  • Behavioral Neurobiology of Huntington's Disease and Parkinson's Disease

    Edited by Hoa Huu Phuc Nguyen, M. Angela Cenci ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Motor dysfunction and cognitive impairment are major symptoms in both Huntington’s Disease (HD) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD). A breakthrough in HD research was the identification of the gene that causes this devastating monogenetic illness. Similarly, several genes were found to cause familial forms of PD. With their identification, a plethora of genetic animal models has been generated and has ... Read more

  • Astrocytes in (Patho)Physiology of the Nervous System

    Edited by Vladimir Parpura, Philip G. Haydon ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Astrocytes were the original neuroglia that Ramón y Cajal visualized in 1913 using a gold sublimate stain. This stain targeted intermediate filaments that we now know consist mainly of glial fibrillary acidic protein, a protein used today as an astrocytic marker. Cajal described the morphological diversity of these cells with some ast- cytes surrounding neurons, while the others are intimately ... Read more

  • Müller Cells in the Healthy and Diseased Retina

    by Andreas Reichenbach, Andreas Bringmann ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Müller cells may be used in the future for novel therapeutic strategies to protect neurons against apoptosis (for example, somatic gene therapy), or to differentiate retinal neurons from Müller/stem cells. Meanwhile, a proper understanding of the gliotic responses of Müller cells in the diseased retina, and of their protective vs. detrimental effects, is essential for the development of efficient ...

    Therapeutic Applications in Disease and Injury

    Edited by M.A. Hayat ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    It is pointed out that a cancer stem cell is a type within a tumor that possesses the capacity of self-renewal and can give rise to the heterogeneous lineages of cancer cells, which comprise the tumor. It is emphasized that a unique feature of cancer stem cells is that, although conventional chemotherapy kills most cells in a tumor, cancer stem cells remain intact. Vast applications of the ...
