Systemic Hypoxia Effect on Rat Brain Malondialdehyde, Glial FibrillaryAcidic Protein, and Acetylcholine Esterase Activity [PDF]
Sistemic hypoxia causes lack of oxygen and energy in brain that trigger the release of acetylcholine,free radical and Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a specific protein in astrocyte cells that act to strenghtenastrocite membrane.

Genetic background affects human glial fibrillary acidic protein promoter activity. [PDF]
The human glial fibrillary acidic protein (hGFAP) promoter has been used to generate numerous transgenic mouse lines, which has facilitated the analysis of astrocyte function in health and disease.

Loss of Immunohistochemical Reactivity in Association With Handling-Induced Dark Neurons in Mouse Brains. [PDF]
The handling-induced dark neuron is a histological artifact observed in brain samples handled before fixation with aldehydes. To explore associations between dark neurons and immunohistochemical alterations in mouse brains, we examined protein products ...

Abnormal white matter tracts resembling pencil fibers involving prefrontal cortex (Brodmann area 47) in autism: a case report. [PDF]
BackgroundAutism is not correlated with any neuropathological hallmark as the brain of autistic individuals lack defined lesions. However, previous investigations have reported cortical heterotopias and local distortion of the cytoarchitecture of the ...

Abnormal evoked potentials in autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy
Autoimmune GFAP astrocytopathy is a new clinical entity and only a limited number of cases have been reported. Here we report the results of multimodal central conduction studies performed in a case of this disorder.A 72-year-old woman developed gradual ...

Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) regulates multipotent neural progenitor proliferation. [PDF]
Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) was previously identified in a screen for genes enriched in neural progenitors. Here, we demonstrate expression of MELK by progenitors in developing and adult brain and that MELK serves as a marker for self-
