  2. 1. The cellular processing of the endocannabinoid anandamide and its pharmacological manipulation

    Author : Lina Thors; Christopher J Fowler; David A Kendall; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endocannabinoid; anandamide; cellular processing; pain; flavonoids; fatty acid amide hydrolase; Pharmacology; Farmakologi; medicinsk farmakologi; Medical Pharmacology;

    Abstract : Anandamide (arachidonoyl ethanolamide, AEA) and 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) exert most of their actions by binding to cannabinoid receptors. The effects of the endocannabinoids are short-lived due to rapid cellular accumulation and metabolism, for AEA, primarily by the enzymes fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). READ MORE

  7. 5. Radiation and Scattering from Conformal Array Antennas

    Author : Björn Thors; KTH; []
    Keywords : conformal antennas; antenna arrays; antenna radiation patterns; radar cross sections; electromagnetic scattering; UTD; moment methods; high frequency method; hybrid method; mutual coupling;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with radiation and scattering fromconformal array antennas. A hybrid technique between the Methodof Moments (MoM) and different asymptotic methods is used forthe analysis, combining the accuracy of the MoM and theefficiency of the asymptotic methods. READ MORE
