  1. 1. Chloride Homeostasis in Central Neurons

    Author : Tushar Yelhekar; Staffan Johansson; Michael Druzin; Merab Kokaia; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chloride concentration; current-voltage relation; interpolation; voltage ramp; reversal potential; [Cl–]i recovery; KCC2; extracellular matrix; GABAA receptor; chloride leak conductance; neurosteroid; fysiologi; Physiology;

    Abstract : The overall aim of the present thesis is to clarify the control of intracellular chloride homeostasis in central neurons, because of the critical role of chloride ions (Cl–) for neuronal function. Normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) depends on a delicate balance between neuronal excitation and inhibition. READ MORE

  2. 2. Mathematical Modelling of Cerebral Metabolism : From Ion Channels to Metabolic Fluxes

    Author : Nicolas Sundqvist; Gunnar Cedersund; Maria Engström; Roland Nilsson; Sebastian Sten; João Duarte; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The brain is the most metabolically active organ in the human body and therefore rely on a continuous supply of oxygen and glucose. Neuronal stimulation in specific regions of the leads to the firing of action potentials, a process facilitated by voltage-gated ion channels in the neurons’ cell membranes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Precursors and defect control for halogenated CVD of thick SiC epitaxial layers

    Author : Milan Yazdanfar; Erik Janzén; Olle Kordina; Henrik Pedersen; Stephen Saddow; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide (SiC) is a very hard semiconductor material with wide band gap, high breakdown electric field strength, high thermal conductivity and high saturation electron drift velocity making it a promising material for high frequency and high power devices. The performance of electrical devices is strongly dependent on the quality, doping level and thickness of the grown epitaxial layers. READ MORE
