1. Estimation of acute toxicity by using the differentiated neuronal progenitor C17.2 cell model
Sammanfattning : The authorities in Europe and United States request information regarding possible toxicity for substances that are produced in one tonne or more per year. Estimation of acute systemic toxicity is conducted in vivo using mice or rats. LÄS MER
2. Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y and neural progenitor C17.2 cell lines as models for neurotoxicological studies
Sammanfattning : We are surrounded by chemicals, thus understanding how exposure to these chemicals affect us during our life is of great social importance. In order to predict human acute toxicity of chemicals, cosmetics or drugs, development of novel in vitro test strategies is required. LÄS MER
3. Apoptotic cell death in neural stem cells exposed to toxic stimuli
Sammanfattning : Neural stem cells (NSCs) play an important role in the developing nervous system and adulthood, where mitotic regions of the brain such as the subventricular zone (SVZ) remain active. In spite of the immense interest in NSC research, little is known about the biochemical regulation by which NSCs undergo cell death in the course of normal physiology or in response to neurotoxic insults.

4. Apoptotic cell death in neural stem cells exposed to toxic stimuli
Sammanfattning : Neural stem cells (NSCs) play an important role in the developing nervous system and in the adult brain, where mitotic regions such as the subventricular zone (SVZ) remain active. In spite of the intense ongoing research on NSCs, we still need to expand the knowledge on biochemical regulation by which NSCs undergo cell death in the course of normal physiology or in response to neurotoxic insults.

5. Novel Endpoints To Unravel Developmental Neurotoxicity : From DNA methylation responses to methylmercury to the in vitro identification of endocrine disruptors
Sammanfattning : The developing brain is especially sensitive to environmental stressors due to its dependence on the precise spatiotemporal regulation of multiple signals, and the long time period required for its formation. Some chemicals can interfere with molecular and cellular processes driving brain development, including epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation. LÄS MER
