  2. 6. MIR, a novel ERM-like protein in the nervous system

    Author : Per-Anders Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; MIR; ERM; band 4.1 superfamily; MRLC; NSAP; neurite outgrowth; nervous system; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Abstract : Proteins of the band 4.1 superfamily are characterized by their sequence similarity to the ERM proteins ezrin, radixin and moesin, which are involved in cell motility, adhesion of cells, and signal transduction events. READ MORE

  4. 7. Roles of mammalian Scribble in polarity signaling, virus offense and cell-fate determination

    Author : Michael Wigerius; Magnus Johansson; Lawrence Banks; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cell polarity; scribble; tbev; RhoGTPase; jak-stat; mapk; neurite outgrowth; influenza a virus; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Mammalian Scribble is a target for proteins encoded by human papilloma virus, retro- and flaviviruses. Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a flavivirus that have evolved distinct strategies to escape antiviral responses. READ MORE

  5. 8. Studies on Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Microdispensing, Neurite Guidance and Galectins

    Author : Per Gustavsson; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vävnadskultur; histokemi; cytokemi; Histologi; tissue culture; histochemistry; cytochemistry; Histology; Schwann cells; sciatic nerve; dorsal root ganglia; DRG; neurite guidance; galectins; inkjet; microdispensing; peripheral nervous system; nerve regeneration; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : The present thesis describes development of a microdispenser-based technique to create of protein patterns for neurite guidance. The same technique was also developed to allow direct positioning of dissociated cells, including neurons, on cell culture substrates. Finally the role of galectin-3 and 8 during nerve regeneration was investigated. READ MORE

  6. 9. Experimental Studies of BMP Signalling in Neuronal Cells

    Author : Susanna Althini; Ted Ebendal; Carl-Henrik Heldin; Ingrid Strömberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Bone Morphogenetic Protein BMP ; Growth Differentiation Factor 10 GDF10 ; Aktivne-receptor Like Kinase 2 ALK2 ; Tyrosine Hydroxylase TH ; Neurotrophic Factor; Neurite Outgrowth; Hippocampus; Catecholamine; PC12; Sympathetic Ganglia; Substantia Nigra SN ; Gene Targeting; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; Medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Abstract : The developing nervous system depends largely on extracellular cues to shape its complex network of neurons. Classically, neurotrophins are known to be important mediators in this process. READ MORE

  7. 10. Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase mutations and downstream signalling

    Author : Christina Schönherr; Ruth H Palmer; Aristidis Moustakas; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase; oncogene; RTK; neuroblastoma; crizotinib; NVP-TAE684; gain-of-function; MYCN; transcription factor; small GTPase; Rap1; C3G; PC12 cells; neurite outgrowth; molecular cell biology; molekylär cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The oncogene Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) and was initially discovered as the fusion protein NPM (nucleophosmin)-ALK in a subset of Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphomas (ALCL). Since then more fusion proteins have been identified in a variety of cancers. READ MORE
