  3. 7. Influence of serotonin-related genes on behavior and body weight

    Författare :Jessica Bah Rösman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Serotonin; Genes; anorexia nervosa; premenstrual dysforia; body weight; suicide; polymorphism; HTR2C; SLC6A4; GATA2; HTR3B;

    Sammanfattning : Rationale: The neurotransmitter serotonin has been implicated in the regulation of normal behaviors, including food intake, and attributed importance for a variety of common psychiatric conditions, including major depression, suicidal behavior, eating disorders and premenstrual dysphoria. The purpose of these studies was to explore the possible influence of genetic variation in serotonin-related genes on a) body weight, b) binding capacity of the serotonin transporter in the brain of suicide attempters and c) a disorder for which numerous findings suggest serotonin to play a key role, i.

  4. 8. Genetiska föreställningar : Mellan genus och gener i populär/vetenskapens visuella kulturer

    Författare :Cecilia Åsberg; Nina Lykke; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; popular science; visual culture; edutainment; the new genetics; genes; genres; gender; ethnicity; sexuality; the genetic imaginary; feminist cultural studies; science as culture; performativity; science and literature studies; naturvetenskap; genetik; massmedia; genus; reproduktion; etnicitet; populärvetenskap; humangenetik; genusaspekter; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates how representations of genes and genetics have given rise to new kinds of cultural imageries created and reflected in popular science media. The concept of popular/science is used here in order to circumvent the traditional diffusion model of science communication, and to focus instead on how popular science media taps into scientific discourse just as scientific representations draw on popular imagery.

  5. 9. Genes, History and Economics

    Författare :Björn Wallace; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : 1. Introduction This dissertation consists of six chapters that span a very diverse set of topics. Yet, it has two unifying themes, economics and biology, that tie it together. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Functional studies of two forkhead genes

    Författare :Mikael Heglind; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :forkhead genes; Foxs1; Foxi1; vacuolar type H -ATPase; boundary cap; neural crest stem cells;

    Sammanfattning : Forkhead genes are functionally diverse and several have been linked to human disease. A previous screen for forkhead genes identified the family member FOXS1. To characterize the function of this gene, we produced a mouse model in which the Foxs1 gene was replaced by a lacZ marker allele. LÄS MER
