(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is an early-onset and highly heritable human psychiatric disorder with negative adult outcomes. ADHD affects about 2 to 5 % of all children, mainly boys. The clinical symptoms ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)Den interbulbære forbindelsen mellom de to luktelappene er en nerveforbindelse vi ikke vet så mye om. Anatomiske studier allerede på slutten av 1800-tallet viste at det finnes nevroner som projiserer mellom de to luktelappene ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)The crucian carp (Carassius carassius) has an exceptional ability to tolerate anoxia, being able to survive without oxygen for several months at low temperatures. In response to low oxygen levels the crucian carp reduces ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2007)The crucian carp survives anoxia with the brain turned on. In such a state it is crucial to lower energy expenditures. This can be achieved by lowering the permeability of ionotropic receptors such as the N-metyl-D-aspartate ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)Karuss (Carassius carassius L.) innehar den unike evnen blandt vertebrater å opprettholde hjerte kapasiteten på normoksisk nivå under langvarig eksponering til anoxia. Denne master oppgaven undersøker hypotesen om at dette ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)Antimicrobial peptides are produced by nearly all organisms. Certain antimicrobial peptides from multicellular animals also kill a variety of tumour cells at concentrations not affecting normal eukaryotic cells. Recently, ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2007)Abstract Hematopoietic stem cells have been proposed as being able to give rise to cells of non-hematopoietic lineages. Several reports show that HSC are able to differentiate into neural cells both in vivo and in ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)Glucose metabolism in crucian carp exposed to 3 days of hypoxia was studied using 14C-2-deoxyglucose (14C-DG) as a tracer. Four brain areas were investigated by autoradiography; telencephalon, optic tectum, cerebellum and ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)Mechanical factors are important in the regulation of muscle phenotype. Adaptation of structural and mechanical proteins to withstand increased load and cope with increased work is needed in a muscle exposed to mechanical ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)The effects of VEGF on skeletal muscle phenotype in adult rats. Skeletal muscle has an exceptional ability to adapt to different usage. Phenotype transformation is mainly dependent on the changes of firing pattern from ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2007)Adult neurogenesis has been subject to increasing interest over the past decades. In fish, this ability to create new neurons is impressive compared to most other vertebrate taxa. Several factors are known to influence ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2006)The crucian carp (Carassius carassius) manage to live without oxygen for months at low temperatures, and the only way to produce ATP is through the glycolytic pathway, which yields less than 10% of the ATP formed through ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)The high densities of receptors found in synapses are crucial for effective transmission between a nerve and its target cell. At the neuromuscular junctions, acetylcholine is the transmitter substance and its receptor, the ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)Glutamat er kvantitativt den dominerende eksitatoriske nevrotransmitteren i sentralnervesystemet (CNS) hos pattedyr, og er sannsynligvis involvert i de fleste aspekter ved normal hjernefunksjon, inkludert hukommelse og ...

Odorant-specific endocytosis : Mapping the connectivity within the olfactory system in crucian carp, Carassius carassiusRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2011)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)Adult skeletal muscle fibers show an ability to undergo phenotypic alterations without cell death or regeneration in response to environmental changes. Important factors affecting the metabolic and contractile properties ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2006)A unique characteristic of skeletal muscle is its diversity, reflected in the fibre type composition of muscles and in the heterogeneity of different fibre types. Mammalian skeletal muscle has a remarkable capacity to ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)The myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) are a group of muscle specific transcription factors important during determination and differentiation of muscle fibers. In adult muscle two of the members, MyoD and myogenin, are ...
-
Role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in persistent pain after disc herniation : nociceptive signaling and genetic susceptibilityRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)Low back pain and sciatica after disc herniation may be caused by mechanical compression of the nerve roots, but also by the release of inflammatory substances from nucleus pulposus (NP) of the herniated disc. In the present ...
