  1. 16. Expression of biomarkers by peripheral nerve fibres in human masseter muscle

    Författare :Abdelrahman Alhilou; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) often manifest as masticatory muscle pain (myalgia). Nerve growth factor (NGF) and glutamate injection into healthy human masseter muscle induced signs and symptoms mimicking those of TMD myalgia and have therefore been suggested as pain models to study the neurobiological mechanisms of this type of chronic pain conditions.

  2. 17. Central and peripheral adaptation after nerve repair with a synthetic biocompatible adhesive

    Författare :Thomas Landegren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The epineural repair technique is currently the accepted standard for peripheral nerve repair. However, due to the demanding nature of this method, it is not uncommon to delay or even omit action, especially in situations which are associated with extensive traumatic injuries. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Nerve fibres in relation to gingiva, tooth germs and teeth in the polyphyodont cichlid Tilapia mariae

    Författare :Fredrik Tuisku; Kaj Fried; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : In the late 19th century Retzius observed the presence of nerve fibres in goldfish tooth pulps. However, later studies on the relationship between the dentition and its innervation in non-mammalian vertebrates and its use in experimental research are rare. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Engineering and Functionalization of Hemicellulose Hydrogels

    Författare :Weifeng Zhao; Karin Odelius; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Ulrica Edlund; Tina Vermonden; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Hemicellulose; O-acetyl-galactoglucomannan; hydrogels; stimuli-responsive; aniline tetramer; aniline pentamer; electro-active; conductivity; pH-sensitivity; magnetic field-responsive; micro-gels; swelling; drug delivery.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Hemicellulose is the second most abundant component in wood and is an important renewable resource  that is used in films, paper composites and biofuels.  Hemicelluloses  have  several  advantages,  including  their abundance,  degradability  and  renewability. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Observations on morphology and function of cutaneous and subcutaneous sensory mechanoreceptors : an experimental study in mammals

    Författare :Birgit Stark; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :mechanoreceptors; somatosensory organisation; blood-nerve barrier; Glucose transporter-1; nerve regeneration; TGF-ß family; neurotrophin receptors;

    Sammanfattning : Tactile sensory discrimination is dependent upon an intact system of peripheral mechanoreceptors, their nerve fibre afferents with cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglion and the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system which relays tactile information from the skin to the cortex. Injury to any part of the afferent pathways leads to compromised mechanoreceptive perception. LÄS MER
