Catecholaminergic interplexiform cells in the retina of lizards
Elsevier (1996-05)An immunohistochemical study of the distribution of tyrosine hydroxylase has been performed in the retina of lizards of the generaPodarcis, Anolis andTarentola. Immunoreactive cells extending their processes into the inner ... -
Septal complex of the telencephalon of the lizard Podarcis hispanica. II. afferent connections
Wiley (1997-07)The afferent connections to the septal complex were studied in the lizard Podarcis hispanica (Lacertidae) by means of a combination of retrograde and anterograde tracing. The results of these experiments allow us to classify ... -
Amygdalo-hypothalamic projections in the lizard Podarcis hispanica: A combined anterograde and retrograde tracing study
Wiley (1997-08)The cells of origin and terminal fields of the amygdalo-hypothalamic projections in the lizard Podarcis hispanica were determined by using the anterograde and retrograde transport of the tracers, biotinylated dextran amine ... -
Septal complex of the telencephalon of lizards: III. Efferent connections and general discussion
Wiley (1998-11)The projections of the septum of the lizard Podarcis hispanica (Lacertidae) were studied by combining retrograde and anterograde neuroanatomical tracing. The results confirm the classification of septal nuclei into three ... -
Identification of the reptilian basolateral amygdala: an anatomical investigation of the afferents to the posterior dorsal ventricular ridge of the lizard Podarcis hispanica
Wiley (1998-11)The presence of multimodal association in the telencephalon of reptiles has been investigated by tracing the afferent connections to the posterior dorsal ventricular ridge (PDVR) of the lizard Podarcis hispanica. The PDVR ... -
Calcium-binding proteins in the dorsal ventricular ridge of the lizard Psammodromus algirus
Wiley (1999-03)The aim of the present work was to study further the intrinsic organization of the dorsal ventricular ridge of lizards. For that purpose, the morphology and distribution of cells and fibers containing the calcium-binding ... -
What is the amygdala? A comparative approach
Cell Press (1999-05) -
Afferents to the red nucleus in the lizard Podarcis hispanica: Putative pathways for visuomotor integration
Wiley (1999-08)The afferents to the red nucleus from visual and nonvisual forebrain centers have been investigated in the lizard Podarcis hispanica by using both retrograde and anterograde transport of tracers. Because the red nucleus ... -
Evolución de las resistencias a Mycobacterium tuberculosis en la provincia de Castellón. Años 1992-1998
Elsevier España (Elsevier Doyma) (2000)Objetivos Conocer la frecuencia de las resistencias a Mycobacterium tuberculosis y los factores de riesgo asociados a éstas en la provincia de Castellón. Material y métodos Se ha realizado un estudio prospectivo de ... -
Distribution of CGRP-like immunoreactivity in the chick and quail brain
Wiley (2000-06)Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-containing neurones have been implicated in the transmission of visceral sensory information to the cortex and in the control of arterial blood pressure in mammals. However, little ... -
Striato-amygdaloid transition area lesions reduce the duration of tonic immobility in the lizard Podarcis hispanica
Elsevier (2002)Neuroanatomical data suggest that the lizard striato-amygdaloid transition area is homologous with the mammalian central amygdala. In order to investigate possible functional similarities, tonic immobility was induced in ... -
The pallial amygdala of amniote vertebrates: evolution of the concept, evolution of the structure
Elsevier (2002-02)Embryological studies indicate that the amygdala includes pallial structures, namely the cortical amygdala (olfactory and vomeronasal) and the basolateral complex deep to it. In squamate reptiles, the cortical amygdala ... -
Understanding the basic circuitry of the cerebral hemispheres: the case of lizards and its implications in the evolution of the telencephalon
Elsevier (2002-02)The organization of the cerebral hemispheres of mammals is characterized by corticostriatal glutamatergic projections and striatopallidal GABAergic ones, plus the descending projections of the pallium and subpallium to ... -
Distribution of calcitonin gene-related peptide-like immunoreactivity in the brain of the lizard Podarcis hispanica
Wiley (2002-05)The present work studies the distribution of calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive (CGRP-li) neurons and fibers in the brain of a reptile, the lizard Podarcis hispanica. CGRP-li perikarya were not present in the ... -
Attractive properties of sexual pheromones in mice: Innate or learned?
Elsevier (2002-09)It is generally assumed that chemical signals (sexual pheromones) constitute the primary stimulus for sexual attraction in many mammals. However, it is unclear whether these pheromones are volatile or nonvolatile and which ... -
Glutamine synthetase activity and glutamine content in brain: modulation by NMDA receptors and nitric oxide
Elsevier (2003-09)Acute intoxication with large doses of ammonia leads to rapid death. The main mechanism for ammonia elimination in brain is its reaction with glutamate to form glutamine. This reaction is catalyzed by glutamine synthetase ... -
Distribution of corticotropin-releasing factor-immunoreactive neurons in the central nervous system of the domestic chicken and Japanese quail
Wiley (2004-02)In birds, as in mammals, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is present in a number of extrahypothalamic brain regions, indicating that CRF may play a role in physiological and behavioral responses other than the control ... -
Attraction to male pheromones and sexual behaviour show different regulatory mechanisms in female mice
Elsevier (2004-05)In rodents, female sexual behaviour is under hormonal control. The attraction females show for male-derived nonvolatile chemicals (pheromones) can be regarded as the first step of this behaviour, but it is unknown whether ... -
Amygdalostriatal projections in reptiles: A tract-tracing study in the lizard Podarcis hispanica
Wiley (2004-11)Whereas the lacertilian anterior dorsal ventricular ridge contains unimodal sensory areas, its posterior part (PDVR) is an associative center that projects to the hypothalamus, thus being comparable to the amygdaloid ... -
Attraction to sexual pheromones and associated odorants in female mice involves activation of the reward system and basolateral amygdala
Wiley (2005-04)Adult female mice are innately attracted to non-volatile pheromones contained in male-soiled bedding. In contrast, male-derived volatiles become attractive if associated with non-volatile attractive pheromones, which act ...
