  2. 1. Epigenetic changes and immunological features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

    Author : Jonas Eriksson Ström; Annelie F. Behndig; Anders Bucht; Anne Lindberg; Erik Melén; Fabbri Leonardo M.; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; COPD; immunology; epigenetics; KOLIN; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine; immunologi; Immunology; medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Abstract : Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogenous and chronic inflammatory syndrome with the lungs as its main target organ. Clinically, COPD is characterized by airflow limitation, chronic respiratory symptoms, and many extrapulmonary comorbidities. READ MORE

  4. 2. A Systems Biological Approach to Parkinson's Disease

    Author : Katharina F. Heil; Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski; Olivia Eriksson; J. Douglas Armstrong; Oksana Sorokina; Nigel Williams; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Parkinson s Disease; Neuroscience; Bioinformatics; Network Analysis; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the Western world. Itshows a high degree of genetic and phenotypic complexity with many implicated factors, various diseasemanifestations but few clear causal links. Ongoing research has identified a growing number of molecularalterations linked to the disease. READ MORE

  5. 3. Neurotoxic Effects of Nicotine During Neonatal Brain Development : Critical Period and Adult Susceptibility

    Author : Emma Ankarberg; Per Eriksson; Richard F. Seegal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; nicotine; neonatal development; behaviour; nicotinic receptors; susceptibility; cholinergic system; paraoxon; PBDE; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : This thesis examined neurotoxic effects of nicotine exposure during a defined critical period of neonatal brain development in mice.In our environment there are numerous hazardous contaminants that an individual can be exposed to during its entire lifetime. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modelling of cavity partial discharges at variable applied frequency

    Author : Cecilia Forssén; Roland Eriksson; Hans Edin; Peter H.F. Morshuis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; partial discharges; measurements; modelling; variable frequency; cavities; disc-shaped; polycarbonate; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : The presence of partial discharges (PD) in high voltage components is generally a sign of defects and degradation in the electrical insulation. To diagnose the condition of high voltage insulation, PD measurements is commonly used. READ MORE

  7. 5. Non-collinear Magnetism in d- and f-electron Systems

    Author : Raquel Lizárraga Jurado; Olle Eriksson; Lars Nordström; Axel Svane; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Non-collinear magnetism; spin spirals; first principles; density functional theory; Fermi surfaces; electronic structure; f-electron systems; Fysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, non-collinear magnetism has been studied by using density functional theory and the augmented plane wave method with local orbitals (APW+lo). Two conditions for non-collinear instabilities have been identified in this thesis. First, the Fermi energy should cut through both spin up and down states. READ MORE
