1. Phenotypic Specification of Striatal Progenitors; Evidence for both cell-autonomous and environmental control as studied by transplantation into the adult and developing rodent brain
Sammanfattning : The striatum is the major component of the ventral telencephalon and basal ganglia, involved in the processing of cortical information. The vast majority of the neuronal population in the striatum are striatal projection neurons, with connection to the globus pallidus and substantia nigra. LÄS MER
2. Generating GABAergic interneurons through reprogramming and differentiation strategies : English
Sammanfattning : In recent years reprogramming techniques, differentiation protocols, and sequencing analysis have opened a field for generating and studying human-derived neurons with greater potential than ever before. This has generated a large number of studies with the goal of deriving bona fide neurons. LÄS MER
3. Stroke recovery activity-dependent mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Stroke is the leading cause of disability in developed countries and among the major causes of death worldwide. During a stroke, neurons deprived of their normal metabolic substrates cease to function in seconds and show signs of structural damage after only a few minutes which result in the impairment of sensory and motor function.

4. Roles of intermolecular interactions in amyloid fibril formation mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Amyloid fibrils, a major pathological feature of several neurodegenerative disorders, are highly stable, insoluble aggregates of misfolded proteins. The formation of such aggregates involves a complex equilibrium between protein monomers, different on- and off-pathway transient oligomeric species, and amyloid fibrils. LÄS MER
5. On the role of parvalbumin interneurons in neuronal network activity in the prefrontal cortex
Sammanfattning : The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is an area important for executive functions, the initiation and temporal organization of goal-directed behavior, as well as social behaviors. Inhibitory interneurons expressing parvalbumin (PV) have a vital role in modulating PFC circuit plasticity and output, as inhibition by PV interneurons on excitatory pyramidal neurons regulates the excitability of the network.
