2. 1. Regional control of cell fate determination and neurogenesis in the developing CNS

   Author : Ulrika Marklund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The development of a functional central nervous system relies on the generation of distinct neuronal subtypes in a spatially and temporally defined order. The spatial organisation is achieved at early developmental time points when neural progenitor cells encounter fields of secreted morphogenic signalling molecules along the anterioposterior and dorsoventral axes of the embryo.

4. 2. Turn-taking and early phonology : Contingency in parent-child interaction and assessment of early speech production

   Author : Ulrika Marklund; Francisco Lacerda; Iris-Corinna Schwarz; Barbro Bruce; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; parent-child interaction; turn-taking; parental responsiveness; phonological development; phonological complexity; assessment of speech production; Phonetics; fonetik;

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on contingency in parent-child interaction, investigating it in the light of the linguistic capacity of the child and the status of the caregiver. Further, the thesis covers the development of two tools to assess the developmental maturity level of expressive phonology. READ MORE

5. 3. Using patient-derived cell models to investigate the role of misfolded SOD1 in ALS

   Author : Elin Forsgren; Jonathan Gilthorpe; Stefan Marklund; Peter Andersen; Thomas Brännström; Ulrika Nordström; Séverine Boillée; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : ALS; SOD1; patient-derived models; induced pluripotent stem cells; motor neurons; astrocytes; 20S proteasome low oxygen tension; misfolded SOD1; Neurology; neurologi;

   Abstract : Protein misfolding and aggregation underlie several neurodegenerative proteinopathies including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) was the first gene found to be associated with familial ALS. READ MORE

6. 4. SOD1 misfolding and aggregation in ALS : in the light of conformation-specific antibodies

   Author : Manuela Lehmann; Jonathan D. Gilthorpe; Stefan L. Marklund; Thomas Brännström; Ulrika Nordström; Elizabeth Fisher; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALS; antibodies; SOD1; disordered SOD1; patient-derived models; low oxygen tension; Immunotherapy;

   Abstract : Mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene are linked to the progressive neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS-associated mutations affect the stability of the SOD1 protein and promote its unfolding. As a consequence, disordered SOD1 species can misfold and accumulate into insoluble aggregates. READ MORE
