  2. 1. Modulation of Neuronal Functions : the Role of SLC10A4

    Author : Kalicharan Patra; Klas Kullander; Håkan Aldskogius; Per Svenningsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dopamine; acetylcholine; central nervous system; neuromuscular junctions; electrophysiology; monoamine; synaptic transmission; neuromodulation; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap;

    Abstract : Mental health of a person depends on the correct functioning of the brain. The brain and the spinal cord contain many types of cells, of which one important type are called the neurons. Neurons are special in the way they connect to each other to form large networks. READ MORE

  4. 2. Crossing the Midline : Locomotor Neuronal Circuitry Formation

    Author : Fatima Memic; Klas Kullander; Avihu Klar; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; CPG; CIN; neuronal network; locomotion; left-right alternation;

    Abstract : Networks at various levels of the nervous system coordinate different motor patterns such as respiration, eye or hand movements and locomotion. Intrinsic rhythm-generating networks that are located in the spinal cord generate motor behaviors that underlie locomotion in vertebrates. READ MORE

  5. 3. The corticogeniculate synapse : a neuronal amplifier?

    Author : Björn Granseth; Eric Hanse; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Consciousness is a nervous process that handles only a limited amount of information. Therefore the nervous system needs to select the most relevant input for aware processing. READ MORE

  6. 4. On the Autonomic Control of Blood Flow and Secretion in Salivary Glands. Functional and morphological aspects on muscarinic receptor subtypes in different species

    Author : Anders Ryberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Muscarinic receptor subtype; neuronal; non-neuronal; expression; secretion; blood flow; salivary gland; human; rat; sheep;

    Abstract : Parasympathetic nervous activity is the principal stimulus for evoking fluid responses within salivary glands. Concomitantly to the onset of this response, the blood flow increases. READ MORE

  7. 5. Cannabinoids as modulators of cancer cell viability, neuronal differentiation, and embryonal development

    Author : Sofia Gustafsson; Stig Jacobsson; Birgitta Sander; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cannabinoids; cell viability; neuronal differentiation; colorectal cancer; chick embryo; biokemisk farmakologi; biochemical pharmacology; Toxicology; toxikologi;

    Abstract : Cannabinoids (CBs) are compounds that activate the CB1 and CB2 receptors. CB receptors mediate many different physiological functions, and cannabinoids have been reported to decrease tumor cell viability, proliferation, migration, as well as to modulate metastasis. READ MORE
