dopaminergic system, due to the underlying pathology of Parkinson’s disease (Stenevi et al., 1976; Björklund et al., 1976; Björklund and Stenevi, 1979; Dunnett et al., 1985) and the possible application to human subjects (Backlund et al., 1985).
