How aging, seizures and ATP change the intrinsic properties of adult hippocampal neural stem cells.
(2018-12-14)
El hipocampo del cerebro de la mayoría de los mamíferos, incluyendo humanos, es capaz de generar nuevas neuronas a partir de de células madre neurales (NSCs) lo largo de la vida adulta mediante un proceso llamado neurogénesis ...
Perspective: Of Mice and Men - How Widespread Is Adult Neurogenesis?
(Frontiers Media, 2019-08-29)
These are exciting times for research on adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Debate and controversy regarding the existence of generation of new neurons in the adult, and even diseased human brain flourishes as articles ...
Identification of ncRNAs as Potential Therapeutic Targets in Multiple Sclerosis Through Differential ncRNA – mRNA Network Analysis
(Biomed Central, 2015-03-28)
Background: Several studies have revealed a potential role for both small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) in the physiopathology of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). This potential implication ...
Delayed Diagnosis of an Eating Disorder in a Male Patient With Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome: Results From a Case Study
(Frontiers Media, 2019-10-15)
Background: Eating disorders (EDs) are serious and life-threatening mental diseases characterized by abnormal or altered eating habits. The prevalence is variable, being influenced by diverse sociocultural factors. ...
Circadian glucocorticoid oscillations preserve a population of adult hippocampal neural stem cells in the aging brain
(Springer, 2019-06-20)
A decrease in adult hippocampal neurogenesis has been linked to age-related cognitive impairment. However, the mechanisms involved in this age-related reduction remain elusive. Glucocorticoid hormones (GC) are important ...
Myelin imaging and characterization by magnetic resonance imaging
(2019-12-13)
Los axones neuronales están recubiertos de una membrana lipídica llamada mielina, que protege a los axones y posibilita una transmisión rápida y eficiente del impulso eléctrico. En ciertas patologías como la lesión cerebral ...
Phenotypical and functional heterogeneity of neural stem cells in the aged hippocampus
(Wiley, 2019-08)
Adult neurogenesis persists in the hippocampus of most mammal species during postnatal and adult life, including humans, although it declines markedly with age. The mechanisms driving the age-dependent decline of hippocampal ...
Radiotherapy plus nimotuzumab or placebo in the treatment of high grade glioma patients: results from a randomized, double blind trial
(BioMed Central, 2013-06-19)
Background
The prognosis of patients bearing high grade glioma remains dismal. Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is well validated as a primary contributor of glioma initiation and progression. Nimotuzumab is a ...
Early Functional Deficit and Microglial Disturbances in a Mouse Model of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-25)
Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by selective motoneurons degeneration. There is today no clear-cut pathogenesis sequence nor any treatment. However growing ...
Is there a subgroup of long-term evolution among patients with advanced lung cancer?: Hints from the analysis of survival curves from cancer registry data
(Biomed Central, 2014-12-11)
Background: Recently, with the access of low toxicity biological and targeted therapies, evidence of the existence of a long-term survival subpopulation of cancer patients is appearing. We have studied an unselected ...
