16. Towards the Visualization of Multivariate Biochemical Networks
Sammanfattning : Many open challenges exist when dealing with different biological networks. They are crucial for the understanding of living beings. Complete drawings of these typically large networks usually suffer from clutter and visual overload. In order to overcome this issue, the networks are divided into single, hierarchically structured pathways. LÄS MER
17. Retinoid processing in vivo : characterization and structure-function analysis of retinol dehydrogenases
Sammanfattning : Retinoids (vitamin A derivatives) are vital nutrients that regulate a variety of physiological processes, including embryonic development, postnatal growth, reproduction, cell differentiation as well as maintenance of the immune system and vision. Most of the physiological functions of retinoids are believed to be controlled by retinoic acid (RA) altered gene expression via two classes of nuclear hormone receptors, the RARs and RXRs. LÄS MER
18. Studies into The Mechanisms of Neurodegeneration and Neuroprotection in Rd1 Mouse Retina
Sammanfattning : Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) is a group of uncured retinal diseases with the world wide incidence of about 1/3500. In spite of the huge efforts in past years, the mechanisms underlying this type of hereditary blindness has not been elucidated and nor any effective treatment available. LÄS MER
19. Brain Structure and Function in Adolescents with Atypical Anorexia Nervosa
Sammanfattning : Atypical anorexia nervosa (AAN) has a high incidence in adolescents, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. The weight loss is generally less pronounced than that experienced in full-syndrome anorexia nervosa (AN), but the medical consequences can be as severe. LÄS MER
20. Innate and Conditioned Fear : Investigating Responses to Threat using Psychophysiology, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Twin Methodology
Sammanfattning : Evolution has shaped systems in the human brain to respond to danger. Some of these systems are innate or hard-wired, while others are learned throughout the entire life span. One commonly studied type of learned threat, conditioned fear, is acquired from experiencing aversive consequences. LÄS MER
