Journal ArticleDOI

Role of the two activating domains of the oestrogen receptor in the cell-type and promoter-context dependent agonistic activity of the anti-oestrogen 4-hydroxytamoxifen.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the agonistic effect of OHT on the whole hER is due to the cell‐type and promoter‐context dependent activity of TAF‐1, and it is confirmed that the wild type human oestrogen receptor has no ligand independent transcriptional activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myelin-, reactive glia-, and scar-derived CNS axon growth inhibitors: expression, receptor signaling, and correlation with axon regeneration

TL;DR: Axon regeneration is arrested in the injured central nervous system (CNS) by axon growth-inhibitory ligands expressed in oligodendrocytes/myelin, NG2-glia, and reactive astrocyte in the lesion and degenerating tracts, and by fibroblasts in scar tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

A versatile reducible polycation-based system for efficient delivery of a broad range of nucleic acids

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that HIS RPCs represent a novel and versatile type of vector that can be used for efficient cytoplasmic delivery of a broad range of nucleic acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observations on the astrocyte response to a cerebral stab wound in adult rats

TL;DR: It is proposed that astrocytes respond primarily to the mechanical disruption consequent to injury and that the response promotes the restoration of the structural integrity of the lesioned tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibroblast growth factors promote the survival of adult rat retinal ganglion cells after transection of the optic nerve

TL;DR: Results indicate that FGF has neurotrophic activity in the adult central nervous system, and that this molecule is able to rescue adult retinal ganglion cells from axotomy induced cell death.
