1. Molecular factors influencing nerve growth : studies on the developing rodent trigeminal ganglion and tooth pulp
Abstract : The adult tooth pulp has a rich protective sensory innervation from the trigeminal ganglion (TG). The developmental establishment of this exclusively nociceptive innervation is not fully understood today. READ MORE

2. Ganglionic nerve fibres in ventral roots
Abstract : According to the law of Magendie, the ventral roots channel efferent nerve fibres from the spinal cord to the periphery, while the dorsal roots channel afferent axons from the periphery into the spinal cord. However, as sensory C-fibres have been observed in mammalian ventral roots outside the autonomic outflow, this law has been questioned. READ MORE

3. On optic nerve injury : experimental studies on axonal regeneration in the adult mammalian CNS
Abstract : Optic nerve injury may occur after a trauma to the head and in many cases it causes partial or total blindness. Today, these patients cannot be offered any specific treatment to restore visual function. READ MORE

4. Development requirements of neurotrophins in the mammalian nervous system
Abstract : The survival of the mammalian peripheral nervous system neurons has long been known to depend on neurotrophic factor support during the period of programmed cell death. In fact this was the original hypothesis, put forward after the discovery of the prototype, nerve growth factor (NGF). READ MORE

5. On the relation between nerve fibres and glial cells
Abstract : The general aim of this study is to generate knowledge on the normal axo-glial relations in developing and adult vertebrate white matter. CNS and PNS specimens from developing and mature rats and from chickens of various ages were analysed through electron microscopy of single and serial sections, or through immunohistochemistry.
