  3. 7. Examining neurobehavioral effects of chemosensory exposure to local irritants using event related potentials

    Författare :Stephanie Anja Juran; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to examine whether unpleasant odors disturb cognitive task performance. At first glance, it seems intuitive that for example the smell of fire smoke would immediately interrupt my current writing at the computer. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Evolution of the G protein-coupled receptor signaling system : Genomic and phylogenetic analyses

    Författare :Arunkumar Krishnan; Helgi Schiöth; Torgeir Hvidsten; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GPCRs; G proteins; Sensory system; Signal transduction; Olfaction; Chemosensation; Hemichordates; Sponges; Porifera; Bilaterians; Holozoans; Fungi; Opisthokonts; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik;

    Sammanfattning : Signal transduction pathways mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and their intracellular coupling partners, the heterotrimeric G proteins, are crucial for several physiological functions in eukaryotes, including humans. This thesis describes a broad genomic survey and extensive comparative phylogenetic analysis of GPCR and G protein families from a wide selection of eukaryotes. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Decoding the language of transmission among vector-pathogen-host

    Författare :Melika Hajkazemian; S. Noushin Emami; Richard Hopkins; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Vector-borne disease; Malaria; Anopheles; Plasmodium falciparum; Zika; Aedes; Vector control strategy; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : Vector-borne diseases account for over 17 percent of all infectious diseases and lead to more than 700,000 mortalities annually. Importantly, there is a complex interaction between infectious organisms and their host. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Pheromones, genes & transcriptomes. A molecular analysis of moth sex pheromone production

    Författare :Maria Strandh; MEMEG; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Female moths emit sex pheromones to lure a mate. In this thesis I examined the transcriptomes of female moth pheromone glands in order to identify genes encoding proteins involved in pheromone production. Two cDNA-libraries were constructed from Agrotis segetum (Noctuidae) pheromone glands and the remaining body tissue, respectively. LÄS MER
