  1. 1. Adapt, Survive or Die - Metabolic Imbalances and the Enteric Nervous System

    Författare :Ulrikke Voss; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; enteric nervous system; high fat diet; neuropathy; neuroplasticity; metabolic imbalance;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: In this thesis the questions “do enteric neurons adapt to survive in conditions of obesity/type 2-diabetes (T2D) related metabolic imbalances? Or do they die?” are asked. Obese and T2D patients have high rates of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Cell renewal : terms and conditions may apply

    Författare :Pedro Réu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The longevity and turnover of the different constituent cells of an organism define its development, size, health, and biological age. The present thesis discusses the renewal rates and functions of cells in several organs and tissues: peripheral blood, bone marrow, intestine and central nervous system. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Somatosensory Circuits in the Central Nervous System

    Författare :Hannah M. Weman; Malin C. Lagerström; Sarah E. Ross; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glycine receptor alpha 3; urocortin 3; vesicular monoaminergic transporter 2; nociception; pruriception; spinal cord; somatosensory cortex; DREADD; rabies tracing; transcriptomics; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Spinal glycinergic neurons prevent spontaneous sensations of pain and itch, and development of persistent pain and itch conditions. The glycine receptor alpha 3 subunit (GLRA3) is suggested to be involved in certain inflammatory models, but not in acute nociception. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Congenital and Childhood Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 - the impact on central nervous system, visual and motor function

    Författare :Anne-Berit Ekström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :myotonic dystrophy type 1; children; muscle strength; motor function; autism spectrum conditions; learning disability; adaptive skills; visual impairment; hyperopia;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal dominant multisystemic disorder, caused by an expanded CTG repeat on chromosome 19. The disorder can present both in children and adults. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Identification of disease genes in rare neurological conditions

    Författare :Martin Engvall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about improving diagnosis and treatment to persons affected by rare diseases. Diagnosis before treatment is a principle often told to medical students. LÄS MER
