  1. 1. Brain Regeneration - in vitro and in vivo studies of exercise-related effects on brain plasticity

    Författare :Cecilia Bull; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :brain; neural progenitor cells; stem cells; hippocampus; corpus collosum; rat; mouse; regeneration; neurogenesis; oligodendrogenesis; irradiation; exercise;

    Sammanfattning : Neural stem and progenitor cells in the germinal regions of the adult brain, such as the hippocampus, are of great interest, because they provide the possibility for enhanced brain plasticity or can contribute to endogenous cell replacement after injury or disease. Voluntary exercise was recently shown to robustly induce cellular and structural plasticity, thereby contributing to overall brain health. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Lithium and brain plasticity - studies on glial cell changes and electroconvulsive treatment-induced amnesia in rats

    Författare :Karin Orre; Enheten för psykiatrisk neuromodulering (PNU); []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lithium; electroconvulsive seizures; mood disorder; gliogenesis; amnesia; oligodendrogenesis; myelination; NG2 cells;

    Sammanfattning : Depression and bipolar disorder, collectively known as mood disorders, are devastating, common and often chronic illnesses. Imaging studies of patients with mood disorders have demonstrated structural changes in several brain regions implicated in mood regulation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Neural stem cells in the spinal cord : identity, function and potential

    Författare :Moa Stenudd; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A large body of work has been dedicated to understanding and remedying the pathological processes that take place after spinal cord injury. Despite these efforts, treatment options are limited and patients with spinal cord injury are left with life-long disability. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Opioids regulate proliferation of neural progenitors. A study on the effects of opioids on adult rat hippocampal progenitors in vitro and in vivo

    Författare :Anders I. Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Opioid; brain; hippocampus; rat; neurogenesis; progenitor; stem cell; b-endorphin; calcium; MAPK;

    Sammanfattning : The opioid receptors were among the first pharmacologically described brain receptors. These opioid receptors have thereafter been shown to mediate effects on proliferation and differentiation in both the embryonal and adult central nervous system. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Translational research of the quaking gene : Focusing on the conjunction between development and disease

    Författare :Bryn Farnsworth; Lina Emilsson; Roman Chrast; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; QKI; glia; oligodendrocyte; Alzheimer s; schizophrenia; zebrafish; statistics; morpholino; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär organismbiologi; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Organismal Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Quaking (QKI) is an RNA binding protein involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Originally identified as the cause of hypomyelination in a mouse mutant, it has since been consistently implicated in a wide range of neurological diseases. LÄS MER
