Instead,
glial cells showed large burst of synchronous activity that are widely dispersed across the brain.
In astrocytes and other
glial cells, it is expressed in the cytoplasm, while in astrocytomas it is expressed in the cellular processes rather than the cytoplasm.
We aim to discuss our case with a rare presentation of nasopharyngeal
glial heterotopia to attract attention to the diagnostic workup in children with respiratory obstruction due to a congenital mass in the head and neck.
Since the neuronal CB1 receptors are no longer sufficiently activated, the
glial cells are almost constantly in inflammatory mode.
The resulting serial free-floating sections were then processed for immunohistochemistry using primary antibodies against tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and
glial acidic fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP).
Immunohistochemically it was evaluated as
glial heterotopia with (+)
glial fibrillary acidic protein.
The ganglioglioma was qualified as anaplastic due to increased cellularity, nuclear atypia, and mitotic activity in the
glial component (Figure 2).
large cells with dysmorphic neuronal features without the architectural arrangement or cytological characteristics of cortical neurons) in combination with neoplastic
glial cells" [1].
Glial cells make up a large fraction of human nervous system cells, with numbers exceeding those of neurons by a factor of ten, depending on the brain structure studied.
He will be remembered as a brilliant scientist who transformed our understanding of
glial cells and as a tireless advocate who promoted equity and diversity at every turn," Marc Tessier-Lavigne, PhD, president of Stanford University said in the(http://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2017/12/neuroscientist-ben-barres-dies-at-63.html) press release.
Neoplastic lesions include
glial tumours as the most common type.
We assessed serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF),
glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin (NT)-3, and NT-4/5 in patients with active TR, before and after TR treatment.
