  1. 6. A comparative study of estrogen receptors a and b in the female reproductive tract

    Författare :Hong Wang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Estrogens have a pronounced influence on the function of the female reproductive system. The regulation of biological processes by estrogens is mediated via specific intracellular receptors (ERs), ERalpha and ERbeta, which function as regulators of transcriptional activity. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Development of novel immunization approaches to generate immunity in the female genital tract with special reference to genital herpes

    Författare :Sara Tengvall; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :female genital tract immunity; genital herpes; mucosal adjuvant; TLR; MyD88; CpG ODN;

    Sammanfattning : Development of mucosal vaccines for inducing immunity in the female reproductive tract would have profound implications for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. Despite numerous efforts, no such vaccines are currently available for human use. LÄS MER

  4. 8. The use of implants in female pelvic floor reconstructive surgery. Short and long term efficacy and safety

    Författare :Vasileios Alexandridis; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; implants; mid-urethral slings; pelvic floor reconstructive surgery; pelvic organ prolapse; urinary incontinence;

    Sammanfattning : Pelvic floor reconstructive surgery (PFRS) has suffered from high recurrence rates ever since its birth. Implants were thus quickly employed, initially autologous grafts and allografts. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Studies on female genital tract infections and the role of nitric oxide in diagnosis

    Författare :Angelos Sioutas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Female genital tract infections are among the most common conditions causing individuals to seek medical care, and are associated with a high gynaecologic and reproductive morbidity. Thus, prompt and precise diagnosis of genital tract infections is essential to institute effective therapy and prevent sequelae. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Nitric oxide, formation and effects in the urogenital tract

    Författare :Ingrid Ehren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :urinary tract; male reproductive tract; nitric oxide; nitric oxide synthase; NADPH-diaphorase; smooth muscle; secretion; inflammation; sex hormones.STOCKHOLM 1996 ISB;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis was to study the formation and effects of nitric oxide (NO) in the human urinary tract and in the male reproductive organs. In the human upper and lower urinary tract NO synthase activity was studied via the formation of radiolabeled L-citrulline from L-arginine. LÄS MER
