    • The ABC effect-a puzzling low-mass enhancement in the pi pi invariant mass spectrum, first observed by Abashian, Booth, and Crowe-is well known from inclusive measurements of two-pion production in nuclear fusion reactions. Here we report on the first exclusive and kinematically complete measurements of the most basic double-pionic fusion reaction pn -> d pi(0)pi(0) at beam energies of 1.03 and 1.35 GeV. The measurements, which have been carried out at CELSIUS-WASA, reveal the ABC effect to be a (pi pi)(I=L=0) channel phenomenon associated with both a resonancelike energy dependence in the integral cross section and the formation of a Delta Delta system in the intermediate state. A corresponding simple s-channel resonance ansatz provides a surprisingly good description of the data.

    • Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is often used in critically ill patients with fever and pain; however, little is known about the effects of acetaminophen on cardiovascular function during systemic inflammation. Here, we investigated the effect of acetaminophen on changes in the systemic and pulmonary circulation induced by endotoxin (0.5 μg/kg/h) in anesthetized pigs. Endotoxin infusion led to a rapid increase in pulmonary artery (PA)-pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI). Acetaminophen delayed and attenuated this increase. Furthermore, acetaminophen reduced tachycardia and decreased stroke volume, accompanied by systemic inflammation, without affecting inflammatory parameters such as white blood cell count and TNF-α in blood. As a proof of concept, we injected a high dose of endotoxin (100 μg), which induced rapid cardiovascular collapse in pigs. Pigs treated with acetaminophen survived with no obvious hemodynamic instability during the 50 min observation period. In conclusion, acetaminophen attenuates the effects of endotoxin on pulmonary circulation in anesthetized pigs. This may play a role in severe systemic inflammation.

    • Objectives The aim of this study was to confirm the cardioprotective effects of hypothermia using a combination of cold saline and endovascular cooling. Background Hypothermia has been reported to reduce infarct size (IS) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions. Methods In a multicenter study, 120 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions (<6 h) scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention were randomized to hypothermia induced by the rapid infusion of 600 to 2,000 ml cold saline and endovascular cooling or standard of care. Hypothermia was initiated before percutaneous coronary intervention and continued for 1 h after reperfusion. The primary end point was IS as a percent of myocardium at risk (MaR), assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 4 +/- 2 days. Results Mean times from symptom onset to randomization were 129 +/- 56 min in patients receiving hypothermia and 132 +/- 64 min in controls. Patients randomized to hypothermia achieved a core body temperature of 34.7 degrees C before reperfusion, with a 9-min longer door-to-balloon time. Median IS/MaR was not significantly reduced (hypothermia: 40.5% [interquartile range: 29.3% to 57.8%; control: 46.6% [interquartile range: 37.8% to 63.4%]; relative reduction 13%; p = 0.15). The incidence of heart failure was lower with hypothermia at 45 +/- 15 days (3% vs. 14%, p < 0.05), with no mortality. Exploratory analysis of early anterior infarctions (0 to 4 h) found a reduction in IS/MaR of 33% (p < 0.05) and an absolute reduction of IS/left ventricular volume of 6.2% (p = 0.15). Conclusions Hypothermia induced by cold saline and endovascular cooling was feasible and safe, and it rapidly reduced core temperature with minor reperfusion delay. The primary end point of IS/MaR was not significantly reduced. Lower incidence of heart failure and a possible effect in patients with early anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions need confirmation.

    • In the randomized rapid intravascular cooling in myocardial infarction as adjunctive to percutaneous coronary intervention (RAPID MI-ICE) and rapid endovascular catheter core cooling combined with cold saline as an adjunct to percutaneous coronary intervention for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction CHILL-MI studies, hypothermia was rapidly induced in conscious patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by a combination of cold saline and endovascular cooling. Twenty patients in RAPID MI-ICE and 120 in CHILL-MI with large STEMIs, scheduled for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within <6 hours after symptom onset were randomized to hypothermia induced by rapid infusion of 600-2000mL cold saline combined with endovascular cooling or standard of care. Hypothermia was initiated before PCI and continued for 1-3 hours after reperfusion aiming at a target temperature of 33 degrees C. The primary endpoint was myocardial infarct size (IS) as a percentage of myocardium at risk (IS/MaR) assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 4 +/- 2 days. Patients randomized to hypothermia treatment achieved a mean core body temperature of 34.7 degrees C before reperfusion. Although significance was not achieved in CHILL-MI, in the pooled analysis IS/MaR was reduced in the hypothermia group, relative reduction (RR) 15% (40.5, 28.0-57.6 vs. 46.6, 36.8-63.8, p=0.046, median, interquartile range [IQR]). IS/MaR was predominantly reduced in early anterior STEMI (0-4h) in the hypothermia group, RR=31% (40.5, 28.8-51.9 vs. 59.0, 45.0-67.8, p=0.01, median, IQR). There was no mortality in either group. The incidence of heart failure was reduced in the hypothermia group (2 vs. 11, p=0.009). Patients with large MaR (>30% of the left ventricle) exhibited significantly reduced IS/MaR in the hypothermia group (40.5, 27.0-57.6 vs. 55.1, 41.1-64.4, median, IQR; hypothermia n=42 vs. control n=37, p=0.03), while patients with MaR<30% did not show effect of hypothermia (35.8, 28.3-57.5 vs. 38.4, 27.4-59.7, median, IQR; hypothermia n=15 vs. control n=19, p=0.50). The prespecified pooled analysis of RAPID MI-ICE and CHILL-MI indicates a reduction of myocardial IS and reduction in heart failure by 1-3 hours with endovascular cooling in association with primary PCI of acute STEMI predominantly in patients with large area of myocardium at risk.

