Open AccessModified Northern blot protocol for easy detection of mRNAs in total RNA using radiolabeled probes
Northern blotting is still used as a gold standard for validation of the data obtained from high-throughput whole transcriptome-based methods. However, its disadvantages of lower sensitivity, labor-intensive o...

Altered Localization of the δ Subunit of the GABAA Receptor in the Thalamus of α4 Subunit Knockout Mice
The α4 subunit of the GABAA receptor (GABAAR) is highly expressed in the thalamus where receptors containing the α4 and δ subunits are major mediators of tonic inhibition. The α4 subunit also exhibits considerabl...

Sensitivity of Prestaining RNA with Ethidium Bromide Before Electrophoresis and Performance of Subsequent Northern Blots Using Heterologous DNA Probes
Adding ethidium bromide (EtBr) at low concentrations to RNA samples before running formaldehyde–agarose gels affords the advantages of checking RNA integrity and evaluating the quality of size-separation at an...

Isolation of RNA of high quality and yield from Ginkgo biloba leaves
An improved protocol was developed to isolate total RNA in good yield and integrity from Ginkgo biloba leaves containing high levels of flavonoid glycosides, terpene lactones, carbohydrates and polyphenolic secon...

Distribution of glutamate-like and glutamine-like immunoreactivities in the rat organ of Corti: a light microscopic and semiquantitative electron microscopic analysis with a note on the localization of aspartate
The light- and electron microscopic localization of glutamate and glutamine in the rat organ of Corti was studied by means of antisera raised against the respective amino acids coupled to carrier proteins. The...

Distribution of glutamine-like immunoreactivity in the cerebellum of rat and baboon (Papio anubis) with reference to the issue of metabolic compartmentation
The cellular and subcellular localization of glutamine, a major glutamate precursor, was studied by means of an antiserum raised against glutaraldehydefixed glutamine. Ultrathin sections from the cerebellar co...
