1. Cardiac effects of non-adrenergic inotropic drugs : clinical and experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Myocardial failure and dysfunction is not uncommon during critical illness and following cardiac surgery. For optimal treatment, a better understanding of the effects of inotropic drugs is needed. In this thesis, two non-adrenergic mediated inotropes, milrinone and levosimendan were studied in different models of myocardial dysfunction. LÄS MER
2. Neuromuscular function in the normal and inflamed colon. An experimental study in rat
Sammanfattning : Neuromuscular function of the longitudinal muscle layer of distal colon was investigated in segments from normal rats and from rats with colitis induced by dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) at 3% for 3 or 7 days or 5% for 7 days. The study was performed in vitro, on spontaneous tone, or after precontraction. LÄS MER
3. Secretory and anti-inflammatory actions of some gastro-intestinal hormones in salivary glands
Sammanfattning : Textbooks generally state that the secretory activity of salivary glands is solely regulated by nerves. This view is challenged in the present Thesis, using the parotid gland of the anaesthetized rat as experimental in vivo model. LÄS MER
4. On the Autonomic Control of Blood Flow and Secretion in Salivary Glands. Functional and morphological aspects on muscarinic receptor subtypes in different species
Sammanfattning : Parasympathetic nervous activity is the principal stimulus for evoking fluid responses within salivary glands. Concomitantly to the onset of this response, the blood flow increases. LÄS MER
