Is there any sharing elements in astrocytes and neurons that may be activated conjointly by oxidative stress processes?

04 April 2013 1 8K Report

We have some confusing results, showing neurons marked with GFAP in brains that underwent processes of oxidative stress. We hypothesized that this may be due to some common elements that are activated by this process in both types of cells.

Dopamine, DOPAC and HVA discrepancy in (unilateral) 6-OHDA lessoned rat. Explanation?

In 6-OHDA lessoned rats, post mortem quantification showed reduced DA and HVA in the lessoned striatum, but no changes in DOPAC. Any ideas why? Thank you very much in advance!

May the lack of RIPA buffer cause the diffuse bands on alpha-tubulin loading control?

Loading small amounts of protein (15ug) I still find diffuse bands in the WB when using alpha-tubulin and I wonder why this could happen.

How to define and get results (stresses) for certain points of a model in abaqus, using python? When the size of the model changes?

I want to do a parameter study of a aixsymmetric cylinder in Abaqus. I want to create several jobs where I get the stresses for 3 different points in my model. These points are defined. I wrote a...

Is it possible for two human neuronal cell lines to have different gene sequence for the same protein?

I am looking at the ATP1A2 (Sodium/Potassium ATPase alpha subunit 2) in two human neuronal cell lines. Expression levels of this protein seems to be almost equal when detected by one antibody....
