The project examines mechanisms of possible protection of neurons against ischemic &#8211; reperfusion injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Demonstration of \u03b1-synuclein pathology in colonic biopsies as potential premotor biomarker of Parkinson\u00b4s disease serves as a model for testing this hypothesis in our last project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the scope of the above research objectives, we have introduced new methods of immunohistochemistry and molecular biology for monitoring histopathological changes and gene expression in the small intestine, in parenchymal organs, and in the nerve tissue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Notices<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/GM-Summer-terms-for-final-exam-HE2-2025-26-2.pdf\">GM Summer terms for final exam HE2 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/04\/DM-Terms-for-final-exam-HE2-2025-26-2.pdf\">DM Terms for final exam HE2 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/02\/GM-NEW-Terms-for-final-exam-HE2-2025-26.pdf\">GM NEW Terms for final exam HE2 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2026\/01\/DM-Semestral-test-2.-retake-term-1.pdf\">DM Semestral test &#8211; 2. retake term<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/12\/GM-NEW-Instructions-for-the-HE2-Final-exam-2025-26-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GM NEW Instructions for the HE2 Final exam 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/12\/DM-Semestral-test-1.-retake-term-1.pdf\">DM Semestral test &#8211; 1. retake term<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/12\/GM-Terms-for-HE2-Final-exam-WS-2025-26.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GM Terms for HE2 Final exam WS 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/12\/DM-NEW-Terms-for-HE2-Final-exam-WS-2025-26.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DM NEW Terms for HE2 Final exam WS 2025-26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/09\/DM-NEW-term-for-Final-Exam-2025_26-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DM NEW term for Final Exam 2025_26<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/09\/DM-NEW-Instructions-for-the-HE2-Final-exam-2025_26.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DM NEW Instructions for the HE2 Final exam 2025_26<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":29726,"parent":0,"menu_order":5,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":1,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"tax_aktuality":[],"class_list":["post-59633","cpt_ustav","type-cpt_ustav","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"acf_link_na_externy_obsah":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Department of Histology and Embryology - Lek\u00e1rska fakulta | UPJ\u0160<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.upjs.sk\/lekarska-fakulta\/en\/department\/histology-and-embryology\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Department of Histology and Embryology - Lek\u00e1rska fakulta | UPJ\u0160\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u0160rob\u00e1rova 2, 041 80 Ko\u0161ice The staff of the Department of Histology and Embryology contribute to the teaching of Histology and Embryology for the bachelor, doctoral and PhD students of the Faculty of Medicine in both Slovak and English languages.
