Superior sensitivity of conjugates of horseradish peroxidase with wheat germ agglutinin for studies of retrograde axonal transport.

Gonatas, N K, Harper, C, Mizutani, T, Gonatas, J O·1979·Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry

Abstract

We have compared the retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), to the retrograde transport of HRP conjugated with wheat germ agglutinin (WGA). Morphometric studies have shown that WGA-HRP conjugates were 40 times more sensitive than free HRP, in the tracing of retrograde connections from the rat submandibular gland to the superior cervical ganglion. Also, WGA-HRP was more sensitive than free HRP in the tracing of retrograde connections from the rat tongue to the hypoglossal nucleus. Our findings with WGA-HRP are consistent with the observations by Schwab et al. who reported (-125I) WGA is a highly sensitive retrograde tracer (Brain Research 152:145, 1978 (22)).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
