    Abstract : Diabetic neuropathy is a condition associated with diabetes affecting the epidermal nerve fibers (ENFs). This thesis presents analysis methods and models for ENF data, with two main puroposes: to find early signs of diabetic neuropathy and to characterize how this condition changes the nerve fiber structure.

  4. 2. Diabetic neuropathy clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Per Lindström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : diabetes mellitus; neuropathy; ischaemia; sensibility; thermal sensibility; quantitative sensory testing; mammalian nerve; ouabain; osteopenia; neurophysiology; peripheral nerve; anoxia.;

    Abstract : A classification of impaired thermal sensibility is proposed, reflecting the severity of diabetic polyneuropathy in terms of its regional extension. The classification may be a useful tool in cross-sectional and long-term studies of patients with diabetes mellitus. READ MORE

  5. 3. Activation and Regulation of TRPV1 : Studies in Recombinant Human Neuroblastoma TRPV1-SHSY5Y Cells

    Author : Johanna EL Andaloussi-Lilja; Anna Forsby; Antonio Ferrer-Montiel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nociception; neurotrophic factors; eye irritation; stable transfection; Ca2 ; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Abstract : TRPV1 is a transmembrane non-selective cation channel with preference for Ca2+. The receptor is primarily localised on dorsal root ganglion neurons and is activated by numerous endogenous and exogenous potentially irritating ligands eliciting pain. READ MORE
