Measles virus spreads in rat hippocampal neurons by cell-to-cell contact and in a polarized fashion.
When the cells were injected in rats that are genetically incapable of making myelin, they successfully clad the rat neurons in insulation.
His team took rat neurons (nerve cells) and grew cell lines in culture to allow them to examine some of the chemical processes that take place.
In rat neurons, less selectivity for kurtoxin on calcium channels is found.
We tried the same thing with fruit flies and then with rat embryonic neurons.
Honokiol has been shown to promote neurite outgrowth and have neuroprotective effects in rat cortical neurons.
Additionally, honokiol increases free cytoplasmic Ca in rat cortical neurons.
Because of their wide availability, neuronal networks are typically cultured from dissociated rat neurons.
The biological elements are typically rat neurons connected to a computer chip.
This effect was observed in isolated rat neurons.
