  2. 1. Phenotypic Specification of Striatal Progenitors; Evidence for both cell-autonomous and environmental control as studied by transplantation into the adult and developing rodent brain

    Author : Martin Olsson; Neurobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; striatal projection neurons; striatal development; somatostatin; parvalbumin; neuronal differentiation; neural transplantation; medial ganglionic eminence; lateral ganglionic eminence; forebrain dvelopment; cholinergic; embryonic; thyroid transcription fa; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Abstract : The striatum is the major component of the ventral telencephalon and basal ganglia, involved in the processing of cortical information. The vast majority of the neuronal population in the striatum are striatal projection neurons, with connection to the globus pallidus and substantia nigra. READ MORE

  5. 3. Regenerating the brain : stem cell differentiation and cholinergic dysfunction in Alzheimer disease

    Author : Linn Malmsten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hippocampal neurogenesis in the adult brain is important for learning and memory processes, which are heavily affected in Alzheimer disease (AD). Thus, targeting processes that could stimulate neurogenesis is a logical step in the search for strategies offering neuronal renewal and brain repair. READ MORE

  6. 4. Stem cell differentiation, plasticity and regenerative mechanisms in the cholinergic system : implications for Alzheimer’s disease

    Author : Mats Nilbratt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Alzheimer´s disease; amyloid precursor protein; cholinergic differentiation; human embryonic stem cells; neural precursor; nicotinic acetylcholine receptor; neurotrophic factor; radial glial cells; transplantation;

    Abstract : Stem cells are immature cells with self-renewal capacity. They are able to differentiate into multiple lineages that may serve as a source of expandable cells for various applications. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cholinergic receptors in human prenetal brain : presence, distribution and influence of nicotine and ethanol

    Author : Lena Falk; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Events early in life, including exposure to various compounds, may cause disturbances in brain development. Both maternal smoking and alcohol drinking during pregnancy can induce preand postnatal death, cognitive and neurobehavioral disturbances. READ MORE
