    Death Receptor Regulates Brain Regeneration

    The so-called death receptor is well known among experts – it induces programmed cell death. In brain stem cells, however, this molecule has an entirely different function, as shown by scientists of the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) in an article published in CELL Stem Cell. Here, signals to the death receptor cause the formation of new nerve cells (neurons). When the researchers switched off the receptor…

    Biomarkers help predict the risk of Alzheimer’s in patients with mild cognitive impairment

    A large multicentre study has shown that CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) biomarkers can be used to predict, with good accuracy, as to which patients with mild cognitive impairments will develop Alzheimer’s disease. The biomarkers used are microtubule-associated proteins that are abundant in CNS neurons as well as beta amyloid, which is a peptide that forms brain plaques in people with Alzheimer’s disease. Changes in the concentrations of these proteins…

    Hirschsprung’s disease: research into the biological and clinical principles of stem cell therapy

    Hirschsprung’s disease is a congenital disease of the intestinal nervous system, which can lead to life-threatening bowel disorders. A new research project, which is being coordinated by the Centre for Regenerative Biology and Medicine (ZRM) in Tübingen, is paving the way for a novel cell therapy. The project is being carried out in co-operation with the NMI in Reutlingen and is being funded by a 1.1-million-euro BMBF-grant.

    More targeted treatment of the brain network

    “Casting out the demons with the ruler of the demons” – is what the majority of neuroactive drugs still do. A group under the leadership of Dr. Ralf Meyer at the University Medical Centre in Freiburg is investigating why substances used to treat epilepsy or depression have a negative effect on many patients. Their research shows that the drugs interact with the hormonal system, resulting in undesired side effects. Meyer and his team of…

    Can loss of sense of smell predict Alzheimer’s

    The first lapses of memory go hand in hand with a loss of the sense of smell: The olfactory centre in the brain of Alzheimer’s patients is wasting away. The olfactory bulb starts to shrink at a very early stage of the disease, at a time when retentiveness is only slightly affected. It is possible to detect the shrinkage of the olfactory bulb with magnetic resonance imaging, as the latest findings by scientists of the Department of Psychiatry at…

    Stefan Rotter – linking theory and experimentation in neurology

    Neurobiology and mathematics are two different worlds with two completely different languages. However the two disciplines have come together in research into the brain. While neurologists hope to unveil the brains secrets through measurements mathematicians are using formulas and theoretical models to describe brain functions. Stefan Rotter from the Bernstein Centre for Computational Neuroscience BCCN in Freiburg speaks the language of both…

    Genes and epigenetic mechanisms

    The different cell types in a multicellular organism contain the same genome but differ from each other dramatically in both function and structure nerve cells kidney cells etc.. The differentiation of the cells is linked to the identity of their precursors. This then raises the question If the cells destiny is not encoded in the DNA how do they know what to become?

    Study: nutritional and dietary treatments for ADHD

    Doctors and researchers have been at odds for many years as to whether long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids have an effect on the behaviour and cognition of ADHD children. It is hoped that a study at Ulm University will bring more clarity to the debate and potentially come up with an alternative to the controversial psychostimulant therapy.

    Cannabinoids - important for memory?

    Cannabis intoxication is certainly not the original purpose of the cannabinoid receptors in the human brain. Nowadays there are known body substances which dock to the receptor molecules of nerve cells in a similar way to cannabis. A group of researchers led by pharmacologist Prof. Dr. med. Bela Szabo at the University of Freiburg is investigating the role of this molecular system in the human brain.
