  4. 2. Sequestration, virulence, and future interventions in Plasmodium falciparum malaria

    Author : Fredrik Pettersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Severe malaria; Plasmodium falciparum; sequestration; endothelial adhesion; erythrocyte rosetting; PfEMP1; DBL1alpha; animal model; vaccine; adjuvant treatment;

    Abstract : The Plasmodium falciparum infected erythrocyte (iRBC) withdraws from the peripheral circulation to hide in the deep microvasculature during maturation. This phenomena, referred to as sequestration, is believed to cause extensive clogging of the vessels and contribute to die development of severe malaria. READ MORE

  5. 3. Swedish infrastructure policy and planning - conditions for sustainability

    Author : Fredrik Pettersson; Miljö- och energisystem; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Infrastructure; policy; planning; sustainability;

    Abstract : Sustainability has been on the agenda for decades. Yet it is not evident that the development we are witnessing can qualify as sustainable. Departing from an understanding of the adoption of sustainability as an on-going, unfinished process the thesis explores conditions for sustainability in Swedish transport infrastructure policy and planning.

  6. 4. Synthesis, Pharmacological Characterization and QSAR Modelling of 4-Phenylpiperidines and 4-Phenylpiperazines Effects on the dopaminergic neurotransmission in vivo

    Author : Fredrik Pettersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dopamine; D2; monoamine oxidase; DOPAC; in vivo; QSAR; dopaminergic stabilizer;

    Abstract : The endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) is involved in several functions that are controlled from the central nervous system (CNS), for example behaviour, memory, cognition and reward. A disturbed dopaminergic neurotransmission may lead to many severe conditions, such as schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or Parkinson's disease (PD). READ MORE

  7. 5. The economics of power generation and climate policy

    Author : Fredrik Pettersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of an introduction and six self-contained papers addressing the economics of electric power generation and climate policy. Paper I explores systematically the use of spatial econometric techniques in testing for convergence of CO2 emissions per capita across countries. READ MORE
