The Many Hats of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in Nervous System Development and Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling occurs concurrently with the many processes that constitute nervous system development. Although Shh is mostly known for its proliferative and morphogenic action through its effects on neural stem cells and progenitors, it ...

Regenerative Medicine for the Aging Brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the central nervous system, cholinergic and dopaminergic (DA) neurons are among the cells most susceptible to the deleterious effects of age. Thus, the basal forebrain cholinergic system is known to undergo moderate neurodegenerative changes during ...

A novel variation in the LMX1B gene with nail-patella syndrome

open access: yesPathology - Research and Practice
Nail-patella syndrome (NPS; OMIM #161200) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by developmental defects in dorsal limb structures, kidneys, and eyes. The incidence of NPS is attributed to variations in the LMX1B gene. In this report, we present a novel LMX1B variation identified in a Chinese family affected by NPS. The proband, a 15-year-old

Electron Microscopic and Immunohistochemical Findings of the Epidermal Basement Membrane in Two Families with Nail-patella Syndrome

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2019
Nail-patella syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by nail dysplasia and skeletal anomaly. Some patients have been shown to have ultrastructural abnormalities of the glomerular basement membrane that result in nephrosis.

Ihmisen mesenkymaalisten kantasolujen erilaistaminen dopaminergisiksi neuroneiksi aivoelektrodimateriaaleilla [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into various cell types depending on their environment, but cannot undergo neurogenesis in normal conditions.

Role of Dmrt5 during development of midbrain dopaminergic progenitors

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis investigates the previously un-described role of Dmrt5, a zinc-finger transcription factor, in ventral midbrain development. The spatio-temporal expression pattern of Dmrt5, described for the first time in this thesis, suggests that Dmrt5 may

Noggin Over-Expressing Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts and MS5 Stromal Cells Enhance Directed Differentiation of Dopaminergic Neurons from Human Embryonic Stem Cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Directed methods for differentiating human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into dopaminergic (DA) precursor cells using stromal cells co-culture systems are already well established. However, not all of the hESCs differentiate into DA precursors using these

Electroacupuncture alleviates inflammatory pain via the activation of GABAergic inhibitory interneurons in mouse spinal dorsal horn

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin
Electroacupuncture (EA), a modern adaptation of traditional acupuncture, has shown promising analgesic effects across various pain models. However, the underlying central mechanisms remain insufficiently characterized.

Progress in Pathogenesis of Proteinuria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2012
Aims. Proteinuria not only is a sign of kidney damage, but also is involved in the progression of renal diseases as an independent pathologic factor. Clinically, glomerular proteinuria is most commonly observed, which relates to structural and functional
