  1. 1. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder in relation to neuroactive steroids and alcohol

    Författare :Sigrid Nyberg; Britth-Marie Landgren; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :premenstrual dysphoric disorder; GnRH-agonist; progesterone; allopregnanolone; alcohol; saccadic eye velocity; obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a condition that affects about 2-6% of women of reproductive age. The relation to ovarian steroids is apparent as symptoms are absent during anovulatory cycles. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Role of Toll-like receptors in airway inflammation

    Författare :Anne Månsson; Klinisk och experimentell allergiforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lymphocytes; peripheral blood; allergic rhinitis; tonsils; eosinophils; specific allergen immunotherapy;

    Sammanfattning : Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are germline-encoded pathogen-recognition receptors that detect different microbial structures and activate the immune system. The human TLR family presently comprises ten members (TLR1-TLR10), each with distinct properties. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cholecystokinin, dopamine and glutamate in subcortical and peripheral control of food intake

    Författare :Min Qian; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :cholecystokinin; dopamine; glutamate; food intake;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis analyzes some of the mechanisms whereby cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) inhibits food intake in male rats. Depletion of monoamines using reserpine blocked the capacity for ingestive responses. These responses were restored in reserpinized rats by treatment with the non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist MK-801. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Toll-like Receptors in Allergic Rhinitis

    Författare :Mattias Fransson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neutrophils; poly I:C ; uteroglobin; Toll-like receptors; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; Otorhinolaryngology; audiology; auditive system and speech; Otorinolaryngologi; audiologi; hörsel- och talorganen; innate immunity; LPS; allergic rhinitis; bone marrow;

    Sammanfattning : Allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory disorder with the characteristic symptoms itching, sneezing, secretion and blockage upon allergen contact. In addition to the local inflammation in the nose, there is a systemic component that influences peripheral blood, bone marrow and lungs. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Airway hyperresponsiveness and viral recognizing toll-like receptors

    Författare :Magnus Starkhammar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Common colds caused by viruses are, in healthy individuals, usually self-limited and with relatively mild symptoms. In asthmatic individuals, respiratory viruses can burst the defense immune system and trigger asthma exacerbations, including causing airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). LÄS MER
