A, BDNF mRNA is upregulated in the cortex ipsilateral to excitotoxic lesion in the striatum. Intrastriatal QUIN injection (circles) induced a peak of expression between 4 and 6 hr. BDNF mRNA levels were also increased between 4 and 16 hr after KA-induced striatal injury (squares).Triangles represent sham-injected striata. Values are the mean ± SEM (n = 4–7; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.005). Autoradiograms show two representative experiments. B, Injection of QUIN or KA in the striatum through the contralateral cortex upregulated BDNF mRNA in the ipsilateral cortex. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 4; *p < 0.05).
