Abstract:
Alcoholism is a complex neuropsychiatric disease that is characterized by compulsive alcohol use and intensifying cravings and withdrawals, often culminating in physiologic dependency. Fundamental alterations in brain chemistry underlie the transition from initial ethanol exposure to repetitive excessive use. Key mediators of this adaptation include changes in gene expression and signal transduction. Here we investigated gene expression pathways in prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens following acute or chronic ethanol treatment, to identify genes with potentially conserved involvement in t

Abstract:
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)<br>Proteomics is rapidly achieving recognition as a complimentary and perhaps superior approach to examine global changes in protein abundance in complex biological systems and the value of these techniques in neuropsychiatry is beginning to be acknowledged. Characterizing the brain’s regional proteomes provides a foundation for the detection of proteins that may be involved in disease-related processes. Firstly, optimal conditions were achieved for the application of two dimensional-gel electrophoresis (2D-GE)-based proteomics with postmortem human brain tissue. The

Abstract:
Alkohol har funnits sedan urminnes tider och är något som de flesta ungdomar och vuxna är bekanta med. Flertalet vet också att för mycket alkohol på lång sikt kan orsaka skador, framförallt på lever (fettlever) och njurar. Men inte alla vet att alkohol skadar hjärnan och kan ge kramper samt epilepsi. Alkohol har olika effekter på kroppen. Akut kan det öka den inhiberande och minska den excitatoriska signaleringen i hjärnan. Långvarigt kan det öka den excitatoriska signaleringen, minska den inhibitoriska samt öka alkoholtoleransen. I hjärnan är balansen mellan den inhibitoriska och excitatorisk

Abstract:
Neuropeptides are special in their expression profiles restricted to neuronal subpopulations and low tissue mRNA levels. Genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms that define spatiotemporal expression of the neuropeptide genes have utmost importance for the formation and functions of neural circuits in normal and pathological human brain. This thesis focuses on regulation of transcription of the opioid/nociceptin genes, the largest neuropeptide family, and on identification of adaptive changes in these mechanisms associated with alcoholism as model human pathology.

Previous complementary DNA (cDNA) microarray data showed strong GABAB1 signals from human prefrontal cortex using an intron 4 region probe, and these studies indicated that novel intron 4 containing GABAB1 splicing variants exist. We cloned GABAB1k, l, m, and n including mouse GABAB1j. Expression of these variants are much lower than other major known splicing variants, but GABAB1k, l, m, and n levels are similar across brain ti

These inflammatory mediators can lead to systemic inflammation and organ damage, particularly to the liver and brain. Allicin is a pharmacologicall

Delirium tremens (DTs) is the most serious complication of alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) and postulated to be a clinically distinct phenotype among AWS. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in neuronal plasticity and learning related to addiction.
