  1. 26. Monte Carlo approach to binding and aggregation of disordered peptides

    Author : Iskra Staneva; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo simulations; peptide binding; protein aggregation; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Staneva;

    Abstract : In this thesis, theoretical models are applied to study some aspects of intrinsically disordered proteins, i.e. proteins that partly or entirely lack a stable native structure. In particular, focus is on peptide binding and aggregation. READ MORE

  2. 27. Diagnosis and monitoring of sport-related concussion

    Author : Sanna Neselius; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatic brain injury; mild traumatic brain injury; sport-related concussion; concussion;

    Abstract : Background: Concussions are one of the most common sport-related injuries and it is known that they cause axonal and glial damage, and that there are risks for long-term effects. The aims of this thesis were to find possible methods, which may help clinicians to diagnose and monitor mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), analyse the APOEε4 allele genotype that has been associated with poor outcome after TBI and evaluate the relationship between neuropsychological assessment and brain injury biomarkers in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

  3. 28. Responses of fibroblasts and chondrosarcoma cells to mechanical and chemical stimuli

    Author : Juha Piltti; Mikko Lammi; Jukka Häyrinen; Frank Beier; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rho-kinase inhibition; Y-27632; hypoxia; cyclic stretching; human chondrosarcoma 2 8 cells; chondrocyte phenotype; fibroblasts; proteomics; protein pathway analytics; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Osteoarthritis is an inflammation-related disease that progressively destroys joint cartilage. This disease causes pain and stiffness of the joints, and at advanced stages, limitations to the movement or bending of injured joints. Therefore, it often restricts daily activities and the ability to work. READ MORE

  4. 29. On the role of complement activation following traumatic brain injury

    Author : Bo-Michael Bellander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of early death and disability among young people in the industrial world. The final clinical outcome in terms of morbidity/mortality is not only related to the "primary brain injury", but also seems to be dependent on the potential development of so called "secondary injuries", that may occur in the brain the days after the initial impact.

  5. 30. Physiological effects of apnoeic oxygenation using high-flow nasal oxygen

    Author : Ida-Maria Forsberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In anaesthetic practice, the inability to oxygenate and ventilate patients is a much-feared complication with risk for severe hypoxia-induced adverse outcomes. By administrating oxygen in the absence of spontaneous ventilation, apnoeic oxygenation may overcome these challenges by a prolonged time with sufficient oxygenation. READ MORE
