  4. 38. Clusterin and Megalin in The Spinal Cord

    Författare :Grzegorz Wicher; Hakan Aldskogius; Lars Hillered; Anders Lewen; Robin Franklin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Neurosciences; nerve degeneration; hypoglossal nerve; chaperone; apolipoprotein; development; transcription factor; astrocyte; glial differentiation; myelin; cell signalling; Neurovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Nerve injury induces up-regulation of the chaperone protein clusterin in affected neurons and adjacent astrocytes but the functional significance of this response is unclear. We find that motor neuron survival is significantly greater in clusterin(+/+) compared to (-/-) mice. LÄS MER
