Neuropeptide regulation of microglial function

Neuropeptide regulation of hormone secretion

The actions of LHRH, CRH and NPY on the activity of the reproductive axis and, in particular, the LHRH pulse generator were investigated in vivo. A model was developed to allow direct administration of neuro¬ peptides, antagonists and antibodies into the third cerebral ventricle of conscious, free-moving and unstressed sheep, giving access to hypo¬ thalamic periventricular structures involved i...

‏‎interpersonal function of language in subtitling

‏‎translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...

Monocytic/Microglial Activation Astrocytic Regulation of Human

Regulation of microglial proliferation during chronic neurodegeneration.

An important component of chronic neurodegenerative diseases is the generation of an innate inflammatory response within the CNS. Microglial and astroglial cells play a key role in the development and maintenance of this inflammatory response, showing enhanced proliferation and activation. We studied the time course and regulation of microglial proliferation, using a mouse model of prion diseas...
