Effect of neural ablation of sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SGPL1) in glial cells
(2021-11-24)
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an evolutionarily conserved catabolic intermediate of sphingolipid metabolism that regulates diverse biological processes in the brain, including neural development, differentiation, and ...
Die Phyllosphäre als Lebensraum für Bakterien: Mechanismen der Interaktion epiphyller Bakterien mit der pflanzlichen Kutikula
(2020-12-16)
Die Phyllosphäre stellt einen lebensfeindlichen Lebensraum dar. Jedoch gibt es epiphytisch lebende Bakterien, die diesen Lebensumständen entgegenwirken und Mechanismen entwickelt haben, in diesem kargen Lebensraum Nährstoffe ......
Analyzing the Role of CyFIP2 in the Mouse Brain
(2020-06-19)
An important regulator of neuron outgrowth, growth cone motility and dendritic spine formation is the actin nucleator ARP2/3, a protein complex that functions in forming branched actin networks. ARP2/3 complex activity is ...
Neuroinvasion and cerebral ischemia as possible sources for α-synuclein prions in Parkinson’s disease
(2021-07-13)
In synucleinopathies such as Parkinson’s disease misfolding of α-synuclein, normally a cellular and soluble protein, leads to the accumulation of insoluble protein aggregates and to central nervous system disease (CNS). ...
Implementation of the novel high-throughput Fungal Isolation one step Device method FIND and secondary metabolite extraction from the isolate Heydenia cf. alpina
(2021-07-13)
Fungi are an important source of bioactive metabolites. The cultivation of source organisms is a crucial step in natural product isolation. With standard isolation methods for fungi it is difficult to isolate rare und ...
Function of Reelin Signaling in the Tangential Migration of Dopaminergic Neurons
(2021-01-07)
Midbrain dopaminergic neurons (mDA neurons) are involved in the regulation of voluntary movement, reward behavior and cognitive processes. mDA neurons are born in the floor plate of the ventral midbrain, from where they ...
Functional markers for cerebral norepinephrine deficiency in Alzheimer's disease
(2021-02-17)
Pathological alterations of the locus coeruleus (LC)-norepinephrine (NE) system occur early in the course of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and manifest in poor attention and distractibility. Cortical NE is released from the ...
AHRD: Automatically Annotate Proteins with Human Readable Descriptions and Gene Ontology Terms
(2021-10-05)
In the postgenomic era it is impossible to annotate the majority of new proteins in any other way than with computational methods. Our tool AHRD automatically annotates proteins with human readable descriptions and Gene ...
The effect of Western diet on the transcriptional memory of monocyte-derived cells
(2020-12-11)
Monocytes and monocyte-derived cells are very plastic and versatile immune cells that react to different environmental signals. These signals include not only pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated ...
Structural and functional characterization of the HPV16 entry platform on the cell surface
(2020-12-16)
Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are small, non-enveloped DNA viruses that infect skin and mucosa tissues. Among the family, HPV16 is one of the most oncogenic subtypes responsible for a variety of cancers, including cervical, ...
