Blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction occurs in cerebrovascular diseases and neurodegenerative disorders such as stroke. Opening of the BBB during a stroke has a negative impact on acute outcomes. We have recently demonstrated that miR-34a regulates the BBB by targeting cytochrome
Nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) has been used to stain motor nerve terminals and unmyelinated axons in vertebrate skeletal muscle, but undesirable background connective tissue coloration resulted. This procedure was improved by separation of the tetrazolium salt's binding from its subsequent reduction.

In the previous study (Jordan et al., 1989), we demonstrated that androgen treatment of juvenile male rats inhibits the elimination of synapses in the levator ani (LA) muscle. In the present study, we asked whether synapse elimination would occur once

A quantitative histochemical procedure was developed for the demonstration of purine nucleoside phosphorylase in rat liver using unfixed cryostat sections and the auxiliary enzyme xanthine oxidase. The optimum incubation medium contained 18% (w/v) poly(vinyl alcohol), 100 mM phosphate buffer, pH

We studied the effect of section thickness on the reaction rate of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity in unfixed sections of rat liver by use of continuous monitoring by microdensitometry of the reaction product as it formed in the section during
