  2. 1. Effects of ethanol on the expression of immediate-early genes in nerve cells

    Author : Wei-Qun Ding; Institutionen för laboratoriemedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuroadaptation; the central nervous system; AP-1; junD; junB; c-jun; fosB; c-fos; neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y; ethanol; immediate-early genes; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Abstract : Immediate-early genes of the fos and jun families encode proteins that dimerize to form a complex of activator protein 1 and regulate the expression of a number of genes in the nervous system. Ethanol has previously been shown to induce alterations in expression of fos and jun genes in the brain. READ MORE

  4. 2. Molecular and functional anatomy of the mouse olfactory epithelium

    Author : Viktoria Vedin; Anna Berghard; Urban Lendahl; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; olfactory epithelium; odorant receptor; zone; odorant; gene expression; cell specification; c-Fos; dichlobenil; olfactometry; proliferation; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : The olfactory system is important for social behaviors, feeding and avoiding predators. Detection of odorous molecules is made by odorant receptors on specialized sensory neurons in the olfactory epithelial sheet. READ MORE

  5. 3. Impulse noise and brain injury. An experimental study in rats

    Author : Annette Säljö Moberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : apoptosis; astrocytes; brain injury; blast; c-Fos; c-Jun; c-Myc; impulse noise; ; neurons; neurofilament; NSE; rat and S-100;

    Abstract : Abstract. Pressure waves, experienced as impulse noise, affect many body organs, although most attention has been paid to the inner ear. Impulse noise is produced by e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Regulation of vascular function by fluid mechanical forces. Development of a new vascular experimental platform for integrative physiological and molecular biological studies of living conduit vessels

    Author : Li-Ming Gan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; perfusion model; endothelium; smooth muscle cells; shear stress; pressure; nitric oxide; endothelin-1; vascular endothelial growth factor; c-jun; c-fos; real-time PCR; NO probe.;

    Abstract : The vascular endothelium is a multifunctional interface between blood flow and target organs and is continuously exposed to fluid mechanical forces such as shear stress, compressive, and tensile forces. Both in vivo and in vitro data indicate that biomechanical forces exert important modulating effects on key vascular functions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mechanisms of traumatic brain injury in the rat : Morphological consequences and neurotrophic responses

    Author : Anders Lewén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Cortical contusion injury; TBI; neurons; axons; dendrites; APP; MAP2; BMPR-II; ActR-I; trkB; c-fos; BDNF; PACAP; TUNEL; TGFs; serine threonine; bone morphogenetic protein; neuropeptides; reactive oxygen species; ROS; apoptosis; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Neurosurgery; neurokirurgi;

    Abstract : Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of death and disability in the Western world. especially in young people. Understanding the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury is the basis for further development of better therapeutic strategies for such patients. READ MORE
