Sentences with phrase «nigra cells»

Salsolinol can create apoptosis in the midbrain, where it — it can actually kill off some of the uhm — substantia nigra cells that produce dopamine — s, of course, you know, chronic yeast issues, severe yeast issues, but could potentially create more neurological issues due to all the toxic by - products.

There were even hints that the cells might be producing growth factors that encourage the remaining substantia nigra cells to sprout new connections.

Not exact matches

These symptoms arise because nerve cells producing the neurotransmitter dopamine, located in an area of the brain known as the substantia nigra, slowly die.

Their analysis focused on the substantia nigra, a brain structure where Parkinson's disease kills neurons that use the chemical dopamine to communicate with other cells.

Last year, the same researchers showed that the trigger came from cells in a structure in the embryonic brain called the floor plate, which dopamine cells brush past while migrating to their eventual home in a part of the brain called the substantia nigra.

Glutamate indirectly activates the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area, which contain cells whose axons release dopamine in the hippocampus.

Parkinson's disease is a slowly progressive disease that affects a small area of cells within the mid-brain known as the substantia nigra.

An adult typically has around half a million dopamine cells in the substantia nigra on each side of the brain.

These symptoms are the result of the loss of specialized cells in an area of the brain called the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) that specialize in producing the chemical signal - molecule dopamine and are responsible for turning off excess firing of neurons that control muscles.

In this work, we transplanted hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells into the substantia nigra of brains of two different mouse models of Parkinson's disease.

In most cases, there was no evidence of dopaminergic cell death in the substantia nigra, with the exception of one of the more recent studies that observed it in a subset of DJ - 1 − / − mice (Rousseaux et al., 2012).

Several mouse models of DJ - 1 deficiency have been developed, but they do not have dopaminergic neuron cell death in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc).

And that's synthesized from Acetaldehyde and can affect the Dopamine - producing cells in the brain, in the midbrain, in the Substantia nigra.

The Acetaldehyde produces a toxin, a neurotoxin called Salsolinol, and that Salsolinol can make its way up to the midbrain, and actually start killing off some of these Dopamine - producing cells in the Substantia nigra.

«The underlying mechanism of cell death in substantia nigra of Parkinson's disease patients remains unknown.

It results from a deterioration of dopamine producing cells in the brain (an area known as substantia nigra).
