1. Gastrointestinal Permeability and Motility in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Sammanfattning : Synchronized motility, permeability and secretory (hormones and enzymes) events are integral to normal physiology. Smooth muscle syncytium operates with enteric nervous system (ENS) and endocrine signalling to accommodate, mix and control passage of ingested materials. LÄS MER
2. Gastroduodenal epithelial transport in patients with cystic fibrosis
Sammanfattning : Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease where respiratory failure due to chronic lung infection is the major cause of death. A defective protein, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) alters chloride epithelial transport. LÄS MER
3. Gastrointestinal motility and the role of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the relation between gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and gastrointestinal symptoms and dysmotility. In primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS), a patient group with high levels of GnRH antibodies, associations between objective signs and symptoms of autonomic dysfunction (AD), impaired gastric emptying (IGE), and inflammatory and serological features were studied.

4. lnvestigating intestinal smooth muscle dysfunction in the 6-OHDA rat model of Parkinson's disease
Sammanfattning : The neurodegenerative progression of the nigrostriatal pathway in Parkinson’s disease (PD) entails the appearance of motor and nonmotor symptoms. Nonmotor symptoms are common, having a negative impact on the quality of life of patients living with PD. LÄS MER
5. Role of Melatonin, Neuropeptide S and Short Chain Fatty Acids in Regulation of Duodenal Mucosal Barrier Function and Motility
Sammanfattning : The duodenal epithelium is regularly exposed to HCl, digestive enzymes, bacteria and toxins, and sometimes also to ethanol and drugs. The imbalance of aggressive factors in the intestinal lumen and mucosal barrier function increases the risk of tissue injury and inflammation. LÄS MER
