11. Neuroinflammation and pain
Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: Persistent pain that remains long after the physiological trigger has been resolved is a disabling condition. A possible mechanism for the transition from acute physiological pain to persistent pain involves low-grade inflammation in the central nervous system, in which inflammatory-activated astrocytes play a significant role.

12. The importance of astroglial cells in ischemia, regeneration and angiogenesis
Sammanfattning : Astrocytes in the CNS communicate with both neurons and blood vessels. In many CNS pathologies, astrocytes respond by becoming reactive. Whether their performance at this stage is beneficial or detrimental for CNS function is unclear. LÄS MER
13. Human iPSC-based models of theCNS: attaining cellular biofidelitythrough conventional and advancedculture systems
Sammanfattning : Brain development is a highly orchestrated process that entails changes in microenvironmental cues and growth factor gradients, which set the tempo for proper development of the rudimentary structures of the brain and the generation of neurons,astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. Another intricate feature of the brain is the bloodbrain barrier (BBB). LÄS MER
14. Expression of sulfatide in rodent CNS - not only restricted to myelin
Sammanfattning : Sulfatide is an acidic glycosphingolipid and a component of myelin in the nervous system proposed to be involved in maintenance of the myelin structure and thereby its function. Sulfatide is also a commonly used marker for detection of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in cultures as well as in tissues. LÄS MER
15. Regulation of postnatal neurogenesis and brain angiogenesis by thyroid hormone
Sammanfattning : Thyroid hormone (TH), which is secreted by the thyroid gland, exerts significant effects on the central nervous system (CNS), especially during development, so that delayed treatment of perinatal hypothyroidism results in severe cognitive retardation. Continuous postnatal neurogenesis occurs throughout adulthood in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricle wall and in the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampal formation.
