Quantum Dot Probes for Tracking Nerve Growth Factor Ligand-Receptor Dynamics in Live Neurons
The mechanisms by which cell-surface receptors interact with their specific ligands to initiate signaling cascades is a dynamic process which involves ligand-receptor binding, transport, and clearance across and within the cell plasma membrane. Nerve growth [...]
Neuroimaging Distribution of Water Molecules in Brain
Vaganova E., Yitzchaik S., Ovadia H., Borst J.W., Visser A., Sigalov M., Khodorkovsky V., The Hebrew University, IL
We were able to elucidate and build the map of the water molecules distribution in a brain tissue in hippocampus/lateral vetricle area by means of the injected chromophore bis-N-carbazolyl-distyrylbenzene (BND) and FLIM technique. The BND [...]
Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Florid Plaque in variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Diseases
Zubert M., Napieralska M., Napieralski A., Sikorska B., Liberski P., Grams R., Technical University of Lodz, PL
The Alzheimer, BSE , CJD and vCJD diseases belongs to a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterised by an accumulation of extraneuronal filamentous material consisting of β-sheet proteins of various biochemical properties. Clinically, these diseases manifest [...]
