16. Neuromodulation via endocannabinoids and nitric oxide in the lamprey spinal cord
Sammanfattning : The overall objective of this thesis is to increase our understanding of neural networks generating locomotion. These networks called Central Pattern Generators (CPG), are localized in the spinal cord and can generate the basic locomotor pattern in the absence of sensory or supraspinal inputs. LÄS MER
17. Mantle cell lymphoma : studies of predictive markers, the role of the microenvironment in disease development and identification of new potential targets for therapy
Sammanfattning : Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive B cell lymphoma and accounts for 5-10 % of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). In Sweden, the incidence of NHL is 21.6 and 15.3 per 100 000 persons for men and women, respectively, which result in almost 100-200 new MCL cases per year. LÄS MER
18. Molecular determinants of endocannabinoid-mediated brain development
Sammanfattning : The enchanting process of brain development entails a fragile and finite time window, throughout which biochemical imbalances and external insults can potentially affect developing neuronal circuits. Within the numerous exquisitely orchestrated events taking place in the foetal brain, axonal pathfinding is of paramount importance. LÄS MER
19. Cannabinoids as modulators of cancer cell viability, neuronal differentiation, and embryonal development
Sammanfattning : Cannabinoids (CBs) are compounds that activate the CB1 and CB2 receptors. CB receptors mediate many different physiological functions, and cannabinoids have been reported to decrease tumor cell viability, proliferation, migration, as well as to modulate metastasis. LÄS MER
20. Biosynthesis and physiological functions of N-acyl amino acids
Sammanfattning : N-acyl amino acids are lipid signalling molecules that have recently been identified in biological systems. These lipids are structurally related to the endocannabinoids, although they do not activate cannabinoid receptors. LÄS MER
