  1. 1. Insulin promotes GABA signalling modulation in both the mouse hippocampus and human CD4+ T cells

    Författare :Hayma Hammoud; Bryndis Birnir; Fredrik Elinder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gamma-aminobutyric acid; hippocampus; tonic currents; CD4 T cells; glucose; insulin; cytokines; proliferation.; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the most common inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult mammalian brain, where it mediates several biological functions. Rapid inhibition is predominantly mediated by the activation of GABA-A receptors that are ubiquitously expressed across the central nervous system in a cell-, circuit-, or region-specific manner.

    Sammanfattning : Salt stress is one of the historically as well as potentially largest agriculture problem humans have faced. Researchers have investigated and tried to solve this problem for a long time. Over 20 reviews have been written on this topic the last five years. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Ovarian hormones and effects in the brain : studies of neurosteroid sensitivity, serotonin transporter and serotonin2A receptor binding in reproductive and postmenopausal women

    Sammanfattning : Background: Estrogen has been reported to enhance well-being and quality of life during the climacteric phase. In women with an intact uterus estrogen treatment is always combined with progestins in order to protect the endometrium from hyperplasia and malignancies. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The GDNF-receptor GFR-alpha-1 : neural expression patterns and regulation in stroke

    Författare :Arezou Sarabi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :G DNF; GFR-alpha-1 Strok; . Ischemia; receptors; calcium-binding proteins; gamma- aminobutyric acid; glutamic acid decarboxylase; dopamine; Parkinson s disease;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Neurotrophic factors in the mammalian nervous system are important for development and survival of neurons and for maintenance and plasticity of synaptic connections. Additionally, they have been shown to prevent neurodegeneration after damage to the central nervous system (CNS). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Role of GABA and GABAA Channels in T lymphocytes and Stem cells

    Författare :Suresh Kumar Mendu; Bryndis Birnir; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is best known for its physiological function in the central nervous system.  In the brain GABA is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter where it decreases excitability of neurons and neuronal networks. LÄS MER
