  2. 1. The role of GH in the regulation of energy homeostasis, lipid metabolism and cardiovascular function in transgenic mice

    Author : Bob Olsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; growth hormone; cardiovascular disease; energy homeostasis; lipid metabolism; transgenic mice;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was, using two transgenic models, to investigate some metabolic diseases associated with acromegaly e.g. hypertension and alterations in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. READ MORE

  4. 2. Assessment of the Cerebral Ischemic/Reperfusion Injury after Cardiac Arrest

    Author : Erik Mörtberg; Sten Rubertsson; Eldar Søreide; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Intensive care; Intensivvård; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård;

    Abstract : The cerebral damage after cardiac arrest is thought to arise both from the ischemia during the cardiac arrest but also during reperfusion. It is the degree of cerebral damage which determines the outcome in patients. This thesis focuses on the cerebral damage after cardiac arrest. READ MORE

  5. 3. On age related changes in axons and glia of the central nervous system

    Author : Susanna Kullberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Aging; synaptic input; spinal cord; hippocampus; amino acid neurotransmitters; astrocyte; microglia; oligodendroglia; C bouton; cholinergic; monoaminergic; cytokine;

    Abstract : A growing body of evidence shows that phenotypic changes including axon aberrations, rather than loss of neurons, account for behavioral impairments during aging. The present thesis was undertaken to investigate the occurrence of axon aberrations in relation to transmitter identity, glial reaction and sensorimotor disturbances. READ MORE

  6. 4. Role of intermediate filaments and expression of GFAP and S-100 in astrocytes

    Author : Mei Ding; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Astrocytes; Gliosis; Kainic acid; Transgenic mouse; S-100; GFAP; Vimentin; RVD regulatory volume decrease ; Taurine; Glutamine; Ascorbate; Glucose;

    Abstract : Astrocytes participate in a variety of important physiologic and pathologic processes in the central nervous system (CNS). One of the most remarkable characteristics of astrocytes is their vigorous response to CNS injuries. READ MORE
