  1. 1. Role of DARPP-32 in Breast Cancer Cell Signalling and Migration

    Författare :Christian Hansen; Molekylär neurobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cell migration; protein phosphatase 1.; DARPP-32; breast cancer; protein kinase A;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women. While the prognosis for breast cancer patients without local or distal dissemination is relatively favorable, the prognosis is considerably worse once distal metastasis has been established. LÄS MER

  2. 2. DARPP-32 in the striatum : multiple regulation and physiological role

    Författare :Maria Lindskog; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DARPP-32; striatum; adenosine A 2A receptors; dopamine D; receptors; dopamine D 2 receptors; opioid receptors; cAMP; protein phosphorylation; behaviour;

    Sammanfattning : Protein phosphorylation is an important mechanism involved in intracellular signal transduction. The activity of many proteins is affected by their state of phosphorylation, which in turn is determined by the combined activities of protein kinases and protein phosphatases. LÄS MER

  3. 3. EMBRYONIC GLIA AND FOREBRAIN NEUROGENESIS; in vitro generation and differentiation of telencephalic neurons

    Författare :Charlotta Skogh; Neurobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; beta tubulin III; GFAP; RC2; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurofysiologi; DARPP-32; retinoic acid; serum; EGF; co-culture; cell culture; striatum; LGE; progenitor; precursor; radial glia; region specific; development; CNS; mouse; human; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi;

    Sammanfattning : The current thesis is aimed to increase our understanding of the generation and differentiation of telencephalic neurons, with emphasis on the role of glial cells in these processes. Using in vitro methods we have studied the role of glial cells in neurogenesis, inheritance of genetic regional specification, and influence on differentiation of neurons. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The developing rat kidney : the dopamine system and related serine/threonine kinases and phosphatases

    Författare :Johan Svennilson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :apoptosis; confocal immunofluorescence; DARPP-32; dopamine; foetal renal development; hypertension; in situ hybridization; metanephric culture; mouse; nephron number; PKC; PP1 PP2A; protein phosphorylation; rat;

    Sammanfattning : The kidney originates from the fusion and conversion of two tissues: the metanephric mesenchyme and the ureter epithelium, an evagination from the Wolffian duct. Although a number of candidate molecules have been shown to be of importance for the differentiation of the embryonic kidney, many of the signalling pathway leading to this development are still obscure.

  5. 5. Striatal adenosine A2A receptors

    Författare :Per Svenningsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :caffeine; adenosine; A2A receptors; dopamine receptors; striatum; basal ganglia; immediate early genes; c-fos; NGFI-A; DARPP-32; in situ hybridization;

    Sammanfattning : The nucleoside adenosine exerts a modulatory action in the central nervous system by activating G-protein coupled receptors. Four such receptors are cloned and pharmacologically characterized: A1, A2A, A2B and A3. Caffeine, the most widely consumed psychostimulant, acts as an adenosine receptor antagonist predominantly on the first two. LÄS MER
