41. Searching for Synergy : Radiosensitization of 177Lu-DOTATATE
Sammanfattning : Cancers presents a major health challenge, and there is a pressing need to develop new therapeutic strategies. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation are the most commonly used treatments for cancer today. Radiation can be given as targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT), i.e. LÄS MER
42. Neuropharmacological studies of Parkinson's disease with some emphasis on serotonin transmission
Sammanfattning : Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by hypokinesia, rigidity, tremor, gait disturbances and depression. There is an accumulative of protein aggregates, Lewy bodies, which appear to begin in the brainstem and progress caudorostrally. LÄS MER
43. Hippocampal galanin and acetylcholine in spatial learning
Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to study how the neuropeptide galanin affects the neurochemistry and functional activity of the cholinergic septohippocampal projection, which plays a pivotal role in learning and memory. This cholinergic system is strongly impaired in Alzheimer's disease and in age-related dementias. LÄS MER
44. Receptor-operated signaling pathways in normal and diabetic pancreatic islet cell function
Sammanfattning : Loss of glucose-dependent insulin release is an early pathogenetic event in human type 2 diabetes. Impaired glucose-mediated insulin secretion from pancreatic islet β-cells leads to insulin deficiency and thus hyperglycemia. LÄS MER
