Brain parts

Some ethical and practical concerns may be overcome by the use of porcine rather than human foetal cells and their potential is on trial. Certainly xenotransplants can survive in the human brain partly because it does not show the same immunoreactivity as the rest of the body but recipients will still require some immunosuppressant drugs. Attempts are also being made, with some success, to expand mesencephalic dopamine...

Figure 1. Mean group size for individual primate genera plotted against relative neocortex size. The index of relative neocortex size used here is the ratio of neocortex volume to the volume of the rest of the brain. In most cases, each genus is represented by a single species.

The level of DOPA accumulation (decreased by agonists and increased by antagonists) in different brain parts after the administration of dopaminergic test compounds can be taken as an indirect measure of the DA synthesis rate. Such a biochemical test model can be used in normal animals and in reserpine or GBL pretreated animals (see below).

Since the habit routine search mechanism has very probably several functional neural pathways and brain parts which support its operation, different psychedelic drugs may affect the system by differing mechanisms yet yield very similar overall results. All further supposed effects of the ingestion of these substances are not direct effects of the drugs themselves, but rather are consequences, which very probably are perpetuated and magnified by cybernetic mechanisms, of the changes brought about in the HRS system of the brain. 

An article was printed in the Baltimore Sun on Tuesday, September 26,1983 Johns Hopkins medical scientists have opened a new window into the living brain to study the causes of some of the most disturbing mental and physical disorders of human beings. .. Previously, the mapping of these tiny, hut immensely important brain parts had been limited to tissues obtained at autopsies. .. A lot of changes can occur at or after death, so the results of postmortem studies aren t always reliable. ... 

The same principle may work in the brain. After a stroke, certain areas in the brain are not nurtured by blood, as the circulation is blocked. These brain parts may be still vital but not functioning. By offering them NADH, they get more energy and may regain their functionahty. A number of anecdotal cases of stroke patients treated with NADH did show improvement of their symptoms even weeks after the event.
