  1. 16. Oxidative stress in experimental traumatic brain injury

    Författare :Mattias Günther; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability among the young population in the industrialized world. The injury consists of immediate damage to the brain tissue, followed by a secondary response involving inflammation and oxidative stress. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Development and Characterization of a Global Brain Ischemia Model in the Mouse -A Genetic and Pharmacological Approach

    Författare :Tomas Olsson; Neuroinflammation; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurofysiologi; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; neuropsychology; Neurology; global; hypothermia; hsp70; receptor; adenosine A1; NMDA; cystatin C; cell death; hippocampus; Brain; ischemia; neurophysiology;

    Sammanfattning : Brain ischemia is a major cause of death and morbidity in the industrialized countries. It is mainly caused by stroke, but may also be the consequence of successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation in victims of cardiac arrest, known as transient global ischemia. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Tectonic History and Present-Day Deformation in the Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt

    Författare :Khaled Hessami; James Jackson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Zagros; Orogeny; Unconformities; Iran; Growth folds; Middel East; Tectonics; Models; GPS; basement; Seismicity; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis uses various approaches such as observation of satellite images, field investigations, analogue modeling and GPS measurements to constrain deformation of the basement and sedimentary cover of the Zagros fold-thrust belt in time and space.Focal mechanism solutions of most earthquakes indicate that deformation in the Zagros basement is due to shortening and thickening through numerous thrust faults.

  5. 19. Transcription factor control in neuronal maintenance and survival

    Författare :Banafsheh Kadkhodaei; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The Transcription factor (TF) Nurr1 is essential for the development of a group of dopamine neurons that are located in the ventral midbrain (also referred to as mesencephalon). A progressive pathology of these midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons is evident in Parkinson s disease, the most frequent neurodegenerative movement disorder. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism in ischemic stroke : multimodal imaging investigations in a clinically relevant rat model

    Författare :Fabian Arnberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Ischemic stroke is also a major cause of long-term disability with vast socioeconomic results for patients, their relatives and health services. LÄS MER
