  1. 6. Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptors in the Nervous System: Neurotrophic Functions with Emphasis on Catecholaminergic Neurons

    Author : Henrik Bengtsson; Åke Seiger; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Abstract : Members of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily exhibit a range of effects on a host of different cell types. They signal through heteromeric complexes of serine/threonine kinase receptors of type I and type II. READ MORE

  2. 7. New Conditional Gene Targeting Methods : For Studying Neurotrophic Mechanisms in Selected Neuronal Populations

    Author : Jonas Lindeberg; Christer Betsholtz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; Medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Abstract : Powerful techniques to manipulate the mouse genome have had a great impact on our understanding of biology. The major drawback with conventional transgenic methods is that the genetic alteration will be present in every cell of the animal, from conception and onwards. READ MORE

  3. 8. Influence of Child and Adolescent Psychopathology on Adult Personality Disorder

    Author : Mia Ramklint; Per-Hoove Thomsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; child psychiatry; personality; major depressive disorder; disruptive disorder; conduct disorder; retrospective analysis; self-assessment; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Child and Youth Psychiatry; Barn- och ungdomspsykiatri;

    Abstract : Individuals afflicted with childhood and adolescent mental disorders have an increased risk for poor outcome in adulthood. The progression of psychopathology from childhood to adult life may be influenced by a multitude of interacting variables, both biological and psychosocial. READ MORE

  4. 9. Role of Bone Morphogenetic Proteins for Catecholaminergic Neurons in Vivo : Use of the Tyrosine Hydroxylase Locus for Cell-Specific inactivation of Signal Transduction

    Author : Dmitry Usoskin; Ted Ebendal; Ernest Arenas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Tyrosine Hydroxylase; Bone Morphogenetic Proteins BMP ; Transforming Growth Factor-β TGF-β ; tissue-specific knockout; Parkinson s disease; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi;

    Abstract : Members of the Transforming Growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily and its subclass Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMP) play important roles for nervous system development. In order to study the BMP role for catecholaminergic neurons in vivo, we generated three knock-in mice, expressing the transgenes specifically in the targeting cells. READ MORE

  5. 10. Assessment of cognition in ageing. Investigating internal validity, occurrence and reversion of Mild Cognitive Impairment. Data from the general population study “Good Aging in Skåne”

    Author : Marie Claire Overton; Geriatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ageing; Older adults; Cognition; validity; test administrator effects; cohort effects; Mild cognitive impairment;

    Abstract : Given a growing population of older adults and the common occurrence of natural as well as pathological cognitive decline, i.e. dementia, there is a need to better understand how to accurately measure and classify level of cognitive functioning. READ MORE
