  1. 1. Epigenetic Dysregulations in the Brain of Human Alcoholics : Analysis of Opioid Genes

    Författare :Igor Bazov; Georgy Bakalkin; Catharina Lavebratt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neuropeptides; dynorphin; human brain; alcohol dependence; epigenetics; gene transcription;

    Sammanfattning : Neuropeptides are special in their expression profiles restricted to neuronal subpopulations and low tissue mRNA levels. Genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms that define spatiotemporal expression of the neuropeptide genes have utmost importance for the formation and functions of neural circuits in normal and pathological human brain.

  4. 3. Genetic and Epigenetic Variation in the Human Genome : Analysis of Phenotypically Normal Individuals and Patients Affected with Brain Tumors

    Författare :Cecilia De Bustos; Jan P. Dumanski; Joseph F. Costello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular genetics; genetic variation; epigenetics; brain tumor; array-CGH; glioblastoma; ependymoma; microarray; methylation; Genetik; Genetics; Genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Genetic and epigenetic variation is a key determinant of human diversity and has an impact on disease predisposition. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and copy number polymorphisms (CNPs) are the main forms of genetic variation. The challenge is to distinguish normal variations from disease-associated changes.

  7. 5. Early life experiences and alcohol use in youth : An emerging role of the Vesicular Glutamate Transporters

    Författare :Maria Vrettou; Erika Comasco; Ingrid Nylander; Kent W. Nilsson; Åsa Wallén-Mackenzie; Roberto Ciccocioppo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :alcohol; early-life stress; brain; early adulthood; expression; DNA methylation; glutamate; Vesicular Glutamate Transporters;

    Sammanfattning : Initiation of alcohol consumption usually takes place during adolescence, a period characterized by a plethora of physical and emotional changes. Towards early adulthood, hazardous drinking patterns can emerge and potentially lead to the development of Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). LÄS MER
