  1. 1. Molecular factors influencing nerve growth : studies on the developing rodent trigeminal ganglion and tooth pulp

    Författare :Christina Lillesaar; Ted Ebendal; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The adult tooth pulp has a rich protective sensory innervation from the trigeminal ganglion (TG). The developmental establishment of this exclusively nociceptive innervation is not fully understood today. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Structure and function of trigeminal primary sensory neurons after peripheral nerve injury

    Författare :Ulf Bongenhielm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :ankyrinG; chronic constriction injury; electron microscopy; electrophysiology; hyperexcitability; immunocytochemistry; inferior alveolar nerve; in situ hybridisation; nerve injury; neuroma; SNS PN3; sodium channel; trigeminal ganglion;

    Sammanfattning : Iatrogenic injuries to branches of the trigeminal nerve are common during surgical procedures in the jaws and teeth, and as the repercussion of facial fractures or certain pathologies. A portion of these patients are left with disturbed sensory functions, and some with unpleasant abnormal sensations, including pain. LÄS MER

  3. 3. On The Innervation of Salivary Glands and Treatment of Dry Mouth - An Experimental and Clinical Study

    Författare :Nina Khosravani; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parotid gland; Denervation; Acetylcholine synthesis; Otic ganglion; Auriculo-temporal nerve; Facial nerve; Neuropeptides; Salivary gland hypofunction; Physostigmine;

    Sammanfattning : Detailed knowledge of the innervation of the parotid gland is essential in basic studies on various neuroglandular phenomena as well as in various types of orofacial surgery. The innervation is more complex than usually depicted in Textbooks. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Neuropeptides, 'gaseous' messengers and classic transmitters : electrophysiological and histochemical studies on coexistence and interactions in the nervous system

    Författare :Zhi-Qing David Xu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Dorsal root ganglion; galanin; hippocampus; 5-hydroxytryptamine; locus coeruleus; nerve injury; nitric oxide; noradrenaline.;

    Sammanfattning : The distribution and functional role of neuropeptides were studied, with special reference to galanin (GAL) and the free radical nitric oxide (NO). In developing systems GAL expression was observed already at E14 in trigeminal and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and at E15 in sensory epithelia in ear, eye and nose, as well as at E19 during bone formation.

  5. 5. Expression and regulation of neuronal messenger molecules : focus on the NO-cGMP pathway and galanin in autonomic and sensory neurons

    Författare :Kristina Holmberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :adrenal gland; autonomic ganglia; cGMP; dorsal root ganglion; galanin; immunohistochemistry; in situ hybridization; nerve growth factor; neuropeptides; nitric oxide synthase; sodium nitroprusside; transgenic mice;

    Sammanfattning : The autonomic nervous system consists of the sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric divisions. The sympathetic pre- and paravertebral neurons are in principle of noradrenergic phenotype. However, originally pharmacological experiments indicated that sympathetic fibers projecting to the sweat glands are cholinergic. LÄS MER
