Papel das reservas intracelulares de cálcio no efeito de aminoácidos excitatórios sobre a fosforilação da proteína ácida fibrilar glial (GFAP) em hipocampo de ratos jovens
A proteína ácida fibrilar glial (GFAP) é uma proteína da classe dos filamentos intermediários, exclusivamente expressa em astrócitos no sistema nervoso central (SNC). A função específica da fosforilação desta proteína é ainda desconhecida. No entanto, tem sido demonstrado que o equilíbrio dinâmico …

Investigation of aspects of reactive gliosis in human astrocytoma cell lines:application for toxicity assessment
… specific glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is a hallmark of reactive gliosis and is widely used as a marker to identify the response. In order to develop a reliable, sensitive and high throughput astrocyte toxicity assay that is more relevant to the human response than existing animal …

Enteric and hepatic glia-like cell reactivation after astrocyte-directed twinkle helicase loss
… is created by using a glial fibrillary acid (GFAP) promoter, driving a Cre recombinase that together with LoxP sequences leads to a knockout of the twinkle gene in the cells expressing GFAP. In this thesis I studied whether the astrocytic twinkle gene knockout (TwKOastro) affects non-nervous …

The effect of weight loss on circulating biomarkers of brain health and executive function
… B (S100B), and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Serum samples (n=21; 50-75 years, BMI 25-40 kg/m2) were pooled from two prior weight loss studies. Fasting blood measurements were taken before and after 8- or 12-weeks of hypocaloric diet-induced weight loss (1200 or 1500 kcal/d). Body Mass …

Pharmacological inhibition of CK2: the effect of an FDA designated orphan drug on pathology, neuroinflammation, and glial phenotypes in Huntington’s disease
… Additionally, we explored the unknown role of GFAP+ astrocytes in the striatum, which cluster around white matter fascicles originating from the secondary motor cortex (M2). The M2-striatum pathway is involved in motivation and degeneration in HD can lead to apathy, one of the major psychiatric …

Die Rolle von CNTF und LIF bei glialen Reaktionen nach Läsion des Nervus opticus
… Während unoperierte CNTF-/--Tiere eine geringere GFAP-Expression der Müllerzellen zeigen, kommt es nach Läsion genau wie im Wildtyp zu einer Aktivierung der Müllerzellen. Weiterhin wird in CNTF-/-- und Wildtyp-Tieren der STAT3-Signalweg aktiviert. Auch Mikrogliazellen werden in CNTF-/-- und …

The Role of Astrocyte Activation in Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis
… upregulation of glial fibrillary acidic protein: GFAP), a marker of astrocyte activation, in the thalamus, cortex, and cerebellum. Focal regions of GFAP upregulation were an accurate predictor of future sites of neuronal loss. Since astrocyte activation is both helpful and harmful to an injured …

Adeno-Associated Mediated Transduction of Sensory Epithelia Within the Guinea Pig Cochlea
… cells while the glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter drove expression in the non-sensory support cells. This in vivo study was designed to determine if these results might be recapitulated in the guinea pig model and was conducted in three separate phases. In Study 1, guinea pigs were …
