(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 ...
(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 ...
Role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in persistent pain after disc herniation : nociceptive signaling and genetic susceptibility Restricted 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 ...
(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, 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, 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 ...

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 / 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 ...
(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 ...
