  2. 16. The Role of Dopamine-Metabolising Enzymes in Renal Sodium Handling. An Experimental Study in vivo

    Author : Cecilia Odlind; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiology and anatomy; dopamine; kidney; sodium; MAO; COMT; rat; mice; RBF; oxygen; renal; L-dopa; DOPAC; entacapone; phenelzine; dopamine receptors; Fysiologi och anatomi; Physiology and pharmacology; Fysiologi och farmakologi; Physiology; fysiologi;

    Abstract : Dopamine (DA) has been shown to act as an intrarenal natriuretic hormone and defects in the renal DA system have been associated with some forms of hypertension. How the DA activity is upregulated durin- increased sodium intake is, however, unknown. READ MORE

  4. 17. Studies on Retinal Circulation in Experimental Animals, Healthy Human Eyes and Eyes with Diabetic Retinopathy

    Author : Lidija Tomić; Albert Alm; Einar Stefánsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Retinal Circulation; Labelled Microsphere Technique; Monkeys; Blue Field Simulation; Macular Leukocyte Velocity; Fluorescein Angiogram; Mean Transit Time; Impulse-Response Technique; Arterio-Venous Passage Time; Vessel Diameter; Oxygen; Carbin Dioxide; Diabetes Retinopathy; Ophtalmology; Oftalmologi;

    Abstract : The retina is a highly metabolically active tissue with large demands on the supply of nutrients. Disorders affecting the retina often include some vasculopathy with an impact on retinal circulation. READ MORE

  5. 18. Development of metal hydride surface structures for high power NiMH batteries : Also extended cycle-life and lead to more effective recycling methods

    Author : Yang Shen; Dag Noréus; Andreas Züttel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metal hydrides; NiMH batteries; Surface treatment; Ni clusters; Rare earths hydroxides; Oxygen; Hydrogen; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : By combining alkaline etching of hydrogen storage alloys or their hydrides with a controlled oxidation, it was possible to improve reaction kinetics and accelerate activation of MH-electrodes. Both AB5 and AB2 alloys were studied where A is mixtures of rare earth elements for AB5 alloys and titanium and/or vanadium, zirconium for AB2 alloys; nickel contributes the major part of B.

  6. 19. Computational modeling of mechanobiology in intact and healing rat Achilles tendon

    Author : Thomas Notermans; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Collagen; Finite element model; Mechano-regulation; Mechanical Properties; Strain; Oxygen; Viscoelasticity;

    Abstract : Tendons fulfill an important musculoskeletal function by enabling energy-efficient force transmission between muscles and bones. The tendon is a collagen-rich connective tissue that adapts to mechanical loading through mechanobiological processes. READ MORE
