Brain Regeneration - in vitro and in vivo studies of exercise-related effects on brain plasticity
(2008-06-13)
Neural stem and progenitor cells in the germinal regions of the adult brain, such as the hippocampus, are of great interest, because they provide the possibility for enhanced brain plasticity or can contribute to endogenous ...
Imaging of coronary artery function and morphology in living mice - applications in atherosclerosis research
(2007-05-04)
Atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries is the major reason for myocardial infarction and cardiovascular death. In the clinic, several imaging systems make it possible to study coronary artery function and morphology ...
The effect of astrocytes and reactive gliosis on neurogenesis and astrogenesis in mice
(2008-11-10)
Astrocytes are the most common cell type in mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vimentin constitute intermediate filaments (known also as nanofilaments), a part of the ...

An important part of the reward systems is the cholinergic-dopaminergic reward link. This reward link has been proposed to be involved in reward and motivated behaviours. It encompasses a cholinergic input from the ...
On The Innervation of Salivary Glands and Treatment of Dry Mouth - An Experimental and Clinical Study
(2009-11-19)
Detailed knowledge of the innervation of the parotid gland is essential in basic studies on various neuroglandular phenomena as well as in various types of orofacial surgery. The innervation is more complex than usually ...
Sleep, sense of coherence and suicidality in suicide attempters
(2009-01-26)
A suicide attempt is a strong predictor of future suicide. The management of patients who
self-harm presents a challenge for psychiatric services. It is therefore important to identify
factors that may be related to ...
Inflammation and neuroprotective strategies in the immature brain after hypoxic-ischemic brain injury
(2008-05-13)
Perinatal brain injury, as a result of hypoxia-ischemia (HI) or infection/HI, is a major cause of acute mortality and neurological morbidity in infants and children. The mechanisms of perinatal HI are not fully understood, ...
Cognitive profiles of vascular and neurodegenerative MCI
(2008-06-30)
The objective of the thesis was to investigate the cognitive profiles of different types of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and follow their course over time. Would it be possible to differentiate between “benign” and ...
