  • Cilia and Nervous System Development and Function

    Edited by Kerry L. Tucker, Tamara Caspary ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Cilia are tiny microtubule-based organelles projecting from the plasma membrane of practically all cells in the body. In the past 10 years a flurry of research has indicated a crucial role of this long-neglected organelle in the development and function of the central nervous system. A common theme of these studies is the critical dependency of signal transduction of the Sonic hedgehog, and more ... Read more

  • Neuronal Tissue-Nonspecific Alkaline Phosphatase (TNAP)

    Edited by Caroline Fonta, László Négyessy ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Phosphatases, such as TNAP are fundamental in regulating the roles of cellular, and consequently numerous body functions. TNAP is a ubiquitous enzyme with a wide spectrum of substrates and specificity. Regulation at the cellular level and the lack of TNAP activity is a lethal condition. Recent findings of a highly specific regional, laminar and subcellular localization of TNAP in the cerebral ... Read more

  • Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating Central Nervous System

    Edited by Wolfgang J. Streit ...
    Over the past decade, the study of microglial cells has gained increasing importance, in particular for those working in the fields of degeneration and regeneration. Microglia in the Regenerating and Degenerating CNS supports the assertion that understanding microglial biology could perhaps be pivotal for unraveling the pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie Alzheimer's disease, currently the most ...

  • Oxidative Neural Injury

    Edited by Sigrid C. Veasey ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways ... Read more

  • Gasotransmitters: Physiology and Pathophysiology

    Edited by Anton Hermann, Guzel F. Sitdikova, Thomas M. Weiger ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Since the epochal discovery of the radical and highly toxic gas nitric oxide (NO) as a signaling molecule, two other no less toxic gases – carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) – have been found to also be involved in a plethora of physiological and pathophysiological functions. The gases termed gasotransmitters play an increasingly important role in understanding how signalling into and ... Read more

  • Non-fibrillar Amyloidogenic Protein Assemblies - Common Cytotoxins Underlying Degenerative Diseases

    Edited by Farid Rahimi, Gal Bitan ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Amyloid-forming proteins are implicated in over 30 human diseases. The proteins involved in each disease have unrelated sequences and dissimilar native structures, but they all undergo conformational alterations to form fibrillar polymers. The fibrillar assemblies accumulate progressively into disease-specific lesions in vivo. Substantial evidence suggests these lesions are the end state of ... Read more
