Journal ArticleDOI
Aspects of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-I related to neuroprotection, regeneration, and functional plasticity in the adult brain.
TL;DR: IGF-I functions as a putative regenerative agent in the adult CNS and is found to increase progenitor cell proliferation and new neurons, oligodendrocytes, and blood vessels in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular fitness is associated with cognition in young adulthood.
Maria A I Åberg,Nancy L. Pedersen,Kjell Torén,Magnus Svartengren,Björn Bäckstrand,Tommy Johnsson,Christiana M. Cooper-Kuhn,N. David Åberg,Michael Nilsson,H. Georg Kuhn +9 more
TL;DR: The data substantiate that physical exercise could be an important instrument for public health initiatives to optimize educational achievements, cognitive performance, as well as disease prevention at the society level.
Journal ArticleDOI
IGF-I has a direct proliferative effect in adult hippocampal progenitor cells
Maria A I Åberg,N. David Åberg,Theo D. Palmer,Ann-Marie Alborn,Christine Carlsson-Skwirut,Peter Bang,Lars Rosengren,Torsten Olsson,Fred H. Gage,Peter S. Eriksson +9 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the potential direct effects of insulin-like growth factor-I on adult rat hippocampal stem/progenitor cells (AHPs) showed a dose-dependent increase in thymidine incorporation, total number of cells, and number of Cells entering the mitosis phase, and specific inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K), or the downstream effector of the PI
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular fitness in males at age 18 and risk of serious depression in adulthood: Swedish prospective population-based study
Maria A I Åberg,Margda Waern,Jenny Nyberg,Nancy L. Pedersen,Ylva Bergh,N. David Åberg,Michael Nilsson,H. Georg Kuhn,Kjell Torén +8 more
TL;DR: Lower cardiovascular fitness at age 18 was associated with increased risk of serious depression in adulthood, and the theory of a cardiovascular contribution to the aetiology of depression is strengthened.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low Circulating Acute Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Levels Are Associated With Poor Long-Term Functional Outcome After Ischemic Stroke
Tara M. Stanne,N. David Åberg,Staffan Nilsson,Katarina Jood,Christian Blomstrand,Ulf Andreasson,Kaj Blennow,Henrik Zetterberg,Jörgen Isgaard,Johan Svensson,Christina Jern +10 more
TL;DR: Circulating concentrations of BDNF protein are lowered in the acute phase of ischemic stroke, and low levels are associated with poor long-term functional outcome.
