  1. 21. The physiological and microbiological response to renal UPEC infection

    Författare :Keira Melican; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The pathological outcome of a bacterial infection depends on the interplay between the host s defences and the virulence arsenal of the pathogen. Appreciation of this interplay is crucial to the understanding of pathogenesis and the development of efficient clinical treatments. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Physiological Studies of Native and Stem Cell-Derived Islets

    Författare :Daniel Norman; Per-Ola Carlsson; Daniel Espes; Helge Ræder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Irisin; CART; Islet blood flow; Islets of Langerhans; Stem cell-derived islets; Fysiologi; Physiology; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : In type 1 and type 2 diabetes, the β-cells of the islets of Langerhans are either destroyed by the immune system or stressed due to peripheral insulin resistance. To improve the life of patients with these diseases, new treatments are needed. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Physiological role of amyloid precursor protein during neural development

    Författare :Rakesh Kumar Banote; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloid precursor protein; Zebrafish; Spinal cord; Motor neurons; Hindbrain; Mauthner cell; Development; Proteomics;

    Sammanfattning : Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a type-one membrane-spanning protein with a large extracellular N-terminal domain and a small intracellular C-terminal domain. APP first gained interest due to its involvement in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). LÄS MER

  5. 24. Effects of Specific Cochlear Pathologies on the Auditory Functions : Modelling, Simulations and Clinical Implications

    Författare :Amin G. Saremi; Stefan Stenfelt; Steve Elliott; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Auditory modeling; cochlear mechanics; sensorineural hearing impairment; age-related hearing loss; noise-induced hearing loss; inner ear pathologies;

    Sammanfattning : A hearing impairment is primarily diagnosed by measuring the hearing thresholds at a range of auditory frequencies (air-conduction audiometry). Although this clinical procedure is simple, affordable, reliable and fast, it does not offer differential information about origins of the hearing impairment. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Liksom ett par nya ögon. Frithiof Holmgren och synsinnets problematik

    Författare :Jan-Eric Olsén; Avdelningen för idé- och lärdomshistoria; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; history of ideas; History of philosophy; vivisections; colour perception; colour-blindness; the visual organ; the human body; sensations; scientific ideals; industrial technology; Frithiof Holmgren; scientific instruments; physiological experiments; laboratory medicine; physiology; Filosofins historia; idéhistoria; History of science; Vetenskapshistoria;

    Sammanfattning : This study deals with research on the visual organ as pursued in experimental physiology during the latter half of the nineteenth-century. In the 1850's och 60's experimental physiology developed as a new, scientific discipline within the curriculum of western medicine. LÄS MER