  • Characterization of Centrally Expressed Solute Carriers : Histological and Functional Studies with Transgenic Mice
  • 2016
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • The Solute Carrier (SLC) superfamily is the largest group of membrane-bound transporters, currently with 456 transporters in 52 families. Much remains unknown about the tissue distribution and function of many of these transporters. The aim of this thesis was to characterize select SLCs with emphasis on tissue distribution, cellular localization, and function.       In paper I, we studied the leucine transporter B0AT2 (Slc6a15). Localization of B0AT2 and Slc6a15 in mouse brain was determined using in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC), localizing it to neurons, epithelial cells, and astrocytes. Furthermore, we observed a lower reduction of food intake in Slc6a15 knockout mice (KO) upon intraperitoneal injections with leucine, suggesting B0AT2 is involved in mediating the anorexigenic effects of leucine.     In paper II, we studied the postnatal, forebrain-specific deletion of Slcz1, belonging to the SLC18 family, in conditional KO mice (cKO). We observed a decreased response to diazepam and a higher neuronal activity in cortex and hippocampus of cKO mice, as well as an impairment in short-term recognition memory. Intracellular expression was found in neurons but not astrocytes with IHC, indicating SLCZ1 is implicated in neuronal regulation of locomotion and memory.    In paper III, we performed the first detailed histological analysis of PAT4, a transporter belonging to the SLC36 family, involved in the activation of mTOR complex 1 on lysosomes. We found abundant Slc36a4 mRNA and PAT4 expression in mouse brain, using ISH and IHC. We used IHC to localize PAT4 to both inhibitory and excitatory neurons and epithelial cells. We also found both intracellular- and plasmalemmal expression and partial colocalization of PAT4 with lysosomal markers.    Lastly, in paper IV, we provided the first tissue mapping of orphan transporter MCT14 (SLC16A14). Using qPCR, we detected moderate to high Slc16a14 mRNA in the central nervous system and kidney. We found widespread Slc16a14 and MCT14 in mouse brain using ISH and IHC. We also found MCT14 to have intracellular and plasmalemmal expression in mainly excitatory but also inhibitory neurons, as well as epithelial cells. We found MCT14 to be most closely related to MCT8, MCT2 and MCT9, suggesting a similar role for this transporter.

  • Excitation of the Roper resonance in single- and double-pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions
  • 2008
  • Ingår i: European Physical Journal A. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6001 .- 1434-601X. ; 35:3, s. 317-319

    • In most investigations the Roper resonance is sensed only very indirectly via complex partial-wave analyses. We find indications for its excitation in the invariant n pi(+) mass spectrum of the pp -> np pi(+) reaction at M approximate to 1360 MeV with a width of approximate to 150 MeV . The values fit very favorably to the most recent phase shift results as well as to the observations at BES. In the near-threshold two-pion production pp -> pp pi(0)pi(0) , where the Roper excitation and its subsequent decays via the routes N* -> Delta pi -> N pi pi and N* -> N sigma are the only dominant processes, we find its direct decay into the N sigma channel to be the by far dominating decay process -in favor of a monopole excitation of the Roper resonance.

  • Functional Characterization of Centrally Expressed Solute Carriers and G Protein-Coupled Receptors
  • 2011
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Transmembrane proteins are gatekeepers of the cells; controlling the transport of substrates as well as communicating signals among cells and between the organelles and cytosol. Solute carriers (SLC) and G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) are the largest family of membrane transporters and membrane receptors respectively. The overall aim of this thesis was to provide a basic understanding of some of the novel SLCs and GPCRs with emphasis on expression, transport property, evolution and probable function. The first part of the thesis directs towards the study of some novel solute carriers. In an initial study, we provided an overall picture of the sequence relationship and tissue expression of 14 diverse atypical SLCs confirming some of their evolutionary conservation and highly specific expression pattern. The focus then was on the SLC17 family (mainly vesicular proteins) and a novel member named Slc17a9. This study revealed that SLC17 family could be divided into four main phylogenetic clades which were all present before the divergence of the insect lineage with Slc17a9 having the most restricted evolutionary history. Detailed expression study of Slc17a9 in the mouse brain suggests that it is also expressed in some regions important for purinergic neurotransmission. Further, we deorphanised an aminoacid transporter Slc38a7 which was expressed in a majority of neurons in the CNS and showed that it preferably mediate transport of L–glutamine and L–histidine. The second part of the thesis focuses on the study of two GPCRs belonging to the Rhodopsin superfamily, Gpr162 and Gpr153. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that both Gpr153 and Gpr162 originated from a common ancestor before the radiation of the mammalian lineage. Expression study revealed that Gpr162 had a predominant expression in the CNS and relatively lower expression in the other tissue tested whereas Gpr153 had a more widespread and similar expression pattern in both CNS and peripheral tissues. The functional studies of the two GPCRs were done using the antisense oligodeoxynucleotide knockdown rat model. These studies provided evidence linking the orphan Gpr162 gene with the regulation of food intake– related behaviour whereas Gpr153 gene caused only a slight reduction in food intake.
