  1. 11. Effects of prenatal IL-6 exposure and hyperinsulinemia on neuroendocrine regulation

    Författare :Anne-Maj Samuelsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :interleukin-6; intrauterine exposure; HPA-axis; RAS; hippocampus; spatial learning; hypertension; insulin signaling; cardiac hypertrophy;

    Sammanfattning : Prenatal exposure to infection is associated with several neuroendocrine disorders. We therefore wanted to elucidate if cytokines, generated in response to maternal infection, play a key mechanistic role in this associations. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Modulation of the HPA axis alters the sensitivity of the cochlea to acoustic trauma

    Författare :Yeasmin Tahera; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HPA axis; corticosterone; glucocorticoid receptor; NFêB; spiral ganglion neurons; cochlea; acoustic trauma; paraventricular nucleus;

    Sammanfattning : The hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis (HPA axis) regulates nearly all neuroendocrine responses of the body. An active HPA axis is crucial to maintaining homeostasis. An altered reactivity of the HPA axis can affect several physiological systems including the auditory system. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Hypoxia and auto resuscitation in the neonatal rodent with special reference to the sympatho-adrenal system

    Författare :Shi-Zeng Yuan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adrenal medulla; apnea; asphyxia; autoresuscitation; catecholamines; SIDS;

    Sammanfattning : Preterm infants exhibit irregular breathing with frequent episodes of apnea, which may be associated with cyanosis and bradycardia. Perinatal asphyxia causes a considerable amount of morbidity and mortality that occurs during early life. Studies of mechanisms responsible for perinatal asphyxia are therefore very important.

  5. 14. Functional and diagnostic aspects on adrenocortical adenoma

    Författare :Ulla Enberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Adrenocortical tumours are frequently detected due to increased use of imaging techniques like computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound. The majority of the patients have tumours that do not have any overproduction of hormone. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Humoral immunity to recombinant human autoantigens in organ-specific autoimmune disease

    Författare :Alberto Falorni; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :IDDM; Addison s disease; autoantibodies; recombinant autoantigens; radioimmunoassay; disease prediction; glutamic-acid decarboxylase; steroid-21-hydroxylase;

    Sammanfattning : Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and idiopathic Addison's disease are organ-specific autoimmune diseases characterized by the presence of circulating autoantibodies. The role of autoantibodies in the pathogenesis of these diseases is not fully understood, but their presence can be used as a marker for diagnosis and prediction. LÄS MER
