  1. 1. On astrocytes and neural stem cells : a study of reactive and canonical neurogenesis

    Författare :Margherita Zamboni; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The mammalian central nervous system has limited regenerative capacity and the long-lasting functional impairment resulting from trauma and neurodegenerative disease derives from a failure to repopulate neuronal cell populations that are lost to injury. The studies included in the present thesis aim at proposing astrocytes as a novel source for achieving widespread replacement of neurons. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Background: It is well known that exposure to ionising radiation increases the risk for breast cancer occurrence. However, better understanding of breast cancer risks in terms of dose-response relationships formulated according to radiobiological target theories, age-at-exposure patterns and temporal dependence are important for the understanding of the underlying biological mechanism of radiation carcinogenesis as well as for the concern about possible risks associated with the very low doses received from routine mammographic screening.
