Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the degeneration of dopamineric neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta projecting to the striatum, and by the deposition of cytoplasmic protein inclusions. It is further defined by the persistent presence ...
Delta-like 1 (Dlk1), a member of the Delta/Notch protein family, is expressed in the mouse ventral midbrain (VM) as early as embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5) followed by exclusive expression in tyrosine 3-monooxygenase (TH) positive neurons from E12.5 onwards. T ...
We present in this work a new technique, which combines laser photofragmentation spectroscopy with tandem mass spectrometry, for structural investigations of biomolecular ions in the gas phase. A novel apparatus was designed and built for the implementatio ...
The invention relates to AGT mutants showing, when compared to the wild type human AGT, two or more advantageous properties selected from (a) reduced DNA interaction (b) localisation of the expressed protein in eukaryotic cells that is no longer restricted ...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the progressive degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system. Brain delivery of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has been shown to protect and restore the dopaminergic pathway in vario ...
