  1. 21. Pain-related sodium channels in sensory neurons : gene expression during development and after injury

    Författare :Jonas Thun; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Pain that goes on over years as a result of nerve damage is an affliction which disables millions of people worldwide. Chronic injury-induced pain can become severely debilitating and extremely difficult to treat. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Interaction of sensory and motor signals in the basal ganglia in health and disease

    Författare :Mohammadreza Mohagheghi Nejad; Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski; Robert Schmidt; Arthur Leblois; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : The basal ganglia, a set of deep forebrain nuclei, are among the brain regions involved in movement initiation and suppression. Although many studies have investigated the neural coding underlying these two aspects of movement, there are still questions that need to be addressed. LÄS MER

  4. 23. An exploration of the mechanisms behind peripheral nerve injury

    Författare :Rebecca Wiberg; Liudmila Novikova; Paul Kingham; Ash Mosahebi; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Peripheral nerve injury; target organ; spinal motoneurons; primary sensory neurons; degeneration; anatomi; Human Anatomy;

    Sammanfattning : Despite surgical innovation, the sensory and motor outcome after peripheral nerve injury is incomplete. In this thesis, the biological pathways potentially responsible for the poor functional recoveries were investigated in both the distal nerve stump/target organ, spinal motoneurons and dorsal root ganglia (DRG).

  5. 24. Olfactory genomics of bark- and ambrosia beetles : Evolution and function of chemoreceptors

    Författare :Twinkle Biswas; Feromongruppen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Curculionidae; functional characterisation; odorant receptors ORs ; gustatory receptors; ionotropic receptors; orthologues; paralogues; olfactory sensory neurons; OR-ligand interaction;

    Sammanfattning : Insect behaviours, such as host and mate selection, are often mediated by chemical cues. The chemical cuesare detected by large and rapidly evolving families of chemoreceptors which include odorant receptors (ORs),gustatory receptors (GRs) and ionotropic receptors (IRs). LÄS MER

  7. 25. Stem cell in-vitro strategies for the induction of sensory neurons for inner ear cell therapy

    Författare :Rouknuddin Qasim Ali; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The cochlea, a part of the auditory system, is a complex structure consisting of several different types of cells including hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons. In mammals, the regenerative potential of hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons is lost soon after the birth and damage to any of these cells causes sensorineural hearing loss. LÄS MER
