Shotgun proteomics (mouse)

https://rdp.sfb274.de/ (Research Data Platform) https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/408885537 (DFG Gepris entry) The central nervous system (CNS) is a terminally differentiated tissue, where any insult carries a heightened risk - yet the tissue response to these insults is variable and can range from irreversible destruction to almost complete recovery. The rules that instruct these divergent outcomes are still unknown. The aim of this CRC is therefore to understand the biology of the multicellular ...

Neuronal loss in acute or chronic brain disease could be treated by neuronal replacement strategies, such as transplantation of young neurons, if they integrate properly into the existing networks. Here we explore the cell-based and molecular mechanisms causing hyperinnervation and overshoot loss of input connectivity as well as the newly discovered hurdle in output connectivity, the lack of myelination. Candidate as well as unbiased approaches are pursued to identify the critical checkpoints and ...

Cell transplantation is a promising approach for the reconstruction of neuronal circuits after brain damage. Transplanted neurons integrate with remarkable specificity into circuitries of the mouse cerebral cortex affected by neuronal ablation. However, it remains unclear how neurons perform in a local environment undergoing reactive gliosis, inflammation, macrophage infiltration, and scar formation, as in traumatic brain injury (TBI). To elucidate this, we transplanted cells from the embryonic ...
