Sentences with word «astrogliosis»

Dr. Goldberg's lab will conduct more research to examine the effects of astrogliosis in stroke and spinal cord injuries.

The study published in Cell Reports found that the LZK gene of astrocytes can be turned on to prompt a recovery response called astrogliosis, in which these star - shaped cells proliferate around injured neurons and form a scar.

To determine this, we chose to examine the SNpc for astrogliosis as indicated by increased GFAP immunoreactivity.

According to the research, micro-tumor cells hijack astrogliosis, the brain's natural response to damage or injury, to support metastatic growth.

«At the earliest stages of metastasis, we already see astrogliosis and inflammation.

For example, hGDAsBMP express higher levels of such astrocyte - related genes as glutamate transporter 1, connexin 43, and AKAP12, which are relevant to maintaining tissue homeostasis in the CNS as well as reducing astrogliosis and neuronal death after injury, mediating glutamate uptake and promoting blood - brain barrier formation [23], [24], [58]--[61].

She's been working on brain neurons and a process call astrogliosis, which is something you'll need to Google just to figure out what it is.

Overexpressing the gene in uninjured mice also activated the astrocytes, confirming LZK as a trigger for astrogliosis.

Finally, we did not observe any changes in the amount of GFAP - positive astrocytes in the SNpc of these mice, indicative of a lack of astrogliosis.

S100B released by astroglial cells promotes harmful astroglial activation (astrogliosis) and adversely affects neurons, causing them to die at increased rates or develop in multiple dysfunctional ways.

When administered intraperitoneally to PDGF - AS mice, this conjugate reduced AS neuropathology, neuronal loss, astrogliosis, and behavioral deficits in the water maze.

We report that immunization of the young animals essentially prevented the development of beta - amyloid - plaque formation, neuritic dystrophy and astrogliosis.
