  3. 3. Neurotrophic factors and their receptors structure-function relationships and signalling mechanisms

    Författare :Mikael Ryden; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :neurotrophins; nerve growth factor; brain-derived neurotrophic factor; neurotrophin-3; neurotrophin-4; p75 neurotrophin receptor; neuroblastoma; serinethreonine kinase receptors;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The development, survival and maintenance of the vertebrate nervous system requires the continuous supply of a set of polypeptides termed neurotrophic factors. Among these, the neurotrophins (NTs) and members of the transforming growth factor-B (TGF-B) superfamily have raised substantial hopes for future clinical applications. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Regulation of neurotrophins and their receptors : molecular aspects and functional implications

    Författare :Tuija Salin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :neurotrophin; nerve growth factor; brain-derived neurotrophic factor; neurotrophin-3; neurotrophin-4; glia; gliosis; neuron; tyrosine kinase receptor; transgenic; null mutation; gene; exon; intron; mRNA;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to study the regulation of neurotrophins and their receptors in a functional aspect. The studies included analysis of neuronal and glial neurotrophin gene expression, that was investigated by using molecular biological techniques. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The role of glucocorticoid receptors and mitogen-regulated protein kinases in the cochlea

    Författare :Inna Meltser; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Hearing loss induced by acoustic trauma is a common handicap for the human population. Acoustic trauma triggers a cascade of changes in the cochlea such as a direct mechanical damage of sensory hair cells, biochemical disturbances including reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generation, release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and exitotoxicity.
