  1. 11. Subsystems of the basal ganglia and motor infrastructure

    Författare :Iman Kamali Sarvestani; Örjan Ekeberg; Jeanette Hällgren-Kotaleski; Christelle Baunez; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Basal Ganglia; Action Selection; Motor Learning; Tectum; Superior Colliculus; Mesencephalic Locomotor Region; Reticulospinal Neurons; Computational Models;

    Sammanfattning : The motor nervous system is one of the main systems of the body and is our principle means ofbehavior. Some of the most debilitating and wide spread disorders are motor systempathologies. In particular the basal ganglia are complex networks of the brain that control someaspects of movement in all vertebrates. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Diving into the zebrafish locomotor network : A study on dI6 interneurons

    Författare :Ana Belen Iglesias Gonzalez; Henrik Boije; Filippo Del Bene; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; danio rerio; locomotion; dmrt3a; wt1a; calretinin; transcriptome; spinal cord; morphology; dI6 neurons; knock-down out; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The generation and coordination of locomotion comprise of inhibitory and excitatory interneurons that govern motor neuron output to muscles. This neuronal network is known as the central pattern generator (CPG). Spinal inhibitory interneurons that originate from the dI6 population play a crucial role in the coordination of locomotor output. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Chemical circuitry in the visual system of the fruitfly, Drosophila melanogaster

    Författare :Agata Kolodziejczyk; Dick Nässel; Axel Borst; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optic lobe; lamina; neurotransmitters; neuropeptides; tangential neurons; Animal physiology; Zoofysiologi; funktionell zoomorfologi; Functional Zoomorphology;

    Sammanfattning : Signal processing in the visual system is mediated by classic neurotransmission and neuropeptidergic modulatory pathways. In Dipteran insects, especially in the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster, the morphology of the visual system is very well described. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Long-term effects of acupuncture

    Författare :Christer Carlsson; Neurokirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical medicine; stress-induced analgesia.; strong vs gentle stimulation; vomiting; nausea; hyperemesis gravidarum; urine incontinence; C-fibre response; WDR neurons; manual acupuncture; long term effects; pain categories; chronic low back pain; Acupuncture; randomised placebo-controlled trial; kinesitherapy; revalidation; rehabilitation; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; Neurology; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : In a retrospective follow-up study, n=202, long-term pain relief (>6 months) after a course of acupuncture treatments was found mainly among patients with chronic nociceptive pain while patients with neurogenic or psychogenic pain did not benefit much. In a placebo-controlled randomised single-blind long-term study with independent observer of chronic nociceptive low back pain, n=50, it was found that acupuncture, was significantly superior to true placebo in all outcome measurements, even more than 6 months after the treatment series.

  5. 15. Regulation of experimentally induced airway obstruction

    Författare :Eva G. Lindström; Jan Lötvall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :airway obstruction; antigen; capsaicin; epithelium; inflammatory mediators; sensory neurons; tube preparation; tachykinins; formoterol; histamine; presynaptic inhibition; in vitro; guinea pig; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma is one of the commonest diseases in industrialized countries. The cause and mechanisms of !he disorder are still not fully unden;tood, al!hough it is known that inflammation in !he airways plays an important role. Inflammatory mediators, e.g. LÄS MER
