2. 1. Anastomotic leakage in colorectal surgery : early diagnosis and treatment with stent

   Author : Ioannis Oikonomakis; Kjell Jansson; Tal M. Hörer; Pär Myrelid; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; anastomotic leakage; colorectal cancer; intraperitoneal microdialysis; cytokines; mRNA analysis; stent;

   Abstract : Every year inn Sweden more than 6000 individuals are diagnosed with colorectal cancer and more than 5000 operations are performed. Anastomotic leakage (AL) is the most dreaded complication in colorectal surgery and has a great impact on postoperative morbidity and mortality. READ MORE

4. 2. Stress in chickens : Effects of domestication and early experience on behaviour and welfare

   Author : Maria Ericsson; Per Jensen; Linda Keeling; Bjarne Braastad; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : The domestication is the process where animals have adapted to human conditions. A prerequisite for domestication is tame behaviour towards humans and subsequently, selection for other desirable traits took place which led to changes in several behavioural and physiological parameters.

5. 3. Behavioural and biochemical pharmacology of adenosine/dopamine receptor/receptor interaction

   Author : Roberto Rimondini-Giorgini; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Adenosine; A; receptors; A2A receptors; dopamine; D1 receptors; D2 receptors; mGluR receptors; striatum; immediately early genes; c-fos; junB; NGFI-A; microdialysis; receptor binding; in situ hybridisation;

   Abstract : The neurotransmitter dopamine seems to be involved in neuropsychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease. Direct blockade of dopamine receptors of the D2 subtype has been the hallmark of pharmacotherapy for schizophrenia since early 1950s. READ MORE

6. 4. Regulation of Human Papillomavirus Type 16 mRNA Splicing and Polyadenylation

   Author : Xiaomin Zhao; Stefan Schwartz; Barklie Clements; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Medical sciences; human papillomavirus type 16; gene regulation; splicing; polyadenylation; 3 UTR; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Abstract : Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is the major causative agent of cervical cancer. The life cycle of this oncogenic DNA tumour virus is strictly associated with the differentiation program of the infected epithelial cells. Expression of the viral capsid genes L1 and L2 can only be detected in the terminally differentiated epithelial cells. READ MORE

7. 5. Mechanisms of cell diversification

   Author : Christopher Winston Uhde; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Cell identity and function is determined by the intrinsic wiring of the gene regulatory network that endows progenitors with the competence to respond appropriately to extrinsic cues in a spatiotemporally-dependent manner. One such class of cues, morphogens, instruct cells in their identity by virtue of a concentration gradient, but how this is interpreted at gene regulatory levels to result in sharp and robust boundaries of gene expression is poorly understood.
