21. Genetic Variations in the NLRP3 Inflammasome : Susceptibility Factor for Chronic Inflammation
Sammanfattning : NLRP3 has been recognized as one of the key components of innate immunity. Upon activation, NLRP3 forms a multiprotein complex called as the ‘inflammasome’ which leads to the activation of pro-inflammatory caspase-1 which subsequently results in the formation of Interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18.

22. Overlapping Neural Substrates of Alcohol- and Anxiety-Related Behavior in the Rat
Sammanfattning : Alcohol use is a leading cause of death and disease worldwide. A large part of this disease burden is associated with alcohol use disorder (AUD), a diagnostic category characterized by excessive use in spite of negative consequences ("compulsive use"), a loss of control over intake, and choice of alcohol over natural rewards.

23. Tobacco and multiple sclerosis susceptibility
Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that arises from a combination of a complex genetic predisposition and environmental factors. For northern Europeans, the lifetime risk of MS is 1:400, making it the most common non-traumatic cause of disability in young adults. LÄS MER

25. Studies of Thai blood group and platelet polymorphism. Implications for malaria susceptibility
Sammanfattning : The objectives of the thesis were to seek a better understanding of polymorphic RBC surface molecules in the Thai, and to investigate the role of certain blood groups in malarial invasion. MALDI-TOF MS was employed in Study I as an efficient method for genotyping to establish the common blood group and platelet antigen genotypes of 396 blood donors. LÄS MER
