Abstract:

The transformation of an initially uniform population of epiblast cells into an intricately complex central nervous system (CNS) is one of the most fascinating processes during embryonic development. Presumptive neural cells are initially specified as cells of forebrain character. Studies in various vertebrates have indicated that cells of more caudal neural character, that will generate the brain stem and spinal cord, are generated through the reprogramming of these initial rostral cells. The initial regionalization of these neural progenitor cells is central to all further diversification of

Abstract:

A novel technology for the generation of light emitting somatic transgenic animals has been developed using lentiviral vectors where luciferase expression is transcriptionally regulated by tandem, synthetic, transcription factor binding elements. This allows signalling pathways in diseased organs to be monitored continually and consciously and in a non-invasive manner. I was able to confirm my hypothesis that long term somatic transgenesis could be achieved within the CNS after a single neonatal intracranial injection of the biosensors.

Abstract:

Remyelination describes the regeneration of myelin sheaths, and is considered one of the most promising strategies for improving the prognosis of demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis. Data from animal models and human studies have shown that remyelination can occur extensively in the central nervous system (CNS), leading to functional recovery and axonal protection. However, remyelination does not always proceed to completion, and its failure is associated with progressive neurological disability. Thus, there is clinical need for interventions that can optimise the conditions for

Abstract:

The role of astrocytes in the Central Nervous System (CNS) has been increasingly recognized in the last decades. Astrocytes, indeed, not only support neurons but also play a key role in signal transmission in CNS releasing gliotransmitters as glutamate and participating to the tripartite synpases. Here, astrocytes function in signal transmission was modeled using ex-vivo models purified from adult rat brain, named gliosomes. Using the perfusion technique, release from gliosomes was tested in three different contexts: - glutamate release associated to receptor-receptor interactions, - exoso

Abstract:

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system (CNS). It is characterized by the infiltration of immune cells into the brain, leading to myelin destruction and the demise of oligodendrocytes (OLs), the myelinating cells of the CNS. The mechanisms of tissue destruction are still being elucidated. We have looked at the effects of two putative injury mediators on resident CNS glia. Firstly, we investigated the functional consequences of signaling via death receptors Fas, DR4 and DR5 and their ligands Fas ligand (FasL) and tumor necrosis factor related apo

The physiological significance of glutathione (GSH) in the mammalian central nervous system is still uncertain, although some evidence has indicated that GSH may play an important role in the CNS. To address the question of whether GSH may be a candidate for a neuropeptide in the CNS, one step is to establish that GSH receptors are present. In the present study, biotinyl-GSH was synthesized and purified to detect the GSH receptor in the CNS.

Abstract:

In the adult central nervous system (CNS) several factors are implicated in the failure of neurons to regenerate after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, this reduced ability of injured CNS neurons to regenerate can be improved by under certain conditions. For instance, in adult dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, injury to its peripheral branch (unilateral conditioning lesion) prior to injury of its central DRG branch (dorsal column cut) enhances the intrinsic capability of some but not all CNS afferent neurons to regenerate. The exact mechanism mediating this type of response is not known. H

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous pathogen with ability to establish a persistent infection in the host for many years.

The envelope glycoproteins of HCMV (gB, gH, gN, gM, gL and gO) are essential for viral infectivity as they are involved in attachment and penetration of the host cell, cell to cell viral transmission and fusion of infected cells. Also, they are known to be important
