    Sammanfattning : Primary headaches (e.g. migraine and cluster headache), the symptoms of which is associated with cranial vascular activity, is likely to be dependent on a primary central nervous system dysfunction. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Organization of brain circuits that control motivated behaviors

    Sammanfattning : Eudemonia (Greek: εὐδαιμονία) is an anthropocentric term describing the absolute well-being in the Aristotelian ethics, along with the terms “arête” (virtue) and “phronesis” (wisdom from an ethical and practical point of view). Arête and virtue will guide ones decisions to promote future eudemonia and ultimately survival. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Prostaglandin E2 in immune-to-brain signaling

    Författare :David Engblom; Tamas Bartfai; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Upon immune-challenge, signaling from the immune system to the brain triggers an array of central nervous responses that include fever, anorexia, hyperalgesia and activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary adrenal axis. These symptoms are dependent on cytokines produced at the site of inflammation. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Inflammation-Induced Gene Expression in Brain and Adrenal Gland

    Författare :Linda Engström; Anders Blomqvist; Tomas Hökfelt; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The autonomic nervous system serves to maintain a constant inner environment, a process termed homeostasis. Thus, in response to the homeostatic challenge posed by infectious agents, the autonomic nervous system answers to signals from the immune system and elicits adaptive physiological and behavioral reactions.

  7. 10. Central actions of glucagon-like peptide-1 on food intake and reward: Novel neurological targets and sex divergent effects

    Författare :Jennifer E. Richard; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glucagon-like peptide-1; Food reward; Food intake; GLP-1; Sex differences;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is one of the biggest health risks of our society; however, treatment options are sparse and often result in suboptimal weight-loss. The glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor (GLP-1R) agonist liraglutide was recently approved for treatment of obesity in the US. LÄS MER
