   Sammanfattning : The symptoms of Parkinson's disease occur due to degeneration of dopamine neurons in substantia nigra. It has been demonstrated that glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent neurotrophic factor when it comes to protect and enhance survival of dopamine neurons in animal models of Parkinson's disease.

3. 2. Co-localization of the astrocytic proteins Mts1 and clusterin in CNS injury

   Kandidat-uppsats, Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

   Författare :Mirja Augustsson; [2005]
   Nyckelord :astrocytes; clusterin; GFAP; Mts1; parkin; spinal cord injury; astrocytic cultures; Ca-binding protein; chaperon; ABC;

   Sammanfattning : In the case of injury to the CNS, different proteins act to repair and protect cells in the brain and spinal cord. In the present study, we looked at dorsal root injury and hypoglossal nerve avulsion and transection. Here we studied for the first time the expression of Parkin in these types of injuries. LÄS MER
