Brain Regeneration - in vitro and in vivo studies of exercise-related effects on brain plasticity
(2008-06-13)
Neural stem and progenitor cells in the germinal regions of the adult brain, such as the hippocampus, are of great interest, because they provide the possibility for enhanced brain plasticity or can contribute to endogenous ...
The effect of astrocytes and reactive gliosis on neurogenesis and astrogenesis in mice
(2008-11-10)
Astrocytes are the most common cell type in mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vimentin constitute intermediate filaments (known also as nanofilaments), a part of the ...
GH/IGF-I axis regulation of cardiovascular and neuronal gene expression and function
(2009-08-24)
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality in the Western world. Another important clinical condition is brain damage due to radiation therapy in cancer patients. This has neurological impairments ...
Regulation of postnatal neurogenesis and brain angiogenesis by thyroid hormone
(2009-12-07)
Thyroid hormone (TH), which is secreted by the thyroid gland, exerts significant
effects on the central nervous system (CNS), especially during development, so
that delayed treatment of perinatal hypothyroidism results ...
