    Sammanfattning : Many forms of immune system dysregulation are linked to psychiatric disorders. This thesis examines specific types of immune dysregulation in broad cohorts with psychiatric disease. The first section focuses on adipokines and other immunometabolic biomarkers and their interaction with state vs. trait symptoms. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Melatonin and its receptors in the normal human gastrointestinal tract, pancreas and in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours
