  1. 16. Nicotinic mechanisms in ethanol reinforcement. A neurochemical and behavioral study

    Author : Mia Ericson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Both smoking and alcohol consumption are known to cause severe health problems and there is an extensive co-abuse of tobacco and ethanol. The reinforcing properties of drugs of abuse may involve the brain mesolimbic dopamine system, that originates in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and projects mainly to the nucleus accumbens.

    Abstract : Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder affecting approximately 20 million people worldwide. The disease consists of positive symptoms e.g. hallucinations, negative symptoms such as anhedonia, and cognitive deficits, e. READ MORE

  3. 18. Development of Techniques and Methods for the Quantitative Analysis of Endogenous Substances by Microcolumn Liquid Chromatography Coupled to Mass Spectrometry

    Author : Ardeshir Amirkhani; Jonas Bergquist; Karin E. Markides; Fritz Erni; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a powerful technique for the analysis of endogenous compounds. The introduction of electrospray ionization (ESI) as an interface between LC and MS has contributed strongly to a trend towards miniaturization of LC, due to the possibility to perform ESI at low flow rates.

  4. 19. Spinal cord stimulation in neuropathy : experimental studies of biochemistry and behaviour

    Author : Jian-Guo Cui; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Neuropathic pain; mononeuropathy; GABA; glutamate; aspartate; galanin; neuropeptide Y; adenosine; spinal cord stimulation;

    Abstract : Neuropathic pain, presenting with cutaneous hypersensitivity, i.e. allodynia, dysesthesia and hyperalgesia, is often difficult to manage with pharmacotherapy, but may be effectively alleviated by electric spinal cord stimulation (SCS). However, the mode of action of SCS is still poorly understood. READ MORE

  5. 20. Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry for Determination of Noncovalent Interactions in Drug Discovery

    Author : Kurt Benkestock; Johan Roeraade; Renato Zenobi; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mass spectrometry; electrospray ionization; drug discovery; noncovalent interaction; complexes; human serum albumin HSA ; fatty acid binding protein FABP ; ribonuclease; ligand screening; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Noncovalent interactions are involved in many biological processes in which biomolecules bind specifically and reversibly to a partner. Often, proteins do not have a biological activity without the presence of a partner, a ligand. READ MORE
