Neuronal apoptosis after brief and prolonged seizures. (2002)

Bengzon, Johan, Mohapel, Paul, Ekdahl, Christine T, Lindvall, Olle

Evidence has accumulated that apoptotic cell death contributes to brain damage following experimental seizures. A substantial number of degenerating neurons within limbic regions display...

Electroconvulsive seizures increase hippocampal neurogenesis after chronic corticosterone treatment. (2002)

Hellsten, Johan, Wennström, Malin, Mohapel, Paul, Ekdahl, Christine T, Bengzon, Johan, Tingström, Anders

Major depression is often associated with elevated glucocorticoid levels. High levels of glucocorticoids reduce neurogenesis in the adult rat hippocampus. Electroconvulsive seizures (ECS) can enhance...

Caspase-mediated death of newly formed neurons in the adult rat dentate gyrus following status epilepticus. (2002)

Ekdahl, Christine T., Mohapel, Paul, Weber, Ekkehard, Bahr, Ben, Blomgren, Klas, Lindvall, Olle

A large proportion of cells that proliferate in the adult dentate gyrus under normal conditions or in response to brain insults exhibit only short-term survival. Here, we sought to determine which...

Inflammation is detrimental for neurogenesis in adult brain

Ekdahl, Christine T., Claasen, Jan-Hendrik, Bonde, Sara, Kokaia, Zaal, Lindvall, Olle

New hippocampal neurons are continuously generated in the adult brain. Here, we demonstrate that lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation, which gives rise to microglia activation in the area where...
