  1. 21. Studies on pain-related messengers and receptors in dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord

    Författare :Malin Rydh-Rinder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Pain is the most common reason why people seek medical advice. A large group of patients suffering from so-called neuropathic pain, due to injury to the nervous system itself, is often not helped by the currently available therapies. Classical analgesic drugs, such as opioids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, may have severe side effects. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Human neural stem cell transplantation in experimental brain trauma

    Författare :André Wennersten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability in young adults in the industrialized world. Human neural stem/progenitor cells (hNSCs) can be expanded in culture and have the ability to differentiate into the major cell types of the adult brain. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Human neural precursor cells in spinal cord repair

    Författare :Junghua Piao; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in substantial neural cell death, axonal degeneration and demyelination, accompanied by loss of sensory and motor functions. Cell therapy may have neuroprotective effects, substitute for lost neural cells, promote regeneration and enhance remyelination in the lesioned spinal cord. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Adult human neural stem cells : properties in vitro and as xenografts in the spinal cord

    Författare :Ulf Westerlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Action potential; adult; allodynia; auto-transplantation; endoscope; glutamate; hippocampus; human; neural stem cells; p75; patch clamp; progenitor; spinal cord injury; subventricular zone; synapse; transplantation;

    Sammanfattning : Though the presence of stem cells in the adult human brain has been presented earlier, much has yet to be discovered about these cells. However, the mere potential of these cells has had a significant impact of how we today evaluate the regenerative capacity of the central nervous system and, importantly, on the possible means for science to provide insights in neural repair.

  5. 25. Experimental gene therapy with special reference to plasma cell tumors

    Författare :M Sirac Dilber; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Gene therapy may open new perspectives in the treatment of numerous hematopoietic and metabolic disorders. Particularly, hematopoietic cells are very attractive targets for retroviral mediated gene transfer. LÄS MER
