MRI Overestimates Excitotoxic Amygdala Lesion Damage in Rhesus Monkeys
Selective, fiber-sparing excitotoxic lesions are a state-of-the-art tool for determining the causal contributions of different brain areas to behavior. For nonhuman primates especially, it is advantageous to keep subjects with high-quality lesions alive ...

The Discovery and Characterization of Targeted Perikaryal-Specific Brain Lesions With Excitotoxins
The neurotoxic action of glutamic acid was first described by Lucas and Newhouse, who demonstrated neural degeneration in the inner layers of the neonatal mouse retina after systemic treatment with L-glutamate.

In vivo co-ordinated interactions between inhibitory systems to control glutamate mediated hippocampal excitability. [PDF]
We present an overview of the long-term adaptation of hippocampal neurotransmission to cholinergic and GABAergic deafferentation caused by excitotoxic lesion of the medial septum.

Effects of bilateral anterior agranular insula lesions on food anticipatory activity in rats. [PDF]
Food anticipatory activity (FAA) refers to a daily rhythm of locomotor activity that emerges under conditions of food restriction, whereby animals develop an intense, predictable period of activity in the few hours leading up to a predictable, daily ...

Pseudosperma arenarium (Inocybaceae), a new poisonous species from Eurasia, based on morphological, ecological, molecular and biochemical evidence [PDF]
In this study, Pseudosperma arenarium is proposed as a new species, based on morphological, ecological, molecular and biochemical evidence. The new species grows on sandy ground under Populus and Pinus sylvestris in north-western China and northern ...

Neurotoxic Dorsal CA1 Lesions versus 4 VO Ischaemic Lesions: Behavioural Comparisons
Anterograde amnesia, a common consequence of transient cerebral ischaemia, has been attributed to cell loss in the hippocampal CA1 subfield. However, variable, widespread damage outside hippocampal CA1 can also occur following ischaemia.

Studies on Acetylenic Compounds. XLIII. Synthesis of Ibotenic Acid.
Ibotenic acid (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-isoxazoleacetic acid monohydrate) (I), a flycidal amino acid isolated from Amanitae fungi, was synthesized. The reaction of ethyl 4, 4-diethoxytetrolate (V) with hydroxylamine in the presence of alkali gave 3-hydroxy-5-isoxazolecarboxaldehyde diethyl acetal (VI), which was hydrolyzed with 50% AcOH to the corresponding
