Molecular dynamics of protein-nucleic acid complexes
(2010-04-16)
of the BII state of the phosphate backbone is of major importance. In paper III we showed that by inverting a central GC base pair, the backbone shifted from BII to BI conformation due to a rearrangement of the R177 side chain. In the wild type structure R177...
Wnt signaling affects cell adhesion and neuronal differentiation
(2008-05-23)
The mammalian central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and the spinal cord. The entire CNS is derived from the walls of a fluid-filled neural tube that is formed at an early stage of embryonic development. The ...
Teleost retina : a model to study neurogenesis and angiogenesis
(2009-03-09)
Teleost models, zebrafish and medaka have become popular models to study
various aspects of developmental biology and genetics. The rapid
embryonic development, transparent embryos and the availability of many
mutants ...
Intramuscular or periosteal acupuncture for patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain in the neck and low back : effects on pain, physical and psychological functioning
(2008-10-23)
Background: Periosteal acupuncture has shown promising results in the
clinic. No studies of effects in patients with chronic pain in the neck
and low back are today available.

Wrist ligaments : innervation patterns and ligamento-muscular reflexes
(2008-09-19)
Objectives: The principal role of wrist stability is to facilitate the
dexterous hand in a multitude of functions. To achieve joint stability,
in general, a fine interaction of both static and dynamic elements is ...
Leukocyte activation in newborns in relation to prenatal stress
(2009-11-05)
The aim of this project is to describe the pattern of innate immunity responses at birth with focus on the recruitment of leukocytes such as eosinophils and neutrophils and their content of cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide ...

(2010-03-19)
Aim: The objective of the thesis was to describe the most common causes of
substandard care during labour contributing to severe asphyxia or
neonatal death, to study risk factors related to asphyxia associated with
substandard ...
Activities with balance limitations among patients with perpheral arthritis : description and assessment
(2008-08-25)
Background and aim: Patients with peripheral arthritis (PA) have several
impairments that can influence balance and be risk factors for falls and
fear of falling. Since disability varies among these patients, we need ...
Mass spectrometric investigation of intoxications with plant-derived psychoactive substances
(2009-05-08)
The flora of the world contains many plants and fungi with stimulant, hallucinogenic and narcotic effects. For centuries, many of these have been used in initiation rites, physical and spiritual healing and rites of ...
Neurotransmitter phenotypes of neurons in the spinal cord and their functional role in the mouse locomotor network
(2010-03-03)
Walking is a special case of movement because it is rhythmic. An important area in current neuroscience research, is to better understand the different organizational levels (molecular, ion channels, neurotransmitters, ...
