  1. 1. Receptor Upregulation and MAPK Activity in Arteries and Bronchi Following Secondhand Smoke Exposure

    Författare :Lei Cao; Lund Medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary arteries; cerebral arteries; 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor; endothelin receptor; secondhand smoke exposure; bronchi;

    Sammanfattning : Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Contractile receptor changes have been observed in several vascular diseases. The intracellular mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways are suggested to be associated with receptor upregulation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Mechanical Properties of Arteries : Identification and Application

    Författare :Jan-Lucas Gade; Jonas Stålhand; Carl-Johan Thore; Håkan Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : In this Licentiate of Engineering thesis, a method is proposed that identifies the mechanical properties of arteries in vivo. The mechanical properties of an artery are linked to the development of cardiovascular diseases. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mechanical Properties of Arteries : An In Vivo Parameter Identification Method

    Författare :Jan-Lucas Gade; Jonas Stålhand; Carl-Johan Thore; Stéphane Avril; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : In this dissertation, a method is proposed that identifies the mechanical properties of arteries in vivo. The mechanical properties of an artery are linked to the development of cardiovascular diseases. LÄS MER

  5. 4. 3D Rotational Angiography of Transplanted Renal Arteries : A Clinical and Experimental Study

    Författare :Gaute Hagen; Anders Magnusson; Jonas Wadström; Jarl Jakobsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiology; Kidney; transplantation; renal angiography; renal arteries; stenosis or obstruction; imaging; three-dimensional; artifacts; Radiologisk forskning; Radiological research; Radiologisk forskning;

    Sammanfattning : Three-dimensional rotational angiography (3D-RA) is an established method within the field of interventional neuroradiology. The method has also a great potential in other areas with a complicated arterial anatomy. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Signal Transduction and Gene Regulation in Cerebral Arteries Following Ischemia

    Författare :Petter Vikman; Lund Medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Naturvetenskap; Cardiovascular system; stroke; molecular investigation; gene expression; Mitogen Activated Protein Kinases; Natural science; Kardiovaskulära systemet; cerebral arteries;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis consideres the molecular events that take place in the cerebral arteries following a stroke. The degree and temporal course of reperfusion following a stroke is pivotal for the survival of the neuronal tissue in the penumbra. LÄS MER
