6. Prevention of type 1 diabetes mellitus in experimental studies
Sammanfattning : The aim of the study was to examine the immune response and different immunoprotective strategies in experimental type 1 diabetes mellitus. The autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells that leads to type 1 diabetes is complex and incompletely understood. LÄS MER
7. Efficient Algorithms for Probabilistic Inference, Combinatorial Optimization and the Discovery of Causal Structure from Data
Sammanfattning : In the first article we present a network based algorithm for probabilistic inference in an undirected structure. We show that the algorithm can be used as a general purpose approximation algorithm for combinatorial optimization, and discuss issues of approximation and convergence. LÄS MER
8. Serotonin in Fear and Anxiety
Sammanfattning : That the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) has a central role in fear and anxiety is supported by numerous experimental and clinical studies. Arguably the most illustrative example is the effect of serotonergic-acting drugs, and in particular the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), in the treatment of anxiety disorders.

9. Exploration of Conditions Affecting Cytokine Production in Experimental Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Sammanfattning : Cytokines are soluble signalling mediators within the immune system, and have been shown to be of importance in the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D). This thesis studied the production of cytokines in experimental models of T1D and during transplantation of insulin-producing islets of Langerhans. LÄS MER
10. Development of positron emission tomography radioligands for the dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission systems
Sammanfattning : The dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission systems are of central interest in relation to several neuropsychiatric disorders. The main objectives were to develop new suitable radioligands for positron emission tomography (PET) examinations of the dopamine transporter (DAT) as well as the serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A-receptors.
