The role of the brain extracellular space in diffusion and cell signalling
(2023-06-22)
The extracellular space (ECS) is a highly complex space consisting of narrow interconnected channels and reservoirs. The ECS substructures are usually few nanometers wide and consequently, they are very difficult to ...
Identifying alterations in RNA metabolism and translation dynamics of oligodendrocytes in Alzheimer's disease
(2023-04-03)
La degeneración de la mielina y la pérdida de sustancia blanca son eventos tempranos en la enfermedad de Alzheimer (EA) que conducen a déficits cognitivos. Uno de los rasgos distintivos de la EA es la presencia de agregados ...
Microglial phagocytosis form development to neurodegenerative diseases
(2021-09-30)
a microglía es el macrófago residente del sistema nervioso central (SNC). Estos centinelas cerebrales "escanean" continuamente el parénquima cerebral con sus procesos delgados, largos y ramificados que ayudan a mantener ...
Cognition, inflammation and related risk factors in suicide attempts
(2022-12-14)
La conducta suicida es un problema de salud global que causa alrededor de 800.000 muertes anuales en el mundo y está asociada a discapacidad y deterioro funcional. De acuerdo al modelo de estrés-diátesis y el enfoque ...
Gliogenesis from the subventricular zone after brain ischemia.
(2022-03-14)
Brain stroke is the second cause of death worldwide. Among the cerebrovascular accidents, ischemic stroke is the most common. It is caused by an interruption of blood flow, and it is characterized by sudden neuronal death ...
Synaptic dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: functional and ultrastructural study of the striatal synapses in an animal model of progressive parkinsonism
(2021-02-26)
This Ph.D. project involves the temporal sequence of the earliest functional and structural events in the striatal synapses in a rat model of progressive parkinsonism induced by overexpression of human ¿-synuclein (h¿-syn) ...
High resolution imaging to unveil the subcellular layout of the cannabinoid type-1 receptor in rodent models of brain disease
(2020-02-28)
The present Thesis focuses on the description of new subcellular localizations of CB1 receptors in normal brain and the study of the CB1 receptor expression in certain pathophysiological states. Different histological ...
Signaling pathwais in oligodentdrocytes to promote myelin remodeling
(2022-03-16)
Oligodendrocytes make myelin and support axons metabolically with lactate. Experience and neuronal activity can induce dynamic changes in myelination during development and in adult life, suggesting a new form of plasticity ...
Expression regulation and comparative interactome study of ANKRD55, a multiple sclerosis risk modulator
(2023-10-06)
La esclerosis múltiple (EM) es una enfermedad neurodegenerativa y autoinmune que a día de hoy no tiene cura. Se trata de una patología compleja que surge por una combinación de factores genéticos y ambientales. El objetivo ...
Characterization of the Isoforms of the Multiple Sclerosis Risk Protein, IL-22 Binding Protein (IL-22BP)
(2021-05-21)
The human IL22RA2 gene co-produces three protein isoforms in dendritic cells (IL-22 binding protein isoform-1 [IL-22BPi1], -2 [IL-22BPi2], and -3 [IL-22BPi3]). Two of these, namely, IL-22BPi2 and IL-22BPi3, are capable of ...
