  2. 1. Tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channels in neuropathic pain

    Author : Jenny Fjell Hjelmström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : spinal sensory neurons; nociceptor; IB4; tetrodotoxin; sodium channels; SNS PN3; NaN SNS2; gene regulation; NGF; GDNF; in situ hybridization; immunofluorescence; sodium currents; neuropathic pain models; Taiep;

    Abstract : Injury to the peripheral nervous system can cause neuropathic pain. Abnormal sodium channel activity has been implicated as a source of ectopic firing and changes in nociceptive threshold following nerve injury. READ MORE

  4. 2. Topographical study of intranuclear distribution and compartementalization of viral and cellular proteins

    Author : Wei-Qin Jiang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The nuclei of eukaryotic cells contain a number of specialized domains involved in DNA replication, transcription, pre-mRNA splicing and ribosome assembly. In addition to these structures, nuclear bodies of unknown function have been described. READ MORE

  5. 3. Neural circuits engaged in mastication and orofacial nociception

    Author : Tuija Athanassiadis; K-G Westberg; Sten Grillner; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; rhythmical jaw movements; central pattern generator; trigeminal system; rabbit; Rat; c-Fos; nociceptors; muscle pain; muscle spindle afferents; glutamate; Neurophysiology; Neurofysiologi; fysiologi; Physiology;

    Abstract : A deeper understanding of both movement control and the effects of nociceptor inputs on our motor systems is critical for proper clinical diagnosis of musculo-skeletal dysfunctions and for development of novel rehabilitation schemes. In the jaw system, masticatory movements are produced by a central pattern generator (CPG) located in the brainstem. READ MORE

  6. 4. Recombinant mucin-immunoglobulin chimeras as xenoreactive anti-pig antibody absorbers

    Author : Jining Liu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Human allotransplantation is nowadays the generally accepted treatment of choice for several illnesses leading to organ failure. A major problem facing clinical organ transplantation is the lack of human donor organs and tissues. Xenotransplantation from pig to man is considered a plausible solution to this problem. READ MORE
