Project description:Fear conditioning in rats leads to long term memory (LTM) formation. A central neural substrate for LTM is the basolateral amygdala. We sought the expression changes specific to LTM at 6h following anesthesia with isoflurane (a general anesthetic and an effective amnestic agent), following pain (a component of conditioning), and following conditioning in presence and absence of isoflurane. Keywords = anesthesia, amygdala, LTM, Rampil, Isoflurane, fear, memory Keywords: other

Project description:Inflammation is a key component of pathological angiogenesis. Here we induce cornea neovascularisation using sutures placed into the cornea, and sutures are removed to induce a regression phase. We used whole transcriptome microarray to monitor gene expression profies of several genes
