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
Development of visual and somatosensory evoked responses in pre-term newborn infants
TL;DR: In 48 newborns born at 24–42 weeks gestational age computer-averaged visual and somatosensory evoked responses were studied, revealing a close dependence of their variables on cerebral maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical application of evoked electroencephalographic responses in newborn infants. I: Perinatal asphyxia.
TL;DR: In an attempt to achieve wider clinical application, 57 newborn infants with differing degrees of perinatal asphyxia were examined and photostimulation was used and somatosensory evoked responses were also recorded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physiologic effects of surfactant treatment on gas exchange in newborn premature infants with hyaline membrane disease
Robert B. Cotton,Torsten Olsson,Amy B Law,Robert A Parker,Daniel P. Lindstrom,Ants R. Silberberg,Håkan Sundell,Kenneth Sandberg +7 more
TL;DR: Nitrogen clearance index decreased and effective breath fraction increased after treatment, indicating an improved efficiency in gas mixing also thought to result from stabilization and maintenance of patency of distal airways by surfactant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute ethanol exposure induces [Ca2+]i transients, cell swelling and transformation of actin cytoskeleton in astroglial primary cultures
TL;DR: The results presented here suggest that EtOH affects astrocytes in a way that could be of physiological relevance.
