  2. 16. Multivariate analyses of proteomic and metabolomic patterns in brain tumors

    Author : Carl Wibom; A Tommy Bergenheim; Henrik Antti; Mikael Johansson; Janne Lehtiö; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : glioblastoma; meningioma; proteomics; metabolomics; multivariate analyses; onkologi; Oncology;

    Abstract : Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor. Given the current standard of care, the prognosis for patients diagnosed with this disease is still poor. There consequently exists a need to improve current treatments, as well as to develop new ones. READ MORE

  4. 17. Influence of the microflora on gastrointestinal nitric oxide generation : studies in newborn infants and germ-free animals

    Author : Tanja Sobko; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Nitrite; nitrate; IBD; lactobacilli; probiotics; germ-free; SCFA; H 2; newborn infants;

    Abstract : Interactions between intestinal bacteria and the host play an important role in physiological regulation of gut function and in development of various diseases. Nitric oxide (NO) exhibits a variety of biological actions in the gut including regulation of regional blood flow, gut motility, water and electrolyte transport and immunity. READ MORE

    Abstract : The catecholamines norepinephrine and its biosynthetic precursor dopamine are two principal neurotransmitters in the human central nervous system (CNS). Moreover, norepinephrine is a major transmitter substance in the peripheral, autonomic nervous system. READ MORE

  6. 19. Nasal airway nitric oxide : methodological aspects and influence of inflammation

    Author : Jörgen Palm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Asthma; breath test; exhaled air; rhinitis; sinuses; sinusitis; diurnal variation; gender; nasal; oral; nitric oxide; volume flow rate; AIDS; HIV; endotoxin; gut; human; shock; allergy.;

    Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenously formed free radical gas involved in numerous biological processes. In 1991 NO was discovered to be present in exhaled air of humans. Soon after, it was reported that the largest amounts of NO were found in the upper airways, and that the levels of NO were increased in the lower airways of patients with asthma. READ MORE

  7. 20. Role of ion and water channels for lung growth in congenital diaphragmatic hernia

    Author : Andreas Ringman Uggla; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Early lung development is based on a continuous cross-talk of growth and transcription factors between the developing lung bud and the surrounding parenchyma. Throughout fetal life, pulmonary growth and differentiation depend on Cl- driven lung liquid secretion. READ MORE
