(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)
Previous studies indicate that central sensitization may be an underlying mechanism of hyperalgesia and development of persistent pain. However, some individuals may have a higher risk of long lasting pain than others, ...
An unbalanced (X;22) translocation in a neurodevelopmentally delayed girl : Does the X-inactivation spread to chr22? Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)
Intellectual disability/mental retardation occur in 2-3% of newborns in the general population. In 80% of the cases, the causes remain elusive. Improved molecular and cytogenetic techniques have enabled the detection of ...
The antinociceptive effect of the FAAH inhibitior URB597 is blocked by the opioid receptor antagonist naloxone Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2011)
Previous studies indicate that inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) activity may result in accumulation of endocannabinoids both in the brain and the spinal cord. Furthermore, it has been suggested that the ...

SUMMARY
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been identified in several adult tissues and have the ability to differentiate into multiple cell types. However, not all MSC types differentiate efficiently into all lineages. ...

In the 5`UTR of transcripts of the Chlamydomonas chloroplast gene rbcL secondary structures in the shape of two stem loops, one large and one small, have been identified. The large stem loop has been found to mediate folding ...
Iron acquisition of Legionella bozemanii and possible effects of cyanobacterial microcystin Restricted Access

Structure of Thermotoga maritima endonuclease V binding to DNA Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Prosjektoppgave, 2012)
Abstract
Endonuclease V (EndoV) is highly conserved from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Endonuclease V in E. coli functions in repair of DNA damages caused by deamination of adenine and guanine in particular. E. coli EndoV ...
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2008)
In the endocytic pathway, many components are degraded. This is essential for cells in many ways, like uptake of nutrients, defense against pathogens, receptor downregulation, and antigen processing. In interphase, the ...
