    Sammanfattning : The intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesion model in rats is particularly useful in studies testing new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson’s disease. This thesis work (1) describes the characterization of the motor deficits after different types of intrastriatal lesions and identifies the four-site terminal lesion as a model of symptomatic Parkinson’s disease; (2) using the same model, provides evidence that the functional impact of the dopamine cell grafts are dependent on interactions with the host brain; (3) demonstrates that protection or restitution of normal motor function after 6-hydroxydopamine lesions can be achieved if glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor is administered in the striatum at the time of the terminal fiber degeneration.

  4. 8. 12-14 week scan with emphasis on risk assessment for fetal structural malformations and fetal loss

    Författare :Maria-Dorothea Westin; gynekologisk och prenatal ultraljudsdiagnostik Obstetrisk; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obstetrik; gynekologi; andrologi; reproduktion; sexualitet; reproduction; sexuality; Obstetrics; gynaecology; andrology; Miscarriage; Malformation; Congenital cardiac defect; Nuchal translucency; Prenatal diagnosis; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Risk assessment;

    Sammanfattning : The aim was to evaluate first trimester nuchal translucency (NT) measurement for detection and risk assessment of fetal malformations and fetal loss. 39 572 pregnant women were randomised to either a routine ultrasound scan at 12-14 weeks including NT measurement or to a routine scan at 18-20 weeks.

  5. 9. Human Fetal Hemoglobin : Biochemical Characterization and Recombinant Production

    Författare :Khuanpiroon Ratanasopa; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Blood substitutes; HBOCs; HbF; recombinant hemoglobin; pseudoperoxidase; ITC; haptoglobin;

    Sammanfattning : Blood transfusion is a common medical procedure when oxygen supply in the body is impaired. However, blood transfusion is not always without risks. The uncontrolled spreading of blood borne pathogens such as HIV or hepatitis B and C virus has urged researchers to look for “blood substitutes”. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Health consequences of adverse fetal growth : studies in twins

    Författare :Sara Öberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Findings of associations between birth weight and adult health outcomes have been taken to indicate that fetal growth – and fetal nutrition in particular – may program future health and disease in the developing individual. However, the study of prenatal exposures in humans is challenging, and most of the evidence to support fetal programming thus rests on proxy measures, such as birth weight and birth weight for gestational age.
