1. Mass Spectrometry of Non-protein Amino Acids BMAA and Neurodegenerative Diseases
Detta är en avhandling från Stockholm : Department of Environmental Science and Analytical Chemistry, Stockholm UniversitySammanfattning : Neurodegenerative diseases have been shown to correlate positively with an ageing population. The most common neurodegenerative diseases are amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. LÄS MER
2. Mass-spectrometry based survey of BMAA sources, distribution and transfer
Detta är en avhandling från Stockholm : Department of Environmental Science and Analytical Chemistry, Stockholm UniversitySammanfattning : β-methylaminoalanine (BMAA) is a neurotoxic non-protein amino acid first isolated from cycad seeds in 1967. It is believed to be connected to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and is a ubiquitous compound produced by cyanobacteria, diatoms and dinoflagellates.

3. Cellular transport and secretion of the cyanobacterial neurotoxin BMAA into milk and egg Implications for developmental neurotoxicity
Detta är en avhandling från Uppsala : Acta Universitatis UpsaliensisSammanfattning : The cyanobacterial amino acid β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) is a neurotoxin implicated in the etiology of neurodegenerative diseases. Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan organisms present in various environments. LÄS MER
4. Distribution and Long-term Effects of the Environmental Neurotoxin β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) Brain changes and behavioral impairments following developmental exposure
Detta är en avhandling från Uppsala : Acta Universitatis UpsaliensisSammanfattning : Many cyanobacteria are reported to produce the nonprotein amino acid β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA). Cyanobacteria are extensively distributed in terrestrial and aquatic environments and recently BMAA was detected in temperate aquatic ecosystems, e.g. the Baltic Sea. LÄS MER
5. Detection, transfer and role of an environmentally spread neurotoxin (BMAA) with focus on cyanobacteria and the Baltic Sea region
Detta är en avhandling från Stockholm : Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences, Stockholm UniversitySammanfattning : β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) is one of the more recently discovered bioactive compounds produced by cyanobacteria. BMAA is a non-protein amino acid reported present in human brain tissues of patients deceased from a neurodegenerative disease, such as Alzheimer´s disease or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
