  1. 1. Regeneration of Peripheral Nerves. The role of protein kinases, with emphasis on neurotrophic factor stimulation

    Författare :Peter Wiklund; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NT-4; NT-3; NGF; MAPK; PKG; PKA; PKC; nodose ganglion; DRG; conditioning effect; neurotrophic factors; protein kinases; peripheral; nerve regeneration; BDNF; GDNF; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of protein kinases in peripheral nerve regeneration, with the use of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and nodose ganglia explants from adult mice. The effects of neurotrophic factor stimulation and protein kinase inhibition were studied for long (days) and short term (minutes) effects. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The effects of neurotrophic substances on primary sensory neurons following peripheral nerve injury

    Författare :Petri Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DRG; dorsal horn; NGF; BDNF; NT-3; substance P; calcitonin gene-related peptide; fluoride-resistant acid phosphatase; carbonic anhydrase; microglia; astroglia;

    Sammanfattning : Sensory impulses from the periphery is transmitted by primary sensory neurons located in dorsal root and cranial nerve ganglia. The primary sensory neurons are phenotypically diverse with regard to their expression of various chemical components. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On the actions of neurotrophic factors on the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla

    Författare :Petter Förander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Neural crest; chromaffin cells; neurotrophic factors; NGF; NT-3; NT4; CNTF; GDNF; TGFß; FGF2; glucocorticoids; Intra oculartransplantation ; primary cultures; neurite outgrowth;

    Sammanfattning : Chromaffin cells producing adrenaline or noradrenaline are the predominant cell type in the adrenal medulla, but ganglion cells and Schwann cells are also present. All cells of the adrenal medulla are derived from the neural crest, which is a transient neuroectoderm-derived embryonic structure. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Neurothrophins in the development of the gustatory system and teeth

    Författare :Christopher A Nosrat; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Gustation; gustatory; taste buds; neurotrophins; NGF; BDNF; NT-3; NT-4; GDNF; GFRalpha-l; GFRalpha-2; knockout; innervation; development; tooth; tooth development; odontogene sis. Christopher A. Nosrat; 1997;

    Sammanfattning : Flavors of taste are detected by a set of microscopical cellular aggregates called the taste buds, present in different arrangements on the upper surface of the tongue and other areas in the mouth. Taste buds are chemosensors that can detect different taste qualities such as sweet, sour, bitter, salt and umami. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Gluco- and mineralocorticoid receptor regulation of regional brain neurotrophism

    Författare :Anita Christiane Hansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Neurotrophins; BDNF; NT-3; bFGF; FGF receptor; immediate early genes; c-fos; antisense oligodeoxynucleotides; adrenalectomy; stress; glucocorticoids; mineralocorticoids; glucocorticoid receptor; mineralocorticoid; receptor in situ hybridization.;

    Sammanfattning : Gluco- and mineralocorticoid hormones exert powerful actions on brain function and are important in the mediation of the stress response and the survival of hippocampal neurons. The aim of this thesis was to study the influence of glucocorticoid (GR)/mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) actions on brain neurotrophism including analyses of immediate early genes (IEGs) and of feedback responses on GR and/or MR.
