  1. 1. Functional studies of the Quaking gene : Focus on astroglia and neurodevelopment

    Författare :Katarzyna Radomska; Elena Jazin; Pertti Panula; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; QKI; RNA-binding protein; astrocyte; interferon; GFAP; neurodevelopment; zebrafish; neural progenitor cell;

    Sammanfattning : The RNA-binding protein Quaking (QKI) plays a fundamental role in post-transcriptional gene regulation during mammalian nervous system development. QKI is well known for advancing oligodendroglia differentiation and myelination, however, its functions in astrocytes and embryonic central nervous system (CNS) development remain poorly understood.

  3. 2. From dopamine nerve fiber formation to astrocytes

    Författare :Franziska Marschinke; Ingrid Strömberg; Cecilia Lundberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dopamine; dopaminergic neurons; astroglia; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; Histology; Histologi; neurologi; Neurology;

    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and characterized by the loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra in the midbrain. The causes of the disease are still unknown. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On optic nerve injury : experimental studies on axonal regeneration in the adult mammalian CNS

    Författare :Marcus Ohlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Astroglia; axon; degeneration; glial scar; immunohistochemistry; macrophage; methylprednisolone; microglia; neurosurgery; optic nerve; rat; regeneration and visual evoked potentials;

    Sammanfattning : Optic nerve injury may occur after a trauma to the head and in many cases it causes partial or total blindness. Today, these patients cannot be offered any specific treatment to restore visual function. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The effects of neurotrophic substances on primary sensory neurons following peripheral nerve injury

    Författare :Petri Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DRG; dorsal horn; NGF; BDNF; NT-3; substance P; calcitonin gene-related peptide; fluoride-resistant acid phosphatase; carbonic anhydrase; microglia; astroglia;

    Sammanfattning : Sensory impulses from the periphery is transmitted by primary sensory neurons located in dorsal root and cranial nerve ganglia. The primary sensory neurons are phenotypically diverse with regard to their expression of various chemical components. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Neurogenesis and gliogenesis after focal brain ischemia. Modulation by enriched environment and exercise

    Författare :Mila Komitova; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :astrocyte; hippocampus; neural progenitor cells; neural stem cells; neurogenesis; neurotrophins; rat; regeneration; rehabilitation; stroke;

    Sammanfattning : New neurons are formed from dividing neural stem cells in restricted areas in the adult mammalian brain: the dentate gyrus of the hippocampal formation (DG) and the forebrain subventricular zone (SVZ). New glia also form constitutively and seem to be important for neuronal function. LÄS MER
