Pig Fetal Septal Neurons Implanted into the Hippocampus of Aged or Cholinergic Deafferented Rats Grow Axons and Form Cross-Species Synapses in Appropriate Target Regions
The anatomical specificity of axon growth from fetal pig septal xenografts was studied by transplanting septal cells from E30–35 pig fetuses into cholinergic deafferented (192-IgG-saporin-infused) rats or into aged rats (> 18 months). Cell suspensions (100,000 cells/μl) were injected bilaterally...
