    Sammanfattning : Mammalian melanins are of two major types, eumelanins and peheomelanins, which often occur together, then called mixed-type melanins. A method has been developed for analysing the various forms of melanins. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Stroke is a leading cause of death and long-term neurological deficits worldwide, and no effective treatment is available for the vast majority of the stroke patients. A rapid and persistent activation of multiple and dynamic inflammatory and immune cascades, in and outside the brain, occurs after stroke. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Cancer immunotherapy is the process of stimulating the host's immune system to kill cancer cells, and it is being investigated as adjuvant therapy to traditional cancer treatments such as, surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Two advantages of using immunotherapy are that it employs additional tumor killing strategies, and it often results in modest side effects for patients. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Characterization of Substance P (SP) Aminoterminal SP (1-7) Binding in Brain Regions and Spinal Cord of the Male Rat : Studies on the Interaction with Opioid Related Pathways

    Författare :Milad Botros; Fred Nyberg; Tsukasa Sakurada; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biological research on drug dependence; Biologisk beroendeforskning;

    Sammanfattning : Binding sites for substance P(1-7), SP(1-7) have been identified and characterized for the first time in crude membrane fraction from rat CNS using tritiated ([3H]) SP(1-7) as tracer. These putative receptors were investigated in relation to their affinity for tachykinins, opioid peptides and sigma receptor ligands. LÄS MER
