Role of c-jun in damage to neonatal central nervous system. (360G-Wellcome-089624_Z_09_Z)
For scientifically qualified assessors (no more than 200 words) The key research goals will be to: (A) determine the full scale of c-Jun effects on white and grey matter damage following hypoxic-ischemic insult and the functional repair, using neural deletion of floxed jun gene with nestin:.cre recombinase (B) explore, whether c-Jun and/or the JNKs are involved in mediating the synergy between infectious and HI stimuli in mediating the neonatal injury (C) indentify, which of the c-Jun expres sing cells (neurons, astrocytes, oligodendroglia and their precursors, or microglia) act as a pacemaker, in mediating c-Jun dependent, HI neonatal brain damage, using cell-type specific promoters for cre recombinase (syn::cre, gfap::cre, plp::cre, mac1::cre). (D) assess, whether these effects require or do not require JNK-dependent Jun phosphorylation using blood-brain permeable JNK inhibitors SP600125 and DJNKI1, AND whether these inhibitors exhibit additional c-Jun independent effects
