16. Galanin : Studies by Modification of the Ligand and the Receptor
Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to the deeper understanding of the molecular details of the interaction between the neuropeptide galanin and its target protein, the G-protein coupled 7TM galanin receptor. The enzymatic control of galanin degradation and second messenger systems triggered by galanin receptor activation are also studied. LÄS MER
17. Increasing the interpretability of Alzheimer-related biomarkers: cell- and cerebrospinal fluid-based studies with focus on neurogranin
Sammanfattning : Biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a growing field of research. A particularly vibrant field during recent years has been biomarkers for synaptic dysfunction. LÄS MER
18. Opioids in the management of pain during delivery
Sammanfattning : Labour and delivery involve severe pain for most women. The goal for pain treatment in obstetrics is to provide effective and safe analgesia during all phases of delivery. The ideal method for pain relief during delivery is not yet available. LÄS MER
19. Analysis of new biomarkers and their kinetics in connection with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary intervention
Sammanfattning : This thesis studies different biomarkers in a cohort of patients suffering from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Örebro in 2011-2012. Blood samples were collected at three time points, at the arrival at the hospital, 1-3 days after PCI and for a smaller group of patients also 3 months after PCI. LÄS MER
20. Studies on the level of substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide in cerebrospinal fluid of pregnant women and patients with chronic pain and in rat brain after spinal cord injury : Special reference to analytical aspects of neuropeptides
Sammanfattning : Substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are sensory peptides known to be involved innociception and inflammatory processes. It is well demonstrated that the two peptides can be released from spinal cord neurons during inflammation and chronic pain induced by peripheral nerve injury. LÄS MER
