3D reconstruction of synaptic and nuclear corticosteroid receptors distribution density in the amygdala: a feasibility study

(2017) 3D reconstruction of synaptic and nuclear corticosteroid receptors distribution density in the amygdala: a feasibility study. Masters by Research thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This project tested a new way of looking at different types of stress receptors (corticosteroid receptors) in the brain. The method used fluorescent markers to label the stress receptors in brain tissue, and reconstructed microscope images in 3D by using computer software. The thesis details this new method, and demonstrates how it can be used to compare different types of stress receptors, at different locations in the amygdala.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
