  2. 6. On the autonomic control of the lower urinary tract. Functional and morphological aspects in the normal and the inflamed urinary bladder

    Author : Daniel Giglio; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; muscarinic receptor; purinoceptor; adrenoceptor; nitric oxide; in vitro; in vivo; cystometry; Western blot; immunohistochemistry; cystitis; cyclophosphamide; urinary bladder; rat;

    Abstract : The regulation of urinary bladder function involves interplay of signalling systems. Disturbances in any of the interactive systems may result in lower tract dysfunction, which is often apparent to the patient by urge to void or by incontinence, irrespectively of the cause to the lower tract syndrome.

  4. 7. Extracellular Matrix Alterations in Patients with Different Phenotypes of Asthma

    Author : Maria Weitoft; Lungbiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Asthma; Extraceullar matrix; Proteoglycan; Collagen; Hyaluronan; Fibrocyte; Mast cell; Nitric oxide;

    Abstract : AbstractAsthma is a chronic disease that affects approximately 300 million people worldwide, and the prevalence is increasing. It has become clear that asthma is a highly heterogeneous disease, with overlapping symptoms but with diverse immunopathology and clinical phenotypes. READ MORE

  5. 8. Nitric oxide : a marker for inflammation in the lower urinary tract

    Author : Abolfazl Hosseini; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The main aim of this work is to investigate the role of Nitric oxide (NO) as a diagnostic marker for inflammation in the lower urinary tract. NO exerts multiple modulating effects on inflammation and plays a key role in the regulation of immune responses. NO is formed enzymatically in vivo from Larginine by several NO synthases (NOS).

  6. 9. The influence of nitric oxide and cholecystokinin on tissue homeostasis in exocrine pancreas : an experimental study in rats

    Author : Lena Trulsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Growth of the pancreas is stimulated by cholecystokinin (CCK) in rats. Nitric oxide (NO), which is synthesized from the amino acid L-arginine by NO-synthases (NOS), interferes with CCK in modulating the pancreatic secretion. READ MORE

  7. 10. Nitric oxide formation from inorganic nitrate and nitrate : contribution from eukaryotic and prokaryotic pathways

    Author : Liyue Huang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential signaling molecule that plays a central role in a broad range of physiological functions. Classically, NO is synthesized from L-arginine and molecular oxygen by NO synthases. Once formed, it is rapidly oxidized to nitrite and nitrate. READ MORE
