  1. 1. The γ-aminobutyric acid and proton signaling systems in the zebrafish brain : Characterization and effect of stress

    Författare :Arianna Cocco; Svante Winberg; William H. J. Norton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; g-aminobutyric acid GABA ; GABAA receptors; adult zebrafish; central nervous system; gene expression profiling; extracellular acidification.; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The central nervous system of vertebrates is continuously processing sensory information relayed from the periphery, integrating it and producing outputs transmitted to efferents. In the brain, neurons employ an array of messenger molecules to filter afferent information and finely regulate synaptic transmission. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Hydrothermal alteration of organic matter at spreading centers

    Författare :Eva Andersson; Bernd R.T. Simoneit; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Kemi; Biogeochemistry; biogeokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Alteration of organic matter, mainly amino acids, at sub-seafloor hydrothermal conditions has been investigated by performing laboratory experiments and by studying deep-sea sediments from hydrothermally active areas on the northern Juan de Fuca Ridge, northeast Pacific Ocean.Quaternary sediments from Middle Valley and the eastern flank of the Juan de Fuca Ridge recovered during the Ocean Drilling Program Legs 139 and 168 have been analyzed for total hydrolyzable amino acid concentrations, individual amino acid abundances and stereochemistry in order to evaluate the effects of hydrothermal stress on the decomposition of sedimentary amino acids.

  4. 3. The optic tectum of the salmon:site of interaction of neurohormonal photoperiodic and neural visual signals. The GABAergic neuronal system and melatonin receptors

    Författare :Marie Anzelius; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal anatomy; melatonin receptors; GABA; optic tectum; fish; brain; animal morphology; Djurs anatomi och morfologi;

    Sammanfattning : Melatonin is a neurohormone which mediates photoperiodic signals from the pineal organ to the brain. GABA (g-aminobutyric acid) is the major inhibitory transmitter in the central nervous system. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Zinc-enriched neurons in the spinal cord, cerebellum and peripheral sympathetic system

    Författare :Zhan-You Wang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :autometallography; axonal transport; confocal laser scanning microscopy; immuno-electron microscopy; immunofluorescence; inhibitory neurons; sympathetic neurons; synaptic vesicles; zinc ions; zinc transporter;

    Sammanfattning : Zinc ions are abundant in the nervous system and are involved in many biological functions. Most zinc is tightly bound to macromolecules, whereas a small fraction of zinc exists in synaptic vesicles of the zinc-enriched (ZEN) neurons, and can be visualized using various histochemical techniques, including autometallography (AMG).
